Segway Launches MUXI, a Compact Utility Ebike Starting at $1,699

The short-tail design targets city riders who want cargo flexibility without a full-size bike.

Overview

  • Segway is now taking orders in the U.S. through its site and dealers, with Olive Rush or Dusty Sage color options and a $1,699.99 starting price.
  • The step-through, short-tail frame rolls on 20 x 3-inch tires and pairs a 716Wh removable battery with a 750W rear-hub motor rated at 80Nm for up to 80 miles of range.
  • Rated to carry up to 418 pounds, the bike supports add-ons such as a $199.99 passenger kit for kids up to 120 pounds, a $99 front basket, a $29 middle basket coming in May, and $79 fenders.
  • Built-in tools include Apple Find My, AirLock, GPS tracking, and Lost Mode, with those connected features moving to a subscription after the first year of ownership.
  • Reporters frame the MUXI as an urban-friendly hauler for short trips, note a listed weight between 73 and 78 pounds, and flag the single-speed setup as something hill riders may feel.
