Where it sits among folding e-bikes

Price against estimated range for 146 folding models priced in the United States. This model is the ringed dot.

At $648 and an estimated 15 mi, it ranks 97 of 146 on estimated range per unit of price. That is a converted price: the bike is not listed for the United States, so the figure is its list price converted at the site's fixed rate.

It is off the line: the G-FORCE AE has a longer estimated range, 32 mi, at $229, which is at or below this model's price. 62 of the 146 are placed at converted prices (hollow dots).
