Triumph has officially announced that the TE-1 electric motorcycle is about to complete. The Triumph TE-1 prototype was recently tested by Brandon Paasch, Daytona 200 champion racer. For the TE-1, the British two-wheeler manufacturer has taken design inspiration from the Triumph Speed Triple motorcycle.
After four testing phases, the brand has revealed the performance figures of the TE-1 prototype. Weighing around 220 kg, the TE-1 generates a peak power of 175 bhp and a max torque of 109 Nm. The e bike is capable of doing 0-60 mph in just 3.6 seconds and 0-100 mph in 6.2 seconds. Offering a claimed range of 161 km/100 mile, the motorcycle's battery can be charged from 0-80% in 20 minutes only. Charging technology and battery has been co-developed by Triumph and Williams Advanced Engineering (WAE).
