Energica Ego
The Energica Ego is an electrically propelled sport road motorcycle designed and marketed by Energica Motor Company. It is claimed by Energica to be the world's first street-legal electric Italian sport motorcycle. The prototype was finished in 2013 and the vehicle came into the market in 2015. The prototype made use of new technologies such as CNC and 3D-printing, including the dashboard and headlights which were 3D-printed.
The Ego is an all-electric motorcycle. It has a 107 kW motor with 200 Nm of torque (at low RPM), giving it a top speed of 240 km/h. The motor is powered by an 11.7 kW⋅h battery. The Ego weighs approximately 258–280 kg, contributed to by the heavy battery.
It has four-level adjustable engine braking, which is also regenerative. The motor is situated near the cast aluminium swing-arm and side-mounted mono shock. Projector headlamps are used for headlights. The dashboard is a 109.22 mm TFT display.
Before 2017, it had a 136 hp electric motor with 180 Nm torque. However, the naked sibling 'Eva' produces 108 hp which was 95 hp before 2017. They are also EURO IV compliant after 2017. The price was also reduced to approximately £20,000.
The bike has a tubular steel trellis frame partly visible despite the fairings.
Upgraded again in 2019, they are equipped with an electric throttle that can read adjustments down to tenths of mrad. Other electronic features such as "silent charging" and heated hand grips were also added.
The Ego reaches 100 km/h in 3 seconds, has a 43 mm Marzocchi front fork and Brembo brakes with ABS and anti-rollover functions. According to some reviewers, the suspension is relatively softly calibrated. It has a controller named a ”VCU” by Energica, similar to an ESC. It is claimed to be controlling all aspects – from battery to engine (including engine braking) by Energica.
The Ego has a range of approximately 160 km under normal use (190 km in ”eco” mode).
