Porsche hasn’t made a secret of the fact that it’s getting into the e-bike game, and its latest eBike Sport and eBike Cross updates make them even better for owners.
Both come with an “organic-shaped” carbon frame meant to recall the Porsche Taycan’s flight line, which encouraged the bikes’ designers. Meanwhile, the flat tubes were designed through Studio F. A. Porsche to better reflect light.
The Porsche eBike Sport is designed for the road and the company calls it “the best match for life”. The new Continental tyres offer optimised grip on gravel and unpaved roads.

The motorcycle is powered by a Shimano EP-8 engine and a 630 Wh battery, which provide “powerful acceleration”. Meanwhile, a new four-piston brake caliper at the rear is helping to slow down the bike, if you press that accelerator a bit. Little too hard.
With integrated front and rear lighting fixtures and brake and shift cables hidden in the frame, the eBike Sport looks minimalist and stylish. Meanwhile, a new smartphone connector allows cyclists to connect their device securely during their ride.
The Porsche eBike Cross, on the other hand, is the ultimate off-road comfort. The newly evolved EP-8 engine that was manufactured through Shimano is helping riders enjoy grassy handlebars, while offering great assistance on steep slopes.
To reduce speed, it is supplied with Magura-MT Trail disc brakes, while the Shimano XT rear derailleur ensures quick gear adjustments to allow it to meet the demands of the terrain. The hydraulically adjustable Crankbrothers seatpost, meanwhile, ensures a simple and adjustable change. Seating position for freedom of movement.
The front fork is supplied with a Fox 34 Performance suspension with 120 mm of Array. These are combined with the Fox Float DPX surprise shock absorber that has 110mm at the rear, to ensure a comfortable ride, regardless of the difficulty of the road.
Available in 3 frame sizes, the small bikes are ideal for riders measuring 5’1″ to 5’7″ (1. 56-1. 7m tall), the medium frame is ideal for riders measuring 5’6″ to 5’11” (1. 68 – 1. 82m tall), and the giant frame is for riders between 5’10” and 6’4″ (1. 8 – 1. 94m tall). The eBike Sport weighs 47 lbs (21. 2 kg) while the eBike Cross tips the scales at 48 lbs (21. 7 kg).
The Porsche eBike Cross costs $9,500 while the Porsche eBike Sport sounds at $11,750. Both are available online at porsche. com.
