Electric bikes from Xiaomi cost € 425: Himo H1 is now also available in Germany

Folding mini bike

Himo H1 is one of the smallest electric bicycles in the world and should be considered a hybrid of electric bicycles and electric scooters. With the announcement of the Xiaomi sub-brand, products can now be shipped to Europe. Even with increased transportation costs, the price of 425 Euros is very attractive.

Whether this vehicle from the Xiaomi brand Himo is a foldable electric bike or a foldable electric scooter remains to be seen. Since it doesn't have a pedal, you can accelerate with the push of a button, so you should recognize it as an electric scooter in Germany.

Demo: Xiaomi Himo H1

The necessary braking systems and lighting have been installed. A top speed of 18 km / h has no objection to being approved as an electric scooter in Germany. The note does not indicate whether one of the attached "certificates" is a general operating permit (ABE).

The Himo H1 is particularly suitable for commuting because it can be folded very compact. When folded, it should hardly be larger than A3 paper. Therefore, the backpack is also easy to carry. The weight is 14.5 kg; the payload is 100 kg. The easy-to-remove battery has a range of about 30 kilometers. This should be absolutely sufficient for the intended purpose and the so-called "last mile" trip.

Buy Xiaomi Himo H1: Price and Availability

Himo is financing H1 through crowdfunding platform Indiegogo. Since it is not the manufacturer's first product, and Xiaomi is a multinational company, in this case we have reduced the risk of bankruptcy to a low level. Himo H1 starts at 425 euros. Two compact electric bikes are currently priced at 800 euros. Shipping to Germany costs 50 Euros. Delivery is scheduled to begin in May 2020.
