Phones, air purifiers, rice cooker, powerbank and flying drones. That’s Xiaomi in a nutshell for you. And now, the China-based brand is venturing into the eco-friendly territory with its first-ever electric foldable urban commuter cycle called QiCycle.

The QiCycle is made of carbon fibre, loaded with sensors and weighs a meagre 7 kg.

QiCycle is powered by 250W 36V electric motor and uses Torque Measurement Method ( TMM) to assist the rider’s pedal-power. Torque Measurement Method ( TMM) is invented by IDbike. The cycle is also said to be capable of understanding the pattern of the rider, and smartly adjusts to the road conditions as well.

This urban commuter is powered by a Panasonic 18650 mAh battery, and as per the company can cycle up to 45 km on a single charge.

In addition, the QiCycle comes equipped with a bike computer so that users can track calories burned, distance traveled, speed at which they’re moving etc.

It will be available in China for around Rs 30,000 but we’re not sure if the QiCycle will ever make it to other countries.
