Audi is now rolling out a new model, but it’s not a car, it’s an electrified mountain bike to ride in the mountains. It’s called The Audi electric mountain bike powered by Fantic, and as the name suggests, it’s Italian Fantic that handles the electric part of this.

The design is said to be inspired by the Audi RS Q e-tron Dakar racer, and to become an owner, you’ll have to cough up $10,000. The motor is a Brose S-MAG 36 Volt 250 Watt that can provide up to 90 newton-meters of torque. It gets its power from a 720 Wh battery pack.

The frame is made of aluminum with some carbon fiber inserts, and the front fork comes from Öhlins. The front brake disc measures 220 millimeters, and the rear one measures 203 millimeters.
