The new electric motorcycle Niu XQi3 – multifunctional design

2023 proved to be quite a year for electric motorcycles. More and more manufacturers, both new and established, seem to be showing interest in making larger investments in the field of electric mobility. If EICMA 2023 was any indication, it is clear that two-wheeled electric motorcycles have arrived and are here to stay. Among the interesting innovations at EICMA 2023 was Niu, a Chinese manufacturer of two-wheeled electric vehicles that has become well known for electric scooters and commuter vehicles designed for cities. The XQi3 marks the brand’s first foray into the world of electric off-road motorcycles. Interestingly, there has been a high demand for electric off-road vehicles, thanks to the instant torque provided by electric motors, as well as their quiet operation that does not disturb residential areas.

The new Niu electric dirt bike is designed to stand out both in urban environments and off-road. According to the company, the bike is designed with versatility in mind and features a “multifunctional, all-terrain, cutting-edge design.” In terms of performance, the new electric dirt bike is quite powerful, with 8000 watts (about 11 horsepower) of power from a mid-mounted electric motor. As for the battery, it uses a 72V 32 amp/hour lithium-ion battery from LG. Niu claims that the new XQi3 electric dirt bike complies with US motorcycle licenses M1 and M2, as well as European motorcycle license L1e, and is also fully street legal.

For an even more thrilling experience, the Niu XQi3 features a special Ultra Boost mode for “instant trips, with high torque and excitement.” Additionally, the electric dirt bike uses high-performance suspension components that promise impressive off-road performance and control on various terrains. The XQi3 has large all-terrain tires and is equipped with front and rear hydraulic disc brakes for inspiring and reliable braking.

When it comes to technology, Niu includes a range of features that make you feel like a next-generation off-road rider.
