Heybike has announced upgrades to its Mars e-Bike range, based on user feedback, just one year after the original was unveiled. The company is already very well-known for its wide range of fat-tire e-Bikes, and the new Mars 2.0 is not going to disappoint those seeking all-terrain design with all the features needed for both comfort and safety.
The Heybike Mars is one of the most popular e-Bike models Heybike offers, with 30% of Heybike users now Mars enthusiasts and riders. This is likely thanks to the Mars design easily accommodating users whether they want to ride down a section of muddy trails, take their bike off-road or cycle across a sandy beachfront. Now the upgraded version, Mars 2.0, has been redesigned to offer what customers’ evolving demands include such as increased motor power, longer battery life and shorter charging time, hydraulic suspension and even easier foldability.
As an upgrade to the original Mars, the $1,199 price point is exceptional value for the extra capacity and new speed class (3 instead of 2) of the Mars 2.0. The original Heybike Mars had a maximum speed of 20 mph, but the upgraded Mars 2.0 can travel up to 28 mph, getting you to where you need to be quicker, but without sacrificing safety.
Mars 2.0 can travel up to 45 miles per charge (PAS mode) on a single charge. Its removable 48V/12w.5A battery comes with a 54.6V/2A charger, giving you full power in less than 6 hours. While the Mars e-Bike had a 500W Hub Motor, the Mars 2.0 now has a 750W Hub Motor, for better handling and resistance, that can reach up to 1200W.
