Husqvarna Introduces First Commuter E-Bike

Most of us know the name Husqvarna for things like chainsaws and motorcycles. They also make e-bikes (and an e-scooter), though until now all their e-bikes have beeneMTBs. They have just introduced theGrand Pather 6, their first commuter e-bike.

The Grand Pather 6 features Yamaha’s PW-X3 motor, which produces 250W and 85Nm of torque; it’s the same motor found in Yamaha’s e-bikes. The battery is projected to give riders around 62 mi. (100km) of range per charge, thanks to its 720Wh capacity. That’s nearly three times the motor’s wattage, so their estimate seems reasonable. It might even be conservative.

The Husqvarna Grand Pather 6 will offer riders some flexibility in riding surface. Thanks to a Suntour Mobie 80mm-travel, air-spring suspension fork and Schwalbe G-One 57mm-wide tires, it will be able to handle gravel paths and some unpaved roads. And it won’t falter in the hills, either, thanks to a high-quality, 12-speed Shimano Deore XT drivetrain. With a 40 x 51t low gear, it will make climb hills a snap.

Shimano disc brakes are paired with 203mm rotors for terrific overall control and stopping power.

The Grand Pather 6 will use Yamaha’s Display C and comes with a 4A Yamaha rapid charger. It also comes with a complete set of accessories including a 150 lux front light, a rear light, fenders, a kickstand and an MIK-compatible rear rack. Because it’s MIK-compatible, there are several companies making a variety of accessories for these racks, including saddle bags (panniers), baskets and even child seats. The Husqvarna Grand Pather 6 weighs 59.4 lbs. (27kg).

The Grand Pather 6 is destined for the European market with a price of €4999.
