Unleashing the Future of Dirt Biking with the NIU XQi3 Electric Dirt Bike

Twist the throttle and feel the surge of electric power beneath you! The NIU XQi3 is here to redefine your dirt biking experience. As the first dirt bike from NIU, a global leader in electric two-wheel transport, the XQi3 is a game-changer, blending lightweight construction, powerful performance, and street legality for local roads.

NIU, since its inception in 2015, has sold over 3 million electric vehicles worldwide and is listed on NASDAQ, cementing its reputation as a pioneer in the electric mobility sector. The XQi3 is available in two variants: the XQi3 Wild and XQi3 Street. While the Wild can hit speeds of up to 47 mph, the Street is limited to a tamer 30 mph.

NIU CEO Dr. Yan Li states, “The NIU XQi3 Dirt Bike is not your typical dirt bike. It is a multi-purpose city adventure bike meticulously crafted to excel in off-road conditions across various terrains, while also being well-equipped to navigate the challenges of urban environments.” This statement captures the essence of the XQi3 — a versatile machine designed for both city streets and rugged trails.

Key features include adjustable suspension, knobby DOT-approved 19-inch tires, and abundant torque, ensuring a fun and capable ride on any terrain. The bike also boasts modern conveniences like a Bluetooth-enabled screen for calls and notifications, a USB-C charger, lap time mode, map tracking, and NFC locking technology for enhanced security.

The XQi3 can travel up to 43.5 miles on a single charge, with its swappable 72V, 32Ah LG lithium-ion battery extending its range. Charging takes just over 5 hours, and the bike is priced at $5,999. You can order directly from NIU or wait until early 2024 to find it at your local U.S. dealer. Note that a motorcycle license is required for street use but not for off-road riding.

Comparing the XQi3 to competitors like Surron and Segway highlights its superior torque and battery power, although at a higher price point. The Surron Light Bee X is cheaper and charges faster but offers less range and power. The Segway Dirt eBike X260, while lighter and with greater range, lags in torque.

The NIU XQi3 stands out as a premier choice for those seeking an electric dirt bike that excels both on and off the road. Whether you’re an urban commuter or an off-road adventurer, the XQi3 is built to deliver a thrilling ride every time.
