For anyone who lives up the hill, near Saint-Nazaire cathedral or in the steep neighbourhoods, and wants to ride home effortlessly every day. It's for those who want maximum power and minimum maintenance.
Performance Line and CDX belt: the most muscular District+. The Bosch Performance Line motor delivers 75 Nm of torque, considerably more than the Active Line Plus on the District+ 3: it gives a stronger push when pulling away and holds your pace on steep climbs. To handle this torque, Trek fits a Gates CDX belt, Gates's heavy-duty range, on a five-speed Nexus C7000 hub. Five gears are enough here, because the motor bridges the gaps between them.
| Active Line Plus | Performance Line | What it means | |
| Torque | 60 Nm (Trek figure) | 75 Nm | Punchier acceleration |
| Feel | Gentle, natural assistance | Strong push | Steep climbs without straining |
| District+ models concerned | District+ 3 N7 and R9 | District+ 4 N5 B and R10 | Top of the 2027 range |
| Battery | 360 or 540 Wh | PowerTube 600 | More energy available |
In short: the N5 B combines the most powerful motor in the series, the big battery and the drivetrain that needs the least care. It's the District+ for intensive use, loaded or in hilly terrain.
With 75 Nm, the Performance Line pulls away strongly, even from a standstill on a hill: the bike sets off without hesitation at the lights at the top of a ramp. The Nexus C7000 5-speed hub offers a low gear for climbs and a high gear for the avenues; the motor bridges the gap between them.
The Gates CDX belt is designed to handle high torque: it transmits the motor's push without stretching or wearing quickly, and never needs any grease. The 34-tooth sprocket and the sealed hub make up a drivetrain that fears neither rain nor dust.
| Model | Motor | Battery | Drivetrain | Weight (L) |
| District+ 3 N7 B LS | Bosch Active Line Plus | 540 Wh | Nexus 7-speed hub, Gates belt | 27.20 kg |
| District+ 4 N5 B LS | Bosch Performance Line | 600 Wh | Nexus 5-speed hub, Gates belt | 27.70 kg |
| District+ 4 R10 LS | Bosch Performance Line | 600 Wh | CUES 10-speed derailleur | 26.30 kg |
| District+ 3 N7 540 LS | Bosch Active Line Plus | 540 Wh | Nexus 7-speed hub, chain | 27.70 kg |
Our take: the N5 B weighs 500 g more than the N7 B (27.70 kg versus 27.20 kg) but brings the 75 Nm motor and the PowerTube 600. If you prefer a derailleur, the R10 offers the same motor for 26.30 kg.

LVR sizing advice Four sizes cover riders from 147 to 203 cm. For an upright, relaxed ride in the town centre, go for the smaller size if you're unsure; for long rides, the larger size gives your legs more room. The L and XL get a 110 mm stem, compared with 70 mm on the S and M.
