Two more electric bike brands have announced price cuts, with both Caofen and Horwin slashing the costs of their battery-powered bikes. Both brands are putting a positive slant on the changes, describing them as strategic assessments of the market – though they also recognise economic pressures across the sector from the wider economy.
Starting with Caofen, which claims to be “slashing prices for our electric motorcycle range, making them not only insanely fun but also ridiculously affordable.” It’s dropped the price of its F80 Adventure 11hp enduro-style lightweight to £5295, while the off-road-only variant is down to £4995.
Meanwhile, Horwin reckons it’s spearheading an “eco-mobility revolution, with strategic price reductions on electric mopeds.” The firm’s entry-level EK1 moped, with a 100-mile range, is reduced to £2499, the high-end 60mph EK3 scooter is now £3399, and the latest SK3 costs £3249.
