Segway has upgraded its compact MUXI utility e-bike into a Pro version that pushes the top speed to 28 mph, making it a Class 3 e-bike. The update also brings automatic electronic shifting and front suspension, features aimed at making the bike more comfortable and easier to ride in everyday conditions.
The Pro model keeps the cargo-focused design of the original MUXI, but adds regenerative braking, which can recover some energy while slowing down. That combination of higher speed, automatic shifting, and regen braking points toward a more capable utility bike for commuting and hauling.
The source is a product announcement and does not directly discuss climate impacts. In a climate and energy context, the significance is indirect: more practical cargo e-bikes can make it easier for riders to choose two wheels instead of a car for local trips. No other sources were available for comparison, so this article reflects only Electrek's coverage of the announcement.
