Brompton e-Motiq – a new era for the electric city folding bike
For years, Brompton has proven that urban mobility can be elegant, practical, and technically refined. Their bikes are the quintessence of London design – compact, precise, and built for those who truly live on the move. Now, the brand is entering a new phase: the Brompton e-Motiq , a proprietary electric drive system developed entirely in London.
This is a major step for the manufacturer, which has collaborated with external engineers for years. This time, the entire concept—from design to motor characteristics—was developed by Brompton's in-house team. The result? A drivetrain that's not only lightweight and efficient, but above all, perfectly matched to the geometry and philosophy of the Brompton bicycle.
More riding in a lighter form
The new Electric T Line is the brand's lightest folding e-bike ever, weighing just 11.2 kg (without battery) and 14.1 kg with battery . The titanium and carbon fiber frame combines craftsmanship with modern engineering. A range of up to 90 km allows you to easily navigate the city for days without recharging, while Start Assist and Walk Assist modes make starting and maneuvering easier.
The e-Motiq motor offers 250W of power and 24Nm of torque. But what's most important is how it responds: smoothly, predictably, and with the lightness of a classic Brompton.
Original technology, same spirit
What sets the e-Motiq apart is that it was designed from the ground up with the Brompton in mind . No other motor available on the market met the manufacturer's requirements, so a bespoke solution was created – lightweight, compact, and designed to fit the Brompton's distinctive 16-inch wheels .
The system integrates with the Brompton Electric app, which offers intelligent range forecasts and over-the-air software updates. These features are more commonly associated with automotive use, but here they are a great support for everyday city driving.
Not just technology
The new drive also boasts a dedicated service center. A global network of stores and partners is equipped with the tools, diagnostics, and training needed to service the e-Motiq. For users, this means quick support and easy access to original parts.
The Brompton e-Motiq isn't just an evolution. It's a step toward a future where the urban electric bike becomes an everyday tool for freedom – refined in every detail and true to the ideal of compact mobility.
