Best Vivi E-Bikes (2026): All 12 Reviewed & Ranked

We've reviewed twelve Vivi electric bikes, more than any other publication, and rank the seven you can still buy from our scored reviews (the PONY01, C26UL, MT26GUL, ACE01 and ACE01 Pro are no longer sold on Amazon). The Vivi H7UL is the best Vivi e-bike you can buy (7.5/10): 27.5" mountain geometry, Shimano 21-speed gearing, a 499 Wh battery, UL 2849 certification and a 300 lb payload, for $569.83 at our last check. For a step-through on fat tires, the ACE07 scores the same and carries a 720 Wh battery. Under $500, the 26" folding mountain bike ($369.89 at our last check) is the pick: full-size wheels, 21 gears and a front spring fork on a frame that folds. Every pick below links to its full review and was verified in stock at our last check.

The best Vivi you can buy, and the best of its mountain bikes: bigger 27.5" wheels and a 7.5 against the 6.8 we gave the 26" M026SHUL that opens the same line. $569.83 at our last check buys a 500 W motor, a 499 Wh battery, Shimano 21-speed gearing, UL 2849 certification, and a 300 lb payload rating on a 27.5" hardtail frame that passes for a regular mountain bike. The trades are mechanical disc brakes, an entry-level fork and a cadence sensor, and the listing gives 22 mph with a throttle, so confirm it is limited to 20 mph where Class 2 rules apply. If you want one Vivi that handles gravel and fire roads as happily as pavement, this is the answer. Read the full Vivi H7UL review.

The comfort flagship: a step-through fat-tire frame with a 750 W rated motor, a 720 Wh battery, a 330 lb payload, and the UL 2849 (SGS) certification printed right in its listing title. It uses a cadence sensor and stays a 20 mph Class 2, which is exactly what makes it the pick for riders who want the big-battery, big-tire experience with the simplest legal footprint. It scores 7.5/10, level with the H7UL, at a higher price. $703.61 at our last check. Read the full Vivi ACE07 review.

The folding pick, and the Vivi to choose when the bike has to live in a car trunk or under a desk: it folds to 32 x 17 x 27 in and weighs 55 lb, 48 lb with the battery out. $479.95 at our last check buys a 500 W rated rear hub, a removable 374 Wh battery and UL 2849 plus UL 2271 certification on a 6061 aluminum frame, as a 20 mph Class 2 with a thumb throttle. The cuts are real: a single-speed drivetrain, mechanical discs, a cadence sensor, 40 Nm of torque that slows on sustained climbs, and a 285 lb payload limit. Owner reports put throttle-only range at 22-25 miles. Read the full Vivi 20" folder review.

The long-range pick, and the biggest battery Vivi sells on Amazon: an 864 Wh "Pro" pack on a 26 x 4 inch fat-tire frame, with a 500 W rated (1000 W peak, 75 Nm) hub and SGS certification to UL 2849 and UL 2271. Vivi's spec table lists 25 mph Class 3 pedal assist while the Amazon listing says 20 mph, so check your state's class rules before buying it for speed. The cuts are mechanical 160 mm discs, a cadence sensor and no published payload, and the listing sells more than one pack, so check it names the Pro. $521.96 at our last check.

Vivi 26" Folding Mountain Electric Bike

The budget pick, and the Vivi that rides like a normal mountain bike yet still folds: 26" wheels, a Shimano 21-speed cassette and a front spring fork (about 60 mm of travel, rare at this price), on a 500 W rated rear hub with a 374 Wh battery and a 330 lb payload, above most budget folders. It is a 20 mph Class 2 and weighs 55 lb. The cuts are the small battery (owner reports cluster at 18-25 miles at mid assist) and entry-level parts. Vivi dropped it from its own storefront, but the Amazon listing is live. $369.89 at our last check. Read the full Vivi 26" folding review.

Are Vivi e-bikes good? The honest answer

Vivi is a budget direct-to-consumer brand, and after reviewing twelve of its bikes our answer is: good value, with caveats you should walk in knowing. The consistent strengths across the line: UL 2849 battery-system certification on every current model we've reviewed (genuinely rare under $500, and the certification strict cities and apartment landlords ask about), step-through and folding frames that fit real bodies, and pricing that undercuts the big direct brands by $300–700 for comparable spec sheets.

The caveats, printed here because their store won't: wattage marketing leads with peak numbers (a "1500W" Vivi is a 750 W rated bike, and the rated figure is the one that keeps it street-legal); range claims are optimistic (our watt-hour arithmetic typically lands at half the brochure figure, and we print both numbers in every review); and the cheaper models carry the usual budget-tier hardware: mechanical brakes and basic displays. None of that is disqualifying at these prices. It is worth knowing before you click buy.

Our method in brief

How this ranking works: every bike here has a full standalone review on this site, scored on the same 10-point editorial rubric we apply to every brand: value, real-world spec honesty, safety certification, and owner validation. The order below is our scores, highest first, with the ties broken exactly as our catalog breaks them. Picks link to Amazon (disclosed on every page), which is where these bikes now sell and where the returns and delivery policy sit. We rank only bikes you can actually buy: when a listing dies, the bike leaves this ranking even if its review stays up. Prices are what we verified at our last check and move often. The price buttons always fetch the live number. One thing we do that brand stores can't: our range figures are our own arithmetic from battery watt-hours, not the marketing claim, and where the two disagree we print both.

Where to buy Vivi e-bikes

Every bike on this list is bought on Amazon, which is where Vivi's US stock now sits and where the returns and delivery policy come from. We watch these listings continuously and retire dead ones: the little PONY01 mini-folder has vanished from Vivi's catalogue and from Amazon, so it is not a live buy and is not ranked here. The C26UL step-through cruiser, a pick here until October 2026, is no longer sold on Amazon either, and nor are the ACE01 and ACE01 Pro, the torque-sensor fat-tire bikes that led this list until their Amazon listings were discontinued in October 2026, or the MT26GUL, the 50 lb step-through that was our under-$500 pick until its listings went the same way at the end of that month. The 26" folding MTB and the 20" folder are both live on Amazon, at $369.89 and $479.95 when we last checked. We earn a commission on Amazon purchases, disclosed on every page; as always, the ranking above is our editorial scoring and nothing else, the same rubric every brand in our catalog gets.

How to choose: the 30-second version

Want the best one, full stop? → H7UL, the highest-scored Vivi you can still buy, with 27.5" wheels and 21 gears.

Want the most range? → F26FUL, with an 864 Wh pack.

Capped at $500? → the 26" folding MTB at $369.89, with 21 gears and a front fork. The 20" folder ($479.95) scores a little higher but sits close to the cap. (The H7UL is $569.83 and no longer fits this budget.)

Step-through + fat tires? → ACE07.

Commuting, and stairs are involved? → the H7UL, at 52 lb the lightest Vivi you can still buy, or the 20" folder, which drops to 48 lb with the battery out and folds.

Spending as little as possible? → the GoPina mini-folder at $356.39 or the 26" folding MTB at $369.89, the two cheapest Vivis at our last check, with the M026SHUL at $399.99 the next step up.

Not sure a Vivi is even legal where you live? Every current Vivi we rank is sold as a Class 2 or Class 3 e-bike (the H7UL lists 22 mph with a throttle, which fits Class 2 only if it is limited to 20 mph, so confirm its setting), so run your state through the free legality checker or the state-by-state table in under a minute. (Short version: Class 2 Vivis are license-free in every state except New Jersey; see our license guide.)

Frequently asked questions

Are Vivi e-bikes good?

For the price, yes, with eyes open. Across twelve reviews our Vivi scores run 6.8–7.6/10: consistent UL 2849 battery certification (rare under $500), practical frames, and aggressive pricing, against optimistic range claims, peak-wattage marketing, and budget hardware on the cheaper models. The H7UL and ACE07 are the two we'd recommend most readily at their prices.

Which Vivi e-bike is the best?

The Vivi H7UL, at 7.5/10, is the highest-scored Vivi you can still buy (the 7.6 ACE01 was discontinued on Amazon in October 2026): 27.5-inch wheels, Shimano 21-speed gearing, a 499 Wh battery and UL 2849 certification, at $569.83 at our last check. The ACE07 (7.5/10) is the step-through fat-tire pick, the F26FUL carries the biggest battery (864 Wh), and the best under $500 is the 26" folding mountain bike (7.0/10), with 21 gears and a front spring fork at $369.89 at our last check.

Are Vivi e-bikes street legal in the US?

The current lineup we rank is Class 2 (20 mph) or Class 3 (25 mph pedal-assist), all inside the federal 750 W rated cap, so yes, street-legal as e-bikes. Class 2 models are license-free in every state except New Jersey; Class 3 models (the F26FUL, GoPina and M026SHUL) add age/helmet rules and aren't recognised in seven jurisdictions, so check yours with our legality checker.

Are Vivi batteries UL certified?

Every current Vivi we've reviewed carries UL 2849 e-bike system certification (SGS-tested, usually printed in the listing title), and the F26FUL and the 20" folder add UL 2271 for the battery pack itself. That combination is what strict cities and apartment buildings ask about, and it's genuinely uncommon at Vivi's prices.

How fast do Vivi e-bikes go?

Most of the range is Class 2: 20 mph with throttle or pedal assist. The F26FUL pedal-assists to 25 mph on Vivi's spec table (Class 3 territory) with its throttle capped at 20 mph. Ignore "1500W" peak marketing; the rated 500–750 W figures are what define the legal top speeds.

Where are Vivi e-bikes sold?

On Amazon, for every bike ranked here. Vivi moved its US catalogue to Amazon in August 2026, and every pick and mention on this page links to an Amazon listing, which is where the returns and delivery policy sit. Five models we reviewed are no longer sold there: the PONY01 mini-folder, and the C26UL, ACE01, ACE01 Pro and MT26GUL, whose Amazon listings were discontinued in October 2026.

Is Vivi a good e-bike brand for beginners?

It's one of the most sensible budget entry points, because the risky corner, the battery, is UL-certified across the line. Beginners should start with the Class 2 models (simple 20 mph legality everywhere but NJ): the H7UL is the best spec for the money and, at 52 lb, the lightest Vivi still on sale (it lists 22 mph, so confirm it is limited to 20), and the 26" folding MTB is the cheapest way in with gears.

How long do Vivi e-bike batteries last per charge?

Plan around half the brochure number. Vivi's range claims (44–60 miles) assume minimal assist; our watt-hour arithmetic puts real-world full-assist range at roughly 25–35 miles for the 720 Wh bikes and 20–28 miles for the ~400–500 Wh ones. Our range calculator will estimate your exact conditions.
