As for its performance, it makes use of a 500-watt hub-mounted motor from Sutto, an in-house brand of e-bike powertrain giant. Complete with various ride modes and even a smartphone app, the Sutto motor propels the HovCity to a top speed of 28 miles per hour on pedal assist. As for range, you’re looking at a 540-watt-hour battery pack that’s removable for more convenient off-the-bike charging.

For instance, you can fit a front and rear cargo rack to carry your daily essentials, camping gear, and even a child seat. Overall, the HOVSCO HovCity aims to be a dependable all-rounder, thanks to a fairly manageable weight of 25 kilograms.
