2026 Tern

Vektron P5i

High quality build

Quiet, efficient motor and drivetrain

Easy and fun to ride

Simple fold

Fairly heavy

Standard-spec 400Wh battery is a bit small

The Vektron P5i rides just like a “regular” bike, thanks to its smooth, responsive, and capable Bosch Performance Line mid-drive motor.

Tern designed the bike for awesome portability, with a frame that folds small, can stand upright, and can roll easily when folded.

The P5i model is quiet, clean, and remarkably low-maintenance, with a Gates Carbon belt and Shimano Nexus internal gear hub.

It has quick steering and nimble handling due to its relatively low weight and 20” wheels.

The single frame size fits riders from 4’10” to 6’5”, thanks to its dual-telescoping seatpost and adjustable Andros stem.

It’s advanced, yet easy to use. The Bosch system feels precise without adding the complexity of too many settings or an app.

The Vektron is equipped from front to back with premium components, ensuring reliability, great performance, and serviceability.

Tern offers up to a 10-year warranty on its frames, forks, and handleposts—be sure to sign up for Tern Care to maximize your coverage!

It’s compatible with a wide range of accessories, including cargo baskets and luggage, storage and transport bags, etc.

We liked the ability to quickly switch off the headlight, but we hoped to see functioning brake lights on such an urban-friendly e-bike.

Vektron models in the US aren’t compatible with Bosch’s highly useful Flow app. We’d love to see that functionality in the future.
