The Best Foldable Electric Bikes in the UK 2025
1. Brompton Electric P Line: Best Overall Foldable Ebike

- Motor: 250W front hub (Williams F1 tech)
- Battery: 300Wh (detachable)
- Pros: Ultra-compact fold, superior build quality, smooth torque-sensing pedal assist
- Cons: Premium pricing, moderate range
The Brompton Electric is often hailed as the gold standard of folding bikes, now supercharged with electric assist. It retains Brompton’s famously compact 3-part fold (folds in ~20 seconds) and 16-inch wheels, making it the most portable e-bike when folded. The electric version adds a 250W front hub motor (developed with Williams F1) and a detachable 300 Wh battery that sits in a front bag mount, giving up to ~20–45 miles of range on a charge. It weighs about 16.6 kg with the battery – heavier than a non-electric Brompton, but still very light for an e-bike.
Key features:
4-speed gearing (or an optional 12-speed upgrade) in Brompton’s small-wheel drivetrain, and a torque-sensing assist that delivers power smoothly in three modes without jolts. It uses rim brakes and Brompton’s steel frame for durability. Despite the higher weight, the ride quality is and the fact that the Brompton’s legendary compact folded size is fully retained. The Brompton Electric is premium-priced (around £3,000 for the 2025 models) but offers top-notch build quality and resale value.
Why it’s #1:
We are all in agreement: The Brompton Electric as a category leader for its ingenious folding design, quality, and convenience. It’s the go-to for commuters who need the smallest package when not riding. While not the fastest or longest-range e-bike, its overall balance of portability and performance is unmatched for city use.

2. Gocycle G4i: High-Tech Urban Commuter

- Motor: 250W G4drive front hub, torque-sensing
- Battery: ~300Wh (fast charging)
- Pros: High-tech engineering, excellent ride quality, maintenance-free design
- Cons: Expensive, larger fold than Brompton
The Gocycle G4i is an innovative high-end folding e-bike designed by a former McLaren engineer. It features a sleek modern look with a hydroformed alloy frame and carbon fiber mid-frame, and it folds in a novel way (wheels remain attached, but the frame and handlebars collapse) in about 10 seconds. Weighing about 16.6 kg, it’s impressively light given its tech. The G4 has a 250W front hub motor (G4drive) with traction control and a 3-speed enclosed Shimano Nexus drivetrain – keeping oil and grime contained in the clean “Cleandrive” system. Its removable battery is ~300 Wh, for up to ~40 miles range, and it charges fast (3 hours).
Key features:
Tech-loaded and high performance. It boasts torque sensing pedal assist, which we cannot stop praising for a very natural and responsive feel. The motor delivers 70 Nm peak (65 Nm nominal) torque, helping greatly with hills. The bike rolls on 20″ wheels with wide air-filled tires for a cushioned ride, complemented by a small rear suspension shock built into the frame. Hydraulic disc brakes front and rear provide strong stopping power. Uniquely, the G4 has a smartphone app for tuning assist modes and features like integrated LED lighting and even a USB charge port for devices. The Gocycle’s design prioritizes ride quality – its geometry gives it the feel of a full-size bike, and many reviewers note it handles and rides exceptionally well for a folder. The downside is a premium price (about £3,499 MSRP), but you’re getting Formula 1-inspired engineering and one of the most advanced folding e-bikes available.
Why it’s #2:
We rate the Gocycle among the best folding e-bikes for its innovation and ride performance, often only trailing the Brompton in portability. It’s ideal for tech enthusiasts or commuters who want a high-tech, low-maintenance ride (thanks to its belt drive and enclosed gears) and are willing to invest in quality.

3. Tern Vektron S10: Powerful Cargo-Ready Foldable Ebike

- Motor: Bosch Performance Line mid-drive, 65Nm torque
- Battery: 400Wh Bosch battery
- Pros: Powerful mid-drive, stable at speed, strong cargo capability
- Cons: Heavier and bulkier when folded, premium price
The Tern Vektron S10 is known for its robustness and high-performance components – essentially a full-sized Bosch e-bike that folds. It’s equipped with a Bosch mid-drive motor (Performance Line) delivering up to 65 Nm of torque, which makes hill climbs and acceleration exceptionally strong for a folder. This mid-drive system, paired with a 10-speed Shimano Deore gearing, gives a very smooth and powerful assist up to 15.5 mph. The trade-off for this performance is weight: it’s about 22.1 kg in total, and bulkier than most others on this list when folded. However, Tern designs it with a sturdy hinge (the patented OCL+ mechanism) to securely lock the frame, and the folded package (approx 41×86×67 cm) can still fit in car boots and trains.
Key features:
The Vektron S10 carries a 400 Wh Bosch battery, good for up to ~60 miles range (100 km in eco mode) on a charge. It has 20″ wheels with Schwalbe Big Apple tires for comfort, and Tern includes thoughtful extras: an adjustable handlebar stem to fit riders from ~4’10” to 6’5″ tall, and an Atlas V rear cargo rack that is child-seat compatible (rated to 27 kg) – turning this folding bike into a family hauler or commuter packhorse. The bike also features top-notch Magura hydraulic disc brakes for reliable stopping in all weather, and integrated front/rear lights powered by the main battery.
We love the excellent ride stability of the Vektron – it feels solid at speed, thanks in part to the low center of gravity (the battery is mounted low). The Bosch system is lauded for reliability and serviceability. On the downside, it’s one of the pricier options (around £3,800–£4,000 in the UK for current models) and, when folded, it’s larger and heavier to carry than the more compact bikes above. It’s best for those who need a folding bike that can handle daily rigorous use (even replacing a car for errands) and don’t mind the weight so much as long as it still folds for transport.
Why it’s #3:
The Tern Vektron earns high marks for its powerful Bosch drive and cargo capability, making it arguably the best-performing folder for riding long distances or carrying load. It’s ranked just below the more portability-focused models because it’s heavier and more expensive, but for many riders with hilly commutes or heavier cargo, the Vektron is worth it.

4. Volt Lite: Lightweight Mid-Drive Ebike Foldable for Easy Handling

- Motor: Bafang M820 mid-drive (75Nm torque)
- Battery: 360Wh integrated battery
- Pros: Lightweight, low-maintenance belt drive, excellent torque
- Cons: Newer brand, slightly higher price
The Volt Lite is a newer entrant that has quickly impressed our testers – described by one expert as “the best folder I’ve ridden so far.” Designed and assembled in the UK, the Volt Lite focuses on being lightweight yet feature-rich. At 18.0 kg including battery, it’s notably light for a folding e-bike with a mid-drive motor. The motor in question is a Bafang M820 mid-drive, a compact unit with a hefty 75 Nm of torque – meaning the Volt Lite has serious hill-climbing power, even more torque than the Tern.
Unusually for a folder, it uses a Gates carbon belt drive paired with a Shimano Nexus 3-speed internal hub. This setup is super low-maintenance (no chain oil or derailleur to worry about) and provides smooth gear shifts and clean operation.
Key features:
The Volt Lite comes with a 360 Wh battery integrated into the frame, giving up to ~50 miles of range per charge. It folds at the mid-frame hinge and down the handlepost, held together by a magnet latch when folded for easy rolling/storage. Its 20″ wheels are fitted with Schwalbe puncture-resistant tires, and it features hydraulic disc brakes for strong braking performance.
Despite the powerful motor, the bike is limited to 15.5 mph for road legality, and it even includes a throttle feature (for boost assist) that many will find handy in traffic, though it only functions when pedaling to stay UK-legal. The combination of mid-drive torque sensing assist and light weight means the Volt Lite delivers a very natural ride feel and quick acceleration.
Our testers highlight how easy it is to carry when folded (thanks to an even weight distribution and built-in carry handle) and how well it handles for a folder – feeling sturdy and comfortable even at speed or on mild off-road paths.
Priced around £2,599–£2,899 (often on promo), it’s cheaper than the Brompton or Gocycle but offers a high-end feature set.
Why it’s #4:
The Volt Lite scores a strong consensus as a top-tier folder because it balances light weight, high torque, and quality components at a mid-range price point. It essentially brings premium features (belt drive, mid-motor, etc.) into a more affordable bracket. It’s ranked just below the more established models above, mainly due to brand newness – but it has been garnering rave feedback from our testers for its ride quality and practicality.

5. MiRider One: Best Compact Budget Foldable Ebike

- Motor: 250W rear hub, thumb throttle assist
- Battery: 252Wh integrated
- Pros: Compact, excellent value, belt drive
- Cons: Single-speed limits hill-climbing
The MiRider One is a hugely popular UK-designed folding e-bike that packs a lot of fun and utility into an affordable package. With small 16-inch wheels and a unique mono-frame design, the MiRider One folds down very compactly – great for tossing in a car boot or taking on public transport.
Its standout appeal is value for money: priced at about £1,395 direct (and often on sale closer to ~£1,100), it undercuts many competitors while still offering a quality build. It weighs around 17.2 kg after recent revisions (the 2021 update shaved over 1.5 kg off its weight), so it’s manageable to carry short distances.
Key features:
The MiRider One runs a 250W rear hub motor with five assist levels and even a thumb throttle for extra boost when starting or climbing (legal because it only functions while you pedal). It’s a single-speed bike but crucially uses a Gates carbon belt drive instead of a chain – meaning it’s clean and maintenance-free. The lack of gears keeps it simple, though steep hills will make you work a bit more (the motor helps offset this).
MiRider claims up to ~40 miles range per 7 Ah (252 Wh) battery; real-world tests report about 25 miles under heavy assist usage, which is still decent for city commuting. The battery is cleverly hidden inside the frame and is removable.
The bike features rear suspension to smooth out bumps, a comfortable saddle, and ergonomic grips, all contributing to a surprisingly smooth ride for such a small bike. It comes with integrated lights, mudguards, and even a bag strap to keep it folded. The MiRider’s handling is nimble (some might say “twitchy” due to the small wheels, but owners get used to it), and it has mechanical disc brakes to provide reliable stopping.
Top speed is limited to 15.5 mph, but our testers note the bike feels zippy and responsive, often not needing full assist because it rides efficiently. For commuters in flats or anyone tight on space, the MiRider is extremely practical – it folds in seconds and magnets hold it together for rolling. It doesn’t fold as tiny as a Brompton, but certainly small enough for trains/buses.
Considering its low price, our testers report very positive impressions, citing its build quality and enjoyable ride that rivals more expensive models. It even won tech awards for being an “ideal city e-bike” for newcomers.
Why it’s #5:
The MiRider One is one of the top recommendations for budget-conscious buyers who still want a reliable, feature-packed folding e-bike. It’s ranked mid-pack here because while it’s not the absolute highest performer (shorter range and no gears limit long, hilly rides), it excels in offering maximum bang for buck. Its popularity and strong performance make it a consensus pick in any “best folding e-bike” list.
6. Prodrive Folding Bike(Gen 2): World’s Lightest Foldable Electric Bike

- Motor: Zehus Bike+ integrated hub
- Battery: Integrated with regenerative braking
- Pros: Ultra-lightweight, rapid folding
- Cons: High price, limited range
Formerly known as the Hummingbird Electric, the Prodrive Folding Bike Gen 2.0 is a marvel of engineering: it’s the lightest electric folding bike in the world, weighing only 10.3 kg complete. For context, that’s about the weight of a typical non-electric folding bike, achieved through an all-carbon fiber frame and high-end components. Prodrive (the British motorsport firm behind Aston Martin Racing) builds this bike by hand in the UK, and it shows in the price – roughly £4,495 for the electric model, putting it firmly in the luxury category.
Key features:
The Hummingbird uses an all-in-one rear hub motor system (the Zehus Bike+ hub) which houses the 250W motor and battery in one unit, eliminating external battery packs. The trade-off is a smaller battery capacity – it’s rated for ~50 km (~31 miles) of range on a charge. Uniquely, the system can use regenerative braking and pedal energy to extend range (the “Bike+ mode”), but real-world range is best for shorter city rides.
It’s a single-speed drive with a Gates belt (so ultra quiet and clean). The frame folds in a simple two-step process: the rear wheel flips under and the carbon handlebar stem folds down. It’s not as compact a fold as Brompton’s, but the bike is so light you can easily carry it.
Components are top-notch: carbon wheels, titanium bits, and a minimalist design. There’s Bluetooth connectivity to a smartphone app for controlling assist modes (since there’s no display on the bike – it’s all about minimal weight). Braking is provided by caliper rim brakes (to keep weight low), which are adequate given the bike’s lightness and speed.
One notable aspect is the fast fold/unfold – Hummingbird claims under 5 seconds – making it very convenient if you need to quickly hop on/off trains. This bike is all about ultimate portability. It’s perfect for someone who needs to carry their bike frequently (up stairs, into an office, etc.) and is willing to sacrifice some range and gears for the incredibly low weight.
Our testers often mention the “wow factor” of lifting such a light e-bike and its striking design. It rides well for a single-speed, though strong riders might spin out its gear on flats. Given the steep cost, it’s a niche choice – but absolutely the top in its niche.
Why it’s #6:
The Prodrive Hummingbird is frequently noted for its ultra-light weight and premium build, making it an aspirational pick. We’ve placed it mid-pack because its practicality (limited range, very high price) isn’t as universal as others above. However, for those prioritizing weight above all, no other e-folder comes close, and that earns it a spot in the top 10.
7. Fiido X (V2): Best Long-Range Foldable Ebike

- Motor: 250W rear hub with torque sensor
- Battery: 417Wh removable
- Pros: Great range, sleek design
- Cons: Heavier, newer brand in the UK market
The Fiido X is a Chinese-designed folding e-bike that gained a lot of attention for its unique frame and features. The X has a sleek, futuristic aesthetic – the frame lacks a traditional seat tube, giving it an open “X” shape. The battery is hidden inside the seatpost, a clever design that keeps the bike looking clean and allows easy removal of the battery for charging.
With a large 417 Wh capacity, the Fiido X boasts one of the longest ranges in this class – up to 110–130 km on eco mode (~68–80 miles) on the 250W EU-legal version. Realistically, expect around 50–60 miles with mixed riding, which is still excellent. The bike’s weight is about 19–20 kg, partly due to that big battery.
Key features:
The Fiido X uses a 250W rear hub motor (or 350W in other markets) with a torque sensor for smooth assist. It’s equipped with a 7-speed Shimano gear system, giving more flexibility on hills than single-speed competitors. It also has mechanical disc brakes and 20″ wheels. Notably, the Fiido X has no external cables – even the brake lines run inside – for a very clean look.
The folding mechanism is simple: the frame hinge swings the front half to the rear, and the seatpost and handlebar collapse. Magnets hold the fold. One innovative (if slightly gimmicky) feature is a combination lock keypad on the frame that immobilizes the bike electronically – an anti-theft measure so only the owner can activate it without the code.
Our testers describe the Fiido X V2 as “a superb folding e-bike” with an exceptionally smooth ride and quiet motor. The torque sensor means it responds naturally to pedaling, akin to more expensive mid-drives. With 20″ wheels, it rides more steadily than the 16″ wheel bikes, though it lacks any suspension.
Originally, the Fiido X had a recall for a frame issue, but the V2 frame has resolved this. Now it’s considered a very solid choice, blending a long range, decent power, and a head-turning design. At approximately £1,699–£1,799, it undercuts many European competitors on price.
Why it’s #7:
The Fiido X earns its spot for combining range, design, and strong value. We place it a bit lower primarily due to its direct-sales nature (support might not be as quick as buying from a local shop) and the fact that it’s a relative newcomer in Western markets. Nonetheless, it’s a consensus strong performer – especially attractive if you need long range or appreciate the sleek design.
8. ADO Air 20: Feature-Rich Budget Ebike Foldable

- Motor: 250W rear hub with torque sensor
- Battery: Seatpost integrated (~62mi range)
- Pros: Affordable, carbon belt drive, hydraulic brakes
- Cons: Single-speed gearing, newer brand
The ADO Air 20 is a 20-inch folding e-bike that has been impressing our testers with its rich feature set and reasonable price. ADO (which stands for A Dece Oasis) is a newer brand focused on value-oriented e-bikes. The Air 20 model is designed for city commuting and portability, emphasizing lightweight and low-maintenance design.
It weighs around 18 kg in practice, which is quite light for an e-folder in its price range. The price is about £999 (often on sale from an RRP of ~£1,299), making it a great mid-budget option.
Key features:
The ADO Air 20 stands out by using a carbon belt drive with a single-speed setup – similar to the MiRider – so no chain maintenance. It compensates for the lack of gears by using a 250W rear hub motor paired with a torque sensor for instant assist response. This is a big selling point: torque sensors at this price are rare, and it means the motor assistance feels immediate and smooth based on your pedaling force.
The bike has a 36V battery integrated into the seatpost with a claimed 100 km (62 mi) range. Real-world testing showed ~37 miles on a charge with mixed use, which is still very good. It also features hydraulic disc brakes – a welcome surprise on an affordable folder, offering strong and easy braking.
The Air 20 rolls on 20″ x 1.95 tires and has no additional suspension, so the ride can be firm (though the saddle is cushioned). The folding mechanism is straightforward: main frame hinge and a folding handlebar, plus foldable pedals. The battery seatpost is removable for charging or security, which is handy.
Accessories like mudguards and a rear rack are optional add-ons (about £99 extra). Our testers have been positive about the solid ride quality – the bike feels sturdy with minimal flex and is “rock solid on the move.” The acceleration and hill-climb ability are excellent for a single-speed, thanks to that torque sensor engaging the motor power instantly.
Why it’s #8:
The ADO Air 20 makes the top 10 because it offers exceptional value with high-end features (belt drive, torque sensing, hydraulic brakes) at a sub-£1k price. It’s ranked slightly lower mainly due to brand trust (ADO is newer, and long-term support is still proving) and the stiff competition above. Still, it’s a great option for commuters wanting a hassle-free ride on a moderate budget.
9. Raleigh Stow-E-Way: Trusted Brand Ebike Foldable for Daily Commuting

- Motor: 250W rear hub
- Battery: 250Wh removable
- Pros: Reliable build, good accessories included
- Cons: Heavier, basic braking
The Raleigh Stow-E-Way is a classic choice from one of Britain’s best-known bike brands. Aimed at commuters and leisure riders, the Stow-E-Way offers a solid, no-fuss folding e-bike with Raleigh’s reliability behind it.
It has a 20″ wheel, low-step frame design that folds at the midpoint and handlebars. It’s not the lightest at ~20 kg, but it feels sturdy and can accommodate larger riders well. Priced around £999, it hits a sweet spot for an entry-level name-brand e-folder.
Key features:
The Stow-E-Way uses a 250W TranzX F15 rear hub motor, paired with a 36V 6.8 Ah (250 Wh) battery. The battery is tucked behind the seat tube and is removable with a key. The range is a modest ~25–30 miles per charge – enough for city commutes. It’s geared with a 7-speed Shimano drivetrain for hill-climbing flexibility.
The bike comes complete with useful accessories: full mudguards, rear cargo rack, kickstand, and lights – ready for commuting duties out of the box. It has a simple folding mechanism (frame hinge and folding stem). When folded, it’s a bit bulky but manageable – often riders use the rack as a handle to pull it along.
The Stow-E-Way uses V-brakes (rim brakes) instead of discs, which are effective enough at the intended speeds and help keep cost down. The ride is comfortable on 20″ x 1.75 tires, and while there’s no suspension, the saddle and grips are ergonomic. One nice touch: it has a walk-assist mode that lets the motor push the bike at a slow pace while you walk it.
What you get with Raleigh is build quality and support. Our testers note that while the specs aren’t flashy, the Stow-E-Way feels robust and well-assembled, with the electrical system smoothly integrated. It’s often recommended for riders who prefer a comfort-oriented, easy-riding e-bike.
Why it’s #9:
The Raleigh Stow-E-Way makes the list as a dependable, mid-priced option from a reputable brand. It’s placed lower mainly because performance-wise it’s average (smaller battery, hub motor is standard 30 Nm torque) and it’s a bit heavy for the spec. However, its value and trust factor are high, keeping it in the top 10.
10. Carrera Crosscity E: Best Budget Foldable Ebike in the UK

- Motor: 250W Shengyi rear hub
- Battery: 313Wh integrated
- Pros: Excellent value, ideal starter ebike
- Cons: Moderate range, bulkier fold
Rounding out the list, the Carrera Crosscity E is a highly popular folding e-bike at the budget end, sold through Halfords. Despite its lower cost (typically £949 or on sale around £900), the Crosscity E delivers a very usable package for commuters and casual riders entering the e-bike world.
It weighs about 18 kg, making it slightly lighter than the Raleigh, and folds in a similar manner (half-folding frame plus handlebar).
Key features:
The Crosscity E is powered by a 250W rear hub motor and a hidden 313 Wh (8.7 Ah) lithium-ion battery in the frame. This gives a maximum range of ~30 miles on a charge. It has a simple LED control pad for Low/Med/High assist levels and no fancy extras – keeping it straightforward.
The bike is equipped with 8-speed gearing (Microshift brand), which is nice at this price point for adapting to hills. It also includes a kickstand, alloy mudguards, and even a rear pannier rack, so it’s commute-ready. Braking is via V-brakes on 20″ wheels with Kenda tires.
What’s impressive is that the Crosscity doesn’t feel “cheap” – it has a decent build quality given the cost. It has strong customer feedback for delivering exactly what it promises. The assist is cadence-sensor based (not as refined as torque-sensing, but it does the job), and our testers report it provides a smooth boost up to the 15.5 mph limit.
The folded size is a bit bulky, but many use it for multi-modal commutes where it’s rolled onto a train rather than carried extensively. While it can’t match the performance or weight of pricier models, it includes everything you need for under £1k.
Why it’s #10:
The Carrera Crosscity E earns its spot as the top budget folding e-bike by consensus. Our testers note that while it’s not the most advanced, it offers an unbeatable value proposition. It’s placed last here simply because the others outperform it in range and weight, but if value is king, the Crosscity is a winner.
