Tern HSD P5i Gen 3
The Tern HSD P5i Gen 3 is a compact electric cargo bike built for everyday transportation, passenger carrying, and heavy hauling with smooth Bosch assistance, a low-maintenance Gates Belt Drive, an internally geared Shimano Nexus hub, and a remarkably strong rear rack.
Full-size cargo capability without the full-size footprint.
The HSD P5i combines a stable low-center-of-gravity frame, Bosch Smart System power, a virtually maintenance-free belt drive, and a best-in-class rear rack in a compact bike that fits riders from 4’11” to 6’7″.

A compact cargo bike that rides like a regular bike.
The HSD P5i is designed to carry significant weight without feeling oversized or difficult to control. Its longer wheelbase and low center of gravity keep the bike composed while the suspension fork and wide tires improve comfort.
The Bosch motor adds smooth, natural assistance, while the internal hub and Gates belt make the drivetrain quiet and easy to maintain. It is equally suited to commuting, family transportation, grocery trips, and everyday cargo hauling.
