Blix, a US ebike company, announced multiple updates across their lineup of commuter, cruiser, cargo, and folding bikes this week. New upgrades provide better performance, increased power, and range, improved riding experience with high-performance brakes, increased tire sizes for safe and comfortable riding, and a wide selection of new colors. Coming off a record year of 300% growth, Blix furthers its positioning as a leader in building some of the best ebikes for everyday use by combining sleek design, powerful performance, and smart utility features.
Blix’s electric cargo bike received several exciting upgrades. The new Packa Genie features a stronger 750w hub-motor with higher peak output and torque for steeper hills, an increased dual-battery range up to 80 miles per charge totaling 1,228Wh, and high-performance hydraulic disc-brakes for improved stopping power. Starting at $1,699 the Packa Genie is one of the most competitive electric cargo bikes on the market and the only electric cargo bike with matching performance features under $2,000.
“As a direct-to-consumer company, we gather a great amount of information from conversations with our customers, which plays a key role in our product development.” says Blix founder and CEO Pontus Malmberg. “The new Packa Genie fulfills three of the main wishes people asked for: stronger power, longer range and better braking for heavy loads.”
Blix also unveiled new colors for each model, giving customers options to customize their ride with matching Blix modular rack system accessories.
