description Tern HSD Overview

The Tern HSD is the ultimate utility e-bike, designed with massive cargo capacity and rock-solid stability.

Its low center of gravity makes it feel stable even when fully loaded.

help Tern HSD FAQ

What's the maximum payload capacity of the Tern HSD e-bike?

The Tern HSD has a maximum gross vehicle weight of approximately 170 kg (about 374 lbs), which includes the rider plus any cargo, passengers, or accessories. This is one of the highest payload ratings in the compact utility e-bike category.

Does the Tern HSD use a Bosch motor system?

Yes, the Tern HSD is equipped with a Bosch Performance Line Cargo motor, which delivers up to 85 Nm of torque specifically tuned for hauling heavy loads. This motor is the same tier used in Tern's larger GSD cargo bike and is designed for cargo and utility applications.

Can the Tern HSD fold for storage in an apartment or car trunk?

Yes, the Tern HSD features Tern's folding mechanism that reduces the frame to a more compact footprint for vertical storage in apartments or offices. While it folds smaller than a full-size e-bike, it does not collapse as compactly as a Brompton and is best stored in a folded vertical position.
