The new 2026 VOLT Metro has had a serious upgrade and it’s ready to make your daily rides easier, faster, and a lot more fun.
Strong, practical, and easy to fold, it’s the perfect e-bike for commuting, shopping trips, or weekend rides. The sturdy but lightweight aluminium frame folds down in seconds, so you can tuck it under a desk, fit it in the boot, or take it on the train with no fuss.
Power comes from a smooth and responsive rear hub motor, paired with VOLT’s own SPINTECH integrated advanced torque sensor. This unique technology measures how hard you’re pedalling and automatically adjusts the power to match, giving you an incredibly natural and intuitive ride. It feels just like cycling, only easier. Hills, headwinds, and stop-start traffic suddenly feel effortless.
The Shimano 8-speed gears and Tektro hydraulic brakes give you control and confidence wherever you’re riding. The SR Suntour suspension fork, wide Schwalbe Big Ben tyres, and Comfort Saddle soak up bumps and give you a smooth, stable ride. You can adjust the handlebars to suit your height and riding position, so every journey feels just right.
With a choice of two Panasonic batteries, you can go up to 40 miles* on a single charge and recharge in around 3–4 hours. The LCD display makes it easy to check your speed, battery level, and power mode, while built-in Spaninga LED lights keep you visible at all times. Add in full-length mudguards, and you’ve got a folding e-bike that’s ready for real-world riding in any weather.
The latest evolution of our SpinTech rear hub motor technology gives riders the best of both worlds through a choice between torque and cadence modes at the touch of a button. Torque mode delivers a natural, responsive ride by matching the motor’s assistance to the effort you put into the pedals, making it feel like an extension of your own power. Cadence mode, by contrast, provides smooth, consistent assistance as soon as you start pedalling, ideal for relaxed riding, effortless journeys, or when you want the bike to do more of the work. By allowing riders to switch between these two distinct riding experiences, VOLT offers a level of versatility that has not previously been available on any e-bike motor to date. While most competing systems require customers to choose one approach or the other, VOLT’s innovative SpinTech technology lets you adapt the bike to your preferences, terrain, and riding style at any time delivering greater comfort, control, and enjoyment from every ride.
In short, the VOLT Metro is built to fit around your life: compact, comfortable, and capable wherever you go.
