NIU’s current product range is divided into two main categories, each featuring a variety of vehicle types. The first includes electric motorcycles, mopeds, and bicycles, such as the NQi, MQi, UQi, FQi series, among others.

The second category focuses on micro-mobility solutions, which consist of the KQi kick-scooter lineup and the BQi electric bike series.
