The new 2026 VOLT Metro LS takes everything great about the Metro and makes it even more accessible. With its low step-through frame, getting on and off is simple, no need to swing your leg high or awkwardly balance the bike. It’s ideal for riders who value comfort, confidence, and ease of use.
Like its sibling, the Metro LS folds down neatly for storage or travel, so it fits perfectly into busy city life. Power comes from a 250W rear hub motor working together with VOLT’s exclusive SPINTECH advanced torque sensor. This integrated system continuously senses how hard you’re pedalling and delivers just the right amount of assistance creating a smooth, natural, and highly intuitive cycling experience.
The Shimano 8-speed gears make light work of hills and flat roads alike, while Tektro hydraulic disc brakes deliver strong, reliable control in any conditions. The ride quality is superb, an SR Suntour suspension fork and Schwalbe Big Ben tyres absorb bumps and rough patches, while the Comfort Saddle keeps you comfortable mile after mile. The adjustable handlebars help you find your ideal riding position, whether you like to sit upright or lean forward a little more.
You can choose from two Panasonic battery sizes, offering up to 40 miles* of range per charge, and a full recharge takes just 3–4 hours. The clear LCD display shows your speed, distance, and power level, while integrated Spaninga LED lights and full SKS mudguards mean you’re ready for all-weather commuting.
The latest evolution of our SpinTech rear hub motor technology gives riders the best of both worlds through a choice between torque and cadence modes at the touch of a button. Torque mode delivers a natural, responsive ride by matching the motor’s assistance to the effort you put into the pedals, making it feel like an extension of your own power. Cadence mode, by contrast, provides smooth, consistent assistance as soon as you start pedalling, ideal for relaxed riding, effortless journeys, or when you want the bike to do more of the work. By allowing riders to switch between these two distinct riding experiences, VOLT offers a level of versatility that has not previously been available on any e-bike motor to date. While most competing systems require customers to choose one approach or the other, VOLT’s innovative SpinTech technology lets you adapt the bike to your preferences, terrain, and riding style at any time delivering greater comfort, control, and enjoyment from every ride.
For anyone looking for a compact e-bike that’s easy to ride, easy to store, and easy to love, the VOLT Metro LS delivers comfort and confidence every time you get in the saddle.
