The SANYO eneloop bike. Evolution through Revolution.
The automobile used to symbolize adventure and freedom, but in today's economy, it is more frequently associated with cost and pollution. This is opening the door for new transportation options and innovation like never before. The SANYO eneloop Synergetic Hybric Bicycle is just that, a cross between sustainability, stability, freedom and flight. A unique synergistic experience between the autonomy of cycling and the assistance of technology, creating an enjoyable, one-of-a-kind riding experience you have to feel to believe.

Electric Hybrid Assisted Pedaling. Charge While You Ride.
The SANYO eneloop bike is a next-gen bicycle that transports you efficiently and effectively requiring very little effort by the rider. With innovative features such as "loop charging," which recharges the battery while you ride, and "two-wheel drive" which maintains a steadier, smoother ride on diverse terrains, the SANYO eneloop bike sets new standards of enjoyable and powerful bicycle riding.

Features:

Loop Charge- Charge While You Ride
Loop charging is the powerful regeneration function that circulates energy for more efficient use, charging the battery while you ride.

Brake Charge System
Depressing the rear brake lever transforms the motor into a generator that is capable of charging the battery. This creates energy whenever the brakes are applied while riding.

Auto Mode
In auto mode, the bike automatically adjusts to the environment's riding conditions, whether it be a flat surface, uphill or downhill. Auto Mode allows you to increase your riding distance up to 1.8 times longer.
Power-Up Mode- Ride More Comfortably with Powerful Assistance
The built-in Power-up mode increases the output ratio of the power assistance motor, allowing you to comfortably ride uphill with very little energy expended pedaling.

Advantages of Power-up Mode:
  • Allows a more stable, smooth start
  • Makes it possible to ride on uphill slopes with great stability.
  • Saves energy and allows heavier loads to be transported
  • Works at reduced speeds to prevent the bicycle from dangerous overspeeding

Two-Wheel Drive- A Smooth Start
The unique SANYO drive configuration makes it easy to ride in confidence. The front wheel is motor-driven and the rear wheel depends on pedaling force, which prevents wobbling starts and grips the road.



 


What People Are Saying:

"It operates like any normal bike and, save for the black lithium-ion battery strapped to the frame beneath the seat, looks exactly like one as well. But when you press a button on the left handlebar, a 250-watt motor gently kicks in, providing about twice the power as your own pedaling — and making you feel like Lance Armstrong on even the steepest slopes." -Gaining a Toehold for the E-Bike, The New York Times

"This model made a splash at the 2010 Consumer Electronics Show. While electric bikes aren’t exactly new, Sanyo is working to give them more crowd appeal. Between its all-wheel drive, electric propulsion and light-weight frame, the bike has a bit more zip than its predecessors." -Bikes get a tech upgrade to lure green commuters, GreenBeat

"Wow you can really feel the power, this thing just takes off and it will pay for itself by gasoline savings. It costs about 3 cents to charge the battery." CES, CNN Interview

"It's different than other electric bikes as it actually charges the battery while you slow down. Everytime you activate the pedal or go down a hill, the hub turns into a generator and that can add about 20% to the battey life." -CES, Wired Interview

"What we find people doing is instead of using the motor from home, they ride the bike like a regular bike, but when they get tired, they turn the motor on to ride home. So you're still getting the health benefits. That is the #1 misconception- it's not cheating, it's giving people the opportunity who may not ride a regular bike, to ride with assistance- going up a hill for instance." -CES, IT TV Interview
