Brompton Unveils Electric T Line, Its Lightest Folding E-Bike, With EU Preorders Next Week

Built in London, the titanium–carbon folder uses a detachable 345Wh battery alongside Brompton’s e‑Motiq drive to prioritize portability.

Overview

  • The Electric T Line is rated at 11.2 kg without the battery and 14.1 kg with it, with a claimed range of up to 90 km on a charge.
  • Brompton’s e‑Motiq system pairs a custom rear hub motor and torque sensor with a front‑mounted, removable 345Wh battery.
  • Ride aids include Start Assist for pulling away, Walk Assist at 6 km/h for station or sidewalk use, and a handlebar controller linked to an app that adapts after roughly 100 km.
  • The bike is handmade in London using titanium and carbon components, and its electrical system is covered by a three‑year warranty.
  • European preorders open October 21 with general sale from October 28, U.S. sales start January 27, 2026, and outlets report conflicting UK starting prices while U.S. pricing is still unannounced.
