Don't want to license your scooter? Engwe has the perfect solution for you!
A few days ago, we explained in detail how to obtain the long-awaited license plate for electric scooters, a law that has finally entered its definitive phase after many months of delays. In addition to the plate, insurance is necessary, an aspect that still raises many doubts, and many in the "scooterists" community seem inclined to abandon the vehicle, hoping for a mass return to bicycles and e-bikes.
For this latter category, Engwe, a well-known Chinese manufacturer of pedal-assist bicycles, might have hit the jackpot at just the right time. The launch campaign for the Engwe Zip is currently ongoing, an electric bike designed for those who want the maximum with minimal hassle and with intelligence. Here is the presentation video that shows everything in detail:
Zip is not just a small foldable e-bike, but it is easy to transport, because it practically becomes a trolley (thanks to two small wheels on the frame that allow it to be pushed like a suitcase), and if needed, it even transforms into a power station.
The battery is contained in what looks like a storage bag, and it can be used as a power bank even while the bike is in operation, or it can be easily detached and used away from the e-bike, for example, to power a notebook or make a coffee with a portable machine.
The specifications are impressive, with 250 W power, a 360 Wh battery (with LG cells and rechargeable via USB-C), and a 7-speed Shimano gear system. All of this without compromising on safety, featuring 1.95" tires, hydraulic disc brakes, and a comfortable color LCD display for all the main information. The price? It is still a secret, but it promises to be super competitive for the sector, and until the end of the launch campaign, which will be on April 14, it is possible to register on the dedicated page to be drawn and get a free Engwe Zip.
Additionally, by registering early, you also get access to a special customer advantage of 357 euros, comprising 100 euros discount, a luggage rack, phone holder, and free anti-theft alarm, plus a special gift for Engwe's 12th anniversary. Also, remember that through our cart links an important additional discount is always applied.
