For families or individuals who do their shopping by bike, carry heavy panniers and want an e-bike that can do it all in town. It will suit anyone who rides every day, in all weathers.
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.
Loaded with two full panniers, a city bike needs strength when pulling away: that's where the 75 Nm of the Performance Line makes the difference compared with a gentler motor. The Nexus hub lets you shift down at a standstill before setting off loaded, without jolting the drivetrain.
The MIK-compatible rack takes baskets and panniers that clip on and off in one movement so you can take them into the shop. The Pletscher Comp Flex 18 kickstand holds the bike while you load it, and the Shimano hydraulic brakes keep braking consistent even with weight at the rear. Above 25 km/h, the assistance cuts out.
| 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: for carrying loads, the N5 B combines the highest torque in the series with a robust drivetrain. The R10, with the same motor, saves 1.40 kg (26.30 kg) but means maintaining a derailleur.

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.
