"The new e-bike looks very different than the current blue bikes... "... it's white for better visibility and has a longer-lasting battery with a 60-mile range, meaning less charging. It also features a built-in LCD screen and speakers to give riders audio and video instructions for unlocking and parking.

"The bike's motor has also been upgraded to offer a smoother and faster ride and there's now a hydraulic brake that allows for smoother, safer stopping."
