2020 Specialized Turbo Vado 4.0 Electric Hybrid Bike - Brassy Yellow

The Turbo Vado 4.0 takes Specialized's award-winning and exclusive technology and tailors it to a package that's designed for getting you around your day-to-day life quicker than ever before. It's you, only faster.

Beginning with the integrated Specialized 1.2 motor, the Turbo Vado proves itself as the ultimate city bike. The 1.2 motor features a silent operating design with a Custom Rx Street Tune that takes the output and makes it the most usable for an urban environment. This means, the more power you put out, the more power the motor puts out, and this makes accelerations from a standstill both quick and efficient. The belt driven motor is also smooth, silent, and free of annoying vibrations.

For the Vado 4.0, a custom Specialized U1-500 battery was developed that seamlessly integrates into the frame, is lockable, and easily removable for simplified charging. So, there's plenty of power to take you to and from work, a trip to the grocery store, or even to that new café on the other side of the city (for that well-deserved coffee and cake). If you wish to see exactly how far you can go on a charge, have a look at the Turbo Range Calculator for more exact estimates.

The new wired Turbo Connect Display (TCD-w) is the best way to view data on your Turbo. It not only displays important ride metrics (speed, cadence, rider power, distance, battery level, time, etc.), it also allows you to connect the latest version of the Mission Control App for an enhanced Turbo experience. With the FREE App for iOS and Android phones, you easily customise motor parameters, control your range, record/upload rides, and perform basic system diagnosis.

To top off all of the innovative features, a worry-free spec was chosen that features Shimano 10-speed components, hydraulic disc brakes, front/rear lights, and mudguards and rack mounts.

• The Turbo Vado features a lightweight alloy frame that’s been designed with Specialized's Fitness/Transportation Geometry.
• The Turbo Vado’s Specialized 1.2 motor has been fully integrated with the frame, and it's been custom-tuned for city riding. It has been designed to intuitively react to the force of your pedaling, so the harder you pedal, the more power it delivers. With an internal belt drive design, it does this without added vibration for the smoothest and most silent ride possible.
• The custom 500 Wh battery was made to be fully integrated with the frame, removable for easy charging, and lockable for added security. It communicates with the display and has multiple modes to maximise the overall efficiency and range. For range estimates based upon a variety of variables, please refer to the Turbo Range Calculator.
