We’re delighted to see our VOLT Lite folding e-bike featured in a glowing review by the Express and even more thrilled by what they had to say.

In a review packed with insight, tech detail and real-world riding impressions, the article praised the Lite for delivering power, practicality, and portability in one compact package.

As the Express puts it, the VOLT Lite is “a fantastic option for riders on the go,” and that’s exactly what we designed it to be. Whether you’re commuting through the city, hopping on and off public transport, or heading off on a weekend away, the Lite is built to move with you, without compromise.

This latest review shines a spotlight on several of the Lite’s standout features, from its intuitive power assist to its surprisingly zippy performance. They noted that “the VOLT Lite might look small but this compact pedal-assisted bike packs a punch,” adding that “you’ll be amazed by the oomph that kicks in as soon as your feet start spinning the pedals.”

That mix of compact form and confident performance is what sets the Lite apart. It’s one of the lightest e-bikes in our range and indeed on the UK market! Yet it still delivers the reliable pedal assistance and smooth ride VOLT ebikes are known for. The Express also called out the Lite’s sleek, uncluttered design, praising it as “a super stylish and subtle looking cycle” that doesn’t shout for attention, perfect for riders who want functionality with a refined finish.

One of our favourite parts of the review? Their take on its folding ability:

The Lite folds in seconds and once you’ve
got the knack it will easily tuck into the boot of a car
or cupboard in the office.

We know that space-saving design is crucial for many of our riders, whether it’s getting the bike into a flat, on a train, or into storage between rides. And with a low step-through frame and all-terrain tyres, the Lite makes cycling easy and accessible for everyone, regardless of age or experience.

It’s also worth pointing out that the VOLT Lite has been making waves beyond the Express. It was named one of The Times’ Best Electric Bikes for 2025, and has featured in Cycling Electric and BikeRadar, while continuing to receive praise for being a lightweight folding e-bike that doesn’t cut corners when it comes to power or quality.

a fantastic option for riders on the go.

We’re proud to see the Lite recognised in national media, especially in publications like the Express, which test products from a reader-first perspective—real-world performance, usability, and value for money.

So if you’re looking for a smart, nimble e-bike that folds neatly into your everyday life, the Express has it right: the VOLT Lite is “a fantastic option for riders on the go.” Book a test ride today or check out our UK dealer network here
