Tern and Airstream have joined forces to introduce a new line of electric bikes that are perfect for RV owners. The collaboration between the two brands has resulted in special edition versions of Tern’s popular Vektron S10 and HSD P5I e-bikes, which now sport Airstream’s iconic polished aluminum look.
The Vektron S10 Airstream is a premium folding electric bike that offers compact stowability without compromising on performance. It can be easily folded down and stored in an Airstream trailer or tow vehicle, making it ideal for life on the road. Despite its sleek new design, this bike still boasts the same Bosch-powered, cargo-capable features that make it a favorite among urban commuters.
On the other hand, the HSD P5I Airstream is a compact electric cargo bike that offers serious utility in a nimble package. Designed to be a small pickup truck disguised as a bike, this model is perfect for campsite errands, trips into town, or leisurely rides around a rally site.
Both models come equipped with Bosch’s Performance line drive system, providing pedal assist up to 20 mph (32 km/h). Additionally, Tern’s extensive accessory ecosystem allows riders to customize their bikes with front racks, passenger seats, panniers, and more. The Vektron S10 Airstream is priced at $3,699, while the HSD P5I Airstream retails for $5,099.
According to Tern’s GM for North America, Steve Boyd, folding e-bikes and compact e-cargo bikes are the perfect addition to the RV lifestyle. These bikes offer easy mobility beyond the confines of an RV park, allowing owners to explore new destinations with ease.
Airstream’s CMO, Mollie Hansen, expressed that the partnership with Tern aims to extend the sense of freedom associated with RV travel onto two wheels. The design of the bikes was led by The Show Design Co., with direct input from real Airstream owners during testing.
The official debut of these Airstream-edition e-bikes will take place at the Airstream Club International Rally in York, Pennsylvania. Owners will have the opportunity to test ride the bikes and experience their capabilities firsthand.
In conclusion, the collaboration between Tern and Airstream has produced a range of high-quality electric bikes that are tailored for the RV lifestyle. With their durable design and practical features, these e-bikes are set to revolutionize the way RV owners explore their surroundings.
