With several electric VTCs already in the catalog, Giant has not finished targeting cyclists as closely as possible to their needs. Between the more adventurous Explorer E+ and the urban-leaning Dailytour, the new Giant Anytour X E+ wants to combine the best of all worlds.

It is precisely on the battery side that we must distinguish the two available models, the Giant Anytour X E+1 and E+3. The first will use the EnergyPack 800 Wh (compared to 625 Wh for the E+3), a capacity which allows more than 200 kilometers per charge in eco mode! With the most powerful mode, we can imagine a range of around 100 km, an excellent range of action.
The Anytour The screen integrated into the stem is included, with even an auto mode, as well as a Giant application.
