Characteristics of the Niu KQi 100
Comfort and Performance
With its 36 mm front suspension, 9.5-inch wheels, and 48 V rear motor, the Niu KQi 100 offers a pleasant and high-performing ride. The KQi 100P is capable of climbing slopes up to 15% and reaching a maximum speed of 25 km/h thanks to its 600 W motor (300 W nominal). Its 243 Wh battery provides a theoretical range of 29 km, although recharging takes between 5 and 6 hours with a 1 A charger.
Safety and Connectivity
The KQi 100 combines a drum brake at the front and an electronic brake at the rear for effective braking. Connectivity allows for several options such as limiting the battery charge to 80% to extend its lifespan or selecting an economical driving mode. The off-center screen frees up space for an optional smartphone mount.
Folding Version: KQi 100F
The KQi 100F version, lighter than the KQi 100P, stands out with its foldable handles, ideal for storage and incorporating turn signals for added safety. Weighing 17.6 kg compared to 17.3 kg for the P version, it is slightly more difficult to carry. This version is priced at €349, while the KQi 100P is offered at €329.
Launch
The KQi 100P will be available at the end of October, while the KQi 100F will be launched at the end of November.
