Kiwi manufacturer FTN Motion is heading out on a test ride tour for its Streetdog XR, putting riders in the saddle across multiple cities. Because at some point, you've got to stop reading about a bike and go ride the thing.

Benzina Zero has landed in the UK through distributor MicroVolt, giving its utility bikes a clearer route into the British market.

FTN Motion is back with a new e-moto, and the Streetdog XR sticks closely to the formula that’s already winning the Kiwi brand a loyal following. It's still a lightweight, urban-first e-moto with clean lines and modest power, but the new XR now adds a bit more speed and a bit more edge over the older models.

In metropolitan hubs teeming with machines, the Streetdog brings a touch of soul to the streets. Not built to scorch highways or traverse mountains, it’s crafted for people who care how they arrive on urban short hauls, where looks, practicality, and design pull more weight than top speed or maximum torque. This is where the team at FTN Motion is staking a claim.
