A new generation of brands is emerging in the e-bike market, changing the rules of the game. One of the key names in this trend is Motinova – a brand offering compact, powerful, and exceptionally quiet motors for modern electric bicycles. And you'll find this technology in LEVIT e-bikes as well. ⚡️
💭 What is Motinova?
The name comes from the words “Motivity” (movement) and “Nova” (new star). And that’s exactly how Motinova feels – like a fresh breeze among drive systems. Their main mission? To develop a motor that offers the most natural riding experience possible. No jerking, no delay, no robotic feeling. Just smooth, quiet, and enjoyable riding you’ll love every day.
👨🏻💼 Midea Group - Toshiba, Kuka and Motinova
Behind the Motinova brand is the Chinese company TTium Motor Technology, which has been developing drive systems for electric bikes globally since 2016. Their team of engineers handles the complete development process – from motor design to electronics and overall engineering. They hold over 30 patents and copyrights, and their systems meet the European standard EN15194-2017.
Motinova succeeded in foreign markets thanks to four key strengths:
~ Intelligence, Efficiency, Smoothness, and Quiet operation.
With growing demand, the company opened a production base in Vietnam to serve the global market. And in 2022, a major milestone occurred – Motinova was acquired by the tech giant Midea Group, giving it even more power and stability. Motinova thus became part of a technology powerhouse that also owns well-known brands like Toshiba and KUKA (a leader in robotics). 🤖
This means only one thing – Motinova has a strong foundation, the resources to innovate, and access to the latest technologies. From development to testing and manufacturing, they control everything from A to Z. And that’s exactly the approach we at LEVIT appreciate.
👀 How does it all work?
Inside each Motinova motor is an intelligent power control system that continuously gathers data from three sensors:
- Torque Sensor – measures how hard you are pedaling.
- Cadence Sensor – monitors the rotation frequency of your pedals.
- Speed Sensor – knows how fast you’re going.
Thanks to this data, the system reacts in just 10 milliseconds, which is extremely fast. For you, it means the motor responds instantly and smoothly, without delay. The bike works with you, not against you. 🤝🏻
🚴🏻♂️ What does that mean for you?
Imagine you start pedaling – and immediately feel a gentle assist from the bike. No “kick” from the motor, no delay. The ride is smooth, calm, and natural. As if it’s not a motor helping you – but your own legs in top shape.
🔇 The silence you can hear
Motinova is among the quietest drive units on the market. Thanks to precise engineering and an optimized gear mechanism, the motor emits virtually no sound – not even under higher loads. This means your ride is not disturbed by buzzing or humming and remains smooth, peaceful, and under full control. Its lightweight and compact design also allows for versatile use in cities, trekking, or sport riding.
🏆 Key benefits of Motinova motors:
- Low heat generation – efficient motor that saves energy.
- Compact size – small yet powerful.
- Efficiency over 85% – more kilometers per change.
- Lightning-fast response – reacts faster than saying “e-bike.”
🗣️ Why did we at LEVIT choose Motinova?
Because we tested it ourselves and know it works great. It’s reliable, powerful, and quiet – and that’s exactly what we want to offer you. Motinova is a partner we can rely on. And so can you.
One of the main reasons we chose Motinova is its strong technological background. The company has its own team dedicated to research and development – from motor design to electronics, software, and even the final construction. Everything is developed under one roof, without unnecessary intermediaries. Thanks to this, Motinova can innovate quickly, maintain full control over quality, and bring solutions that move the entire e-bike category forward.
All this stands on a solid foundation – the company is part of a global technology group with vast experience and resources. This is what enables Motinova to invest in top-level development. 💰
