From the MotoE grid to the open road… and beyond, Energica has announced its Experia will be highlighting their booth at the INTERMOT trade fair. "We have focused on the real-world needs of motorcycle riders worldwide, creating a state-of-the art engineering platform,” explains Chief Technical Officer Giampiero Testoni. “We melded high-tech electric mobility with the roaming spirit of the motorcycle traveler. The intention was to create the first electric motorcycle created specifically for long-distance bike lovers.”
He notes Experia is the first model released as part of a new second generation “Energica Green Tourer” technological platform. Innovations include a reengineered EMCE electric motor, revised battery chemistry, new frame and chassis design — all intended to reduce weight while improving rideability. The result is an electric green tourer bike integrally designed and built for that purpose from the ground up.
Battery capacity has increased, yet has a lower weight, plus a centralized, lower center of gravity. Experia enjoys the largest battery capacity of any electric motorcycle at 22.5 kWh maximum (19.6 kWh nominal) that can be charged from 0-80% in just 40 minutes at a Level 3 / DC Fast Charger at a top rate of 24 kW.
The newly designed PMASynRM motor EMCE (Synchronous Reluctance assisted by permanent magnets) is also lighter, with less mass, and is positioned lower than in our other models. The results are 75 kW (101 HP) peak power, torque is 115 Nm (85 lb. ft.) and then the top speed for the Energica Experia is 180 km/h (112 mph) – perfect for everyday freeway riding, says Testoni.
