The Brammo Empulse goes on sale this summer

We read in the forums Brammo that enrollees in the reserve list to be the first to receive a unit of Empulse have received an email from the company stating that despite a small delay, first units will be delivered in late July.


This is excellent news that arrives after almost a year since the announcement of the departure of the Empulse, the first electric superbike for sale, which seeks to disrupt the market for electricity-driven bikes with a performance of heart and a price, pretty tight.


The Empulse have a motor 30 kW nominal power, with a pair of 80 Nm available from zero revs, able to push it up to a maximum speed of 160 km / h, Which zooms that many have electric bikes slow and unexciting. Have three pack different lithium battery, so that each client purchase suits your needs and budget.

These depart from the basic, with a capacity of 6 kWhSufficient to cover a distance of 100 km with each charge, to the largest, with nothing less than 10 kWhThe higher capacity pack so far in the world of electric bikes and to provide enough energy to travel about 160 KM with a load, a considerable figure.

According to its creators, the acceleration will be comparable to 650 CCThis is partly due to its powerful engine, But especially to linear supply power of 80 Nm, We remember being felt in full from the first lap of our right wrist.

As these prices will depart from the $ 9,995 (7,700 euros) for the version with 6 kWh, up $ 13,995 (10,700 euros) for the gifted with the biggest pack, very competitive prices. But also keep in mind that these amounts each buyer can subtract aid established in each state, which in some cases, such as ColoradoAmount to nothing less than $ 5,700 by bike, almost 4,000 euros.

At the moment nothing is known of his arrival in our market, but they certainly do, prices will not be the same as in North America, for the usual taxes and other costs that are multiplying these rates to jump the pond, although these benefits , certainly have their fans.
