What is new?
It seems to be an epic change while preserving the beautiful, timeless design. We were already speculation these news upgrades and updates in vanmoofer.com and other social media channels like Twitter and Instagram.
Here is a sneak peek of what you should expect to reveal on April 5, 2022, at 17:00 (CET). Are you interested in the event, here is the registration link!
- New front and rear lights, probably with stoplight function
- Integrated camera below the front light
- Integrated sensor below the rear light
- Obstacle/blindspot detection, maybe dashcam and/or sentry mode
- (Warning) lights next to boost and bell buttons
- Phone mount module/port with power connection above the front light
- USB port for external device charging
- New chain tensioner system and cover (mentioned in the ‘V’ blog post)
- One-piece unibody frame (maybe without welds)
- New rear hub & automatic stepless e-shifter
27.03.2022 — If the history repeats itself, then on April 5, VanMoof will likely (%99) introduce the new lineup as S5 & X5. Since they never used the number ‘4’.
29.03.22 — VanMoof S5 spotted first time in the wild! The photo was taken by Marielle and shared in the VanMoofing facebook group.
Seems like the down tube has a new design which may mean more battery for range and power. The e-shifter seems to be moved to the bottom bracket, hopefully for stepless gear shifting.
30.03.22 — Here are the changes we were mentioning under vanmoofer.com since years. Seems like they all are going to be true soon.
01.04.22 — A new YouTube video from VanMoof is giving hints about the features.
It seems that the obstacle detection sensor is inside the smart cartridge. The black area of the rear light is likely to be the sensor. The part above the rear wheel and under the rear light has a ⚡️ icon, it can be the charging and/or the data port. Still unclear whether the S5 has a removable battery and a belt drive.
VanMoof will introduce two new e-bikes: VanMoof S5 & VanMoof A5 during the reveal on Tuesday (April 5). It’s still unclear if there will be an X (X5) frame this year.
We found a trademark application for VanMoof A5 filed in the United States on 24.02.22. It is official.
