Hunter's comment

This eye catching, high-tech electric sportsbike is a product of an Italian manufacturer of electric motorcycles Energica Motor Company.

Energica EGO was in fact named the Electric Motorcycle of the Year in 2017.

That's quite a product endorsement.

The advantage of an electric engine

Besides zero emissions Energica EGO's electric engine gives it an advantage over classical internal combustion engines in smoothness of its acceleration. Because it has no gears and clutch there is no drop in speed between shifting gears. It beats a 600 Supersport and BMW S 1000 RR HP4 in a drag race.

Performance

The performance is very satisfying :)

Accelaration (0-60 mph): 3 sec
Top speed: 150 mph (240km/h)
Horse power: 145 HP
Torque: 200 Nm ranging from 0-4700 rpm

Vehicle Control Unit (VCU)

The brain of the Energica EGO is the Vehicle Control Unit (VCU) which controls the power management algorithm of the motorcycle from its batteries to inverter, charger and ABS.

Supports Bluetooth

Bleutooth connectivity means that you can connect your motorbike to your smartphone, tablet or home computer and check how much power is left in the batteries and where the nearest charging station is.

Battery charging

You can reharge the batteries of your Energica EGO through the outdoor charging stations using the FastNed fast charging Network or at home.

Test ride:

Drag Race: Energica EGO vs BMW S 1000 RR HP4, Ferrari 458 Italia, etc.

This is awesome. Electric anything is the way of the future.

Pros:

Great speed off the line.
renewable energy use
Bluetooth function for smart devices

Cons:

Charging stations play a role on how far/where you can go.
still very rare, not a lot of them on the market.

Hi @direwolf nice hunt! the performance of this bike is not just satisfying it is incredible.
Pros:-

first and most importantly it is an echo friendly super bike.
0 to 60 mph just in 3 second

AWESOME it's like the speed of flash.

the smart Vehicle Control Unit VCU simultaneously check all the systems of the bike at once like the Ego’s battery, inverter, charger and ABS unit.
they also provide a parking assist system to facilitate the parking of bike on slopes.
the ABS system from Bosch is equipped with rear-wheel lift- up mitigation system that prevents overturn during emergency braking! Well I think this is a must have system in a Superman's super bike.
it comes with 4 Riding Modes: Urban, Eco, Rain, Sport; enjoy any one of choice.
Cons:-
nothing for that one.
