As the popularity of mountain biking continues to soar, many companies are starting to explore the dirt-oriented sport. Audi, known for its off-road pursuits, is now making its mark in the mountain bike market with the introduction of its Audi e-bike.
Partnering with Italian motorcycle and e-bike manufacturer Fantic, Audi has created the Audi eMTB—a sleek and impressive enduro-style e-bike. Boasting a modern and relaxed geometry, this eMTB ensures a comfortable riding position while enabling riders to conquer obstacles and trail features with ease.
The frame of the Audi eMTB is crafted from aluminum and offers an impressive 180mm of coil-sprung travel. Paired with a fork of equal travel, this bike features a mixed-wheel setup with a 29-inch wheel in the front and a smaller 27.5-inch rear wheel. This configuration not only optimizes the rider’s position for downhill descents but also enhances maneuverability around corners.
Powering the Audi eMTB is a Brose S-MAG 250-watt motor, providing a torque of up to 90 Nm. The bike houses a 36-volt lithium-ion battery pack within its aluminum frame. With four levels of pedaling assistance, riders can choose between Eco, Tour, Sport, and Boost modes. The Brose S-MAG motor allows the eMTB to reach speeds of up to 20 mph and offers a range of up to 90 miles.
In terms of components, Audi took a different approach by opting for Öhlins suspension instead of Fox or Rockshox. The Audi eMTB features an Öhlins RXF38 m.2 air-sprung fork with 180mm of travel, complemented by an Öhlins TTX22m.2 coil shock. The drivetrain is handled by an SRAM GX build, and the bike is equipped with Sunstar Braking’s F.I.R.S.T. calipers and S3 Batfly rotors. Rolling on e-bike-specific Mavic DEEMAX wheels wrapped in Vittoria rubber, this bike is ready to tackle any trail.
Audi plans to release the Audi eMTB this summer with a price tag of $9,795. If you’re interested in learning more or purchasing this cutting-edge e-bike, visit the AudiUSA website.
