The Trek Fuel EXe, dubbed "user friendly" during our lightweight E-MTB head-to-head test, is designed for riders seeking the same handling as a non-pedal assist bike but with mild assistance for extra power, although riders should be prepared to exert additional effort when riding with friends sporting larger drive systems.
Intuitive, well rounded handling
Exceptional motor display functionality and integration
Impressive range given bike’s low weight and small battery
Small 360 Wh battery and 250 W motor may not be enough for some riders
Expensive

American company Trek has really embraced the electric bike game in recent years. Unlike some other brands, they don’t appear tied to one motor brand and thus have a variety on offer including Bosch and now TQ.

Trek releases a more affordable line of Fuel EXe Models utilizing an Alloy Frame. Same great performance, at a cheaper pricepoint.

Mostly good (and great) news but also some niggles after almost a year on Trek's light, whisper quiet eMTB...

Light, discrete, and quiet with a great chassis, the new EX-e proves that more doesn’t make e-bikes better.
Smooth and very quiet motor
Excellent motor tune
Light for an ebike
Rides like an unpowered bike
