Just four weeks after showcasing E-SPEED electric scooter at the Tokyo Motorcycle Show, KTM has announced that their concept study will be ready to hit production lines by 2015. The E-SPEED was showcased for the first time in Europe where it was displayed to the domestic market at the Bike-Austria exhibition in Tulin, Austria. This is the second electric vehicle from the KTM stable after the offroad bike FREERIDE E, which will be made available in Europe next year.
Although offroad sport is KTM’s main focus area for which they have developed the FREERIDE E, they also want to focus on urban mobility and it was the overwhelming response that they got in Tokyo that brought the idea of transferring the results from the development of the E-Cross bike into the road segment.
Harald Plöckinger KTM Executive Board Member for Production and Business Development said, “The E-SPEED is our interpretation of emission-free propulsion for city use, but without compromising on the design and sportiness of our KTM genes!”
The E-SPEED will be powered by an electric motor that generates 15PS and 36Nm of torque all of which is delivered to the rear wheel via a belt drive. The scooter will max out at a top speed of 84km/h and has a range of 64km in a full charge.
With the FREERIDE E and the E-SPEED set for the streets in 2014 and 2015 respectively, KTM believes that a switch to the electrical way of mobility will definitely be a huge success in the urban areas.
