What Is Happening In Treadmills Right Now?
Several treadmill launches landed between August and October 2026, and they point the same way. Peloton launched three treadmills on October 1, including its first folding model, the Tread Flex. KingSmith, the company behind the WalkingPad, put a powered 18% incline on a deck that folds. SOLE refreshed its range with brushless motors and new consoles, including the F83 with a swivel 10.1-inch touchscreen.
Across all of them, treadmills are getting easier to live with: more fold, the controls are changing, and software comes in the box.

The Peloton Tread Flex. Peloton says folding it cuts its floor footprint by nearly half, and calls it its most affordable treadmill so far.
The Tread Vision replaces the Cross Training Tread, and the Tread+ Vision replaces the Cross Training Tread+. Peloton has said the earlier models will no longer be sold directly by Peloton after October 1, 2026.
A brushless motor is an electric motor that switches current electronically instead of through carbon brushes. SOLE says its brushless motors are quieter, smoother, and more durable.
A slat belt is a running surface made of linked slats instead of one continuous belt. Peloton uses one on the Tread+ Vision.
A powered incline is an incline that a motor raises and lowers, usually from the console, instead of one you set by hand.
A treadmill's footprint is the floor space it takes up, and folding designs shrink it when stored.
