Quest Motors, the Indonesia-based automotive manufacturer, announced the 'Atom Alpha' e-bike. This is a modest e-bike with a simplistic minimalist design and an affordable price tag. The bike has a matte black finish across its entire body with the wheels, seat, engine enclosure, and even the braking system being completely black. To add to its sleek minimalist look, the Atom Alpha has no visible moving parts. Each part of the bike is completely hidden within an enclosure, giving it a uniform appearance.
When purchasing an Atom Alpha, customers can personalize the bike with decals, logos, text, and add-ons, such as enhanced range or enhanced braking. The e-bike features an MSRP of 15,000,000 IDR, or approximately $1,000 USD, while each customization option costs an additional $15 USD. The bike is only suited for short to medium-range trips, as its maximum range per charge is roughly 15 miles.
