Ford may not have found a way to make the folding bike look any less ridiculous looking, but at least the car company found a way to make it smarter.

Meet the MoDe. Ford's prototype folding bike can charge a smartphone and connects to health trackers via BlueTooth. That allows for cool features such as the "No Sweat" mode, which can kick on automatically when it senses your heart rate getting high to provide an assist via the electric motor. MoDe is designed to fold into a car, or onto a train, or wherever you need to take it, though it may be a little heavier than this video makes it look.

The bike isn't slated for production quite yet. This is a prototype from the Mobile World Congress, where tech companies show off their shiniest gizmos and gadgets for the near future. So you'll have to wait a bit to get your hands on this Ford and become the envy of everyone who wants a not-quite-moped.
