What Is New With Peloton's 2026 Treadmill Updates

Ready to meet the new lineup of Peloton treadmills? Built to support everyone from casual movers to serious athletes, with no compromise on the quality or engaging experience you’ve come to expect. The Peloton Tread Flex is foldable, movable, and ultra-quiet, so it’s made to fit your space and your schedule. The Peloton Tread Vision tracks your running form and advances your progress for a smarter workout. The Peloton Tread+ Vision is the ultimate training partner, refining your form with camera-powered Run Analysis, and an energy returning slat belt for a more comfortable run. Whatever you're training for, one of them is made for it.

But this launch isn’t just about new hardware. We’re also adding new features designed to create a highly personalized Tread experience across our entire lineup—bringing more variety and intelligent training tools to the equipment you already own.

What Are the New Peloton Software Features?

Whether you’re stepping onto a brand-new machine or booting up the Tread you’ve loved for years, this year’s updates deliver software enhancements designed to take the guesswork out of your training. Four of these software tools—Heart Rate Zone Workouts, IQ Pace Targets, Shortcuts, and ReRuns—are rolling out to all Treads. A fifth feature, Run Analysis, is coming to the Tread Vision and the Tread+ Vision. And finally a sixth feature, Sled Mode, is coming to every Peloton generation of Tread+*.

These updates will be available to all All-Access Members in supported markets and will start rolling out gradually on October 1, 2026. On launch day, if you don't see the new features on your display right away, check out our support guide on how to update your device.

Here is a look at the new features coming to you:

IQ Pace Targets

All those questions about whether you’re pushing hard enough (or holding back too much) are a thing of the past. IQ Pace Targets replace static pace levels with custom target pace ranges that adapt over time. Peloton IQ will analyze your recent running performance to deliver pace ranges tailored specifically to your fitness level. When there’s a new pace recommendation, you’ll see it pop up before a running class starts and you can choose to accept the suggestion or stay with the pace level you previously selected. As your performance improves, your pace targets evolve right alongside you, ensuring you're always training in your personal happy pace. 

Heart Rate Zone Workouts

So much has been documented about the benefits of working out in Zone 2 to improve your endurance, overall stamina, and ability to recover. This year we’re introducing non-instructed, Zone 2 workout plans to the Just Guidance or Entertainment experience. When you connect your heart rate monitor, smartwatch, or wearable, the Tread guides you through a workout with real-time target feedback to keep you in the target zone.

These plans will give you instant, in-the-moment feedback to adjust your effort so you can keep your heart rate locked into the ideal zone and get the healthy heart benefits from your workout. Heart rate zone workouts will be available for all Bike, Tread, and Row hardware. 

Shortcuts

Training should be about focusing on your stride, not struggling with buttons. With shortcuts, your on-screen controls will automatically surface speed and incline options right when your instructor cues them and they’ll now reflect your pace target ranges. One quick tap of the screen instantly adjusts your Tread to the recommended setting, making your speed and incline transitions effortless.

ReRuns

Love your local running route? Now you can bring it indoors anytime. ReRuns is a new running experience that lets you upload and replay your favorite outdoor miles by syncing the distance, and elevation data from the Peloton app or your smartwatch. Your Tread automatically adjusts its incline to follow the real-world elevation changes of your neighborhood loop or race course, letting you relive your best outdoor runs on your own schedule. And if you don’t have any outdoor routes ready to sync, you can access a library of Peloton provided routes from the Peloton New York and London run clubs as well as segments of the TCS NY Marathon provided through our partnership with NYRR. 

Sled Mode

We’re also launching a specialized training mode that transforms your Tread+ into a high-intensity strength station. First, you’ll need to turn on Free Mode—which disengages the motor and  allows you to power the treadmill manually—then you can access Sled Mode to add up to 300 lbs of resistance to the belt. Sled Mode lets you simulate pushing a weighted sled across a gym floor, so you can add competition-style training and functional power movements to your running workouts without needing extra gym equipment and will be available on all Tread+ models. 

Run Analysis

When you’re logging high-mileage weeks, even minor technical flaws can impact your performance or lead to injury. That’s why we’re introducing Run Analysis, powered by Peloton IQ and our built-in movement-tracking camera. As you run, the camera automatically measures your cadence, vertical oscillation, and stride length in real time. At the end of your workout, you’ll get a personal check-up with your own Running Efficiency Score, measured on a scale of 1–100. This score helps you understand how effectively your form converts effort into forward motion, with actionable tips to help you run smarter and improve efficiency so you can go farther faster. Run Analysis is available on the Cross Training Tread+ as well as Tread Vision and Tread+ Vision. 

What Is the New Peloton Hardware Lineup?

Now let’s get into the new hardware.  

Introducing the Foldable Peloton Tread Flex

If space has been keeping you from owning a Peloton Tread, meet the Tread Flex. This folding treadmill is designed specifically for saving space and being easy to move with wheels and casters. When folded up, it frees up precious floor space without sacrificing performance, reducing the length by nearly 50%. It features an HD 21.5" Swivel Screen that rotates easily, allowing you to seamlessly transition from a cardio workout on the deck to an instructor-led strength or yoga session on your mat. Built to perform, it hits speeds of up to 12.5 mph and inclines up to 12.5%, matching the capability of Tread Vision. It also features our classic knobs with a center button for intuitive, precise control during your walks and runs.

Peloton Tread Vision 

Tread Vision includes our movement-tracking camera, enabling intelligent strength training features like form feedback and rep tracking, as well as the new Run Analysis feature.

At first glance, Tread Vision might look like the treadmill you know, but we’ve made improvements at every touchpoint—the screen, the tray, the control knobs, and the deck—to create a more comfortable running experience. We’ve added our 23.8" Swivel Screen for an immersive, studio-quality experience, complete with higher-quality audio tuned by Sonos and an integrated fan to keep you cool. We’ve even redesigned the tray to maximize storage for your phone, tablet, and water bottle.

There’s real magic happening beneath your feet, too. Tread Vision features new deck cushioning with improved dampeners for lighter impact. To make speed intervals and steep hill shifts more seamless, we’ve introduced jump buttons, letting you instantly tap to the next or previous speed or incline number without ever breaking your stride.

Peloton Tread+ Vision

For those who live for the long runs and absolute performance limits, Tread+ Vision is the ultimate running machine. It takes our beloved, low-impact rubberized Slat Belt—which rolls on a ball-bearing system to absorb impact and return energy with every step—and pairs it with our most advanced technology. You get the immersive 23.8" Swivel Screen, high-quality audio tuned by Sonos, an integrated cooling fan, and the movement-tracking camera that powers Run Analysis. We’ve also added sleek, physical jump buttons so you can shift speed and incline to the next or previous whole number instantly. It supports speeds up to 12.5 mph and our highest incline, 0-15% grade. With Sled Mode compatibility, this machine doesn’t just track your running form, it changes how you train your muscles.

Tread Vision vs. Cross Training Tread

Tread Vision is a major leap forward. It features the movement tracking camera, upgraded deck cushioning, tactile jump buttons for rapid adjustments, an integrated cooling fan, and front-facing Sonos audio.

Tread+ Vision vs. Cross Training Tread+

Tread+ Vision keeps the movement tracking camera and best in class Slat Belt, while upgrading the experience with the new physical jump buttons.

You can test-run the new Peloton Tread lineup at your local Peloton store or retail location, or book a virtual appointment with an expert to find the right fit for your goals. Learn more.
