Forget everything you thought you knew about snowmobiles. The MoonBike is the new age of snowy exploration—a sleek, ultralight, electric-powered wonder bike built to turn the winter wilderness into your playground.
Weighing in at just 192 lbs (87 kg) with one standard battery, this quiet little machine has none of the chains, belts, or bulky bits that make traditional snowmobiles a hassle to maintain. Instead, it has a high-efficiency powertrain, direct drive, and a whole lot of torque: 125 lb-ft (169 Nm), to be exact. It’s like the e-bike’s gnarly cousin, with the power of a motorcycle and a look that says, “Is that a spaceship?”
With a max speed of 26 mph (42 km/h) and a range that reaches up to 3 hours on dual batteries, you can take it on everything from groomed trails to backcountry paths—all without disturbing the peace, thanks to its silent motor. The heated battery box keeps things running even at -13°F (-25°C) and makes charging a breeze: plug it in at home, or pop the battery out for a charge on the go.
Designed in the French Alps and crafted by Bosch Marignier, the MoonBike is as rugged as it is refined. It’s sized to fit through doorways, easy to transport on a hitch carrier or truck bed—even at the back of your SUV as if it was a bicycle, and ready to conquer the cold.
Priced from US$8,900, it’s a little slice of winter adventure shipped right to your door from Detroit, with pre-orders open now for November 2024 delivery. Make it yours with a US$1,000 down payment, pay in full for a slight discount, or get in touch for a personalized quote.
