Stilride’s innovative SUS1 electric moped prototype is making its transition into production under the new name, Stilride 1. This marks a significant milestone for the Stockholm-based startup, which has managed to preserve the unique origami-like design from the SUS1 prototype. This design is crafted from high-quality stainless steel and utilizes a distinctive manufacturing process that relies on folding techniques rather than traditional welding. This not only results in fewer parts but also significantly reduces waste, reflecting the company’s commitment to sustainability.
The Stilride 1 is not just about its eco-friendly production methods. It also boasts a solo saddle seat equipped with its own suspension system, ensuring a comfortable ride. Additionally, the moped is fitted with a USD fork and rear monoshock for enhanced handling and stability. Weighing in at 286 lbs., the Stilride 1 is powered by a robust 8kW hub motor, allowing it to reach a top speed of just over 60 MPH. Moreover, its efficient energy use provides an impressive range of up to 120 miles on a single charge, making it an ideal choice for both urban commutes and longer journeys.
Safety and control are paramount, with Continental disc brakes installed both at the front and rear to provide reliable stopping power. Riders can also benefit from a digital display that offers vital system information at a glance. For added convenience and security, the STILCONTROL mobile app connects to the moped, offering features such as real-time location tracking, system diagnostics, and security functions.
Anticipation is high as Stilride gears up to begin deliveries of the Stilride 1 in Spring 2024. This innovative electric moped is set to redefine urban mobility, combining style, sustainability, and performance in a way that’s sure to attract attention from environmentally conscious riders around the globe.
