Design and Functionality
CityQ’s modular design means it’s built to adapt. Whether it’s cargo or passengers, the bike can be customized with multiple storage compartments or even a pickup model. The vehicle’s compact width and reverse mode make it a breeze to maneuver in tight city spaces. Plus, the sitting position mimics that of a car, which means riders get comfort and familiarity. The full weather protection — windows, doors, floor, and even a wiper — ensures year-round usability, rain or shine.
Power and Performance
Don’t let the size fool you. CityQ packs a punch with two motors generating 220NM of torque, allowing for speedy deliveries even when fully loaded or climbing hills. Weighing just about 100kg, it’s lightweight for its class but built tough. The dual swappable batteries provide up to 100km of range, so riders can keep going without long downtime. It’s designed for high uptime, minimal maintenance, and low total cost of ownership — a real game-changer for fleet owners and riders alike.
Comfort and Safety Features
Safety and comfort are front and center with CityQ. The bike offers car-like seating with optional seat belts, front and rear lights, turning signals, and side mirrors. The full enclosure protects riders from the elements, making it a practical choice for daily commuting or deliveries. Plus, the double brakes and full suspension system ensure a smooth and secure ride, even on bumpy urban roads. It’s like having the best of both worlds — the nimbleness of a bike with the safety features of a car.
