    This will be done in association with Dell-Orto, who will help in the development of smaller electric motors producing low (8-11kW) to mid-weight (up to 30kW) power units. For reference, Energica’s lineup boasts of motorcycles like the Ego, which makes 107kW of power and can reach a top speed of 240kmph. As one expects, most of these offerings come with a premium price tag.

    Reports suggest that the EV industry has grown by 79 per cent in Europe alone in the first quarter of 2019. Even the Indian two-wheeler market has witnessed a similar trend, with startups like Ather and Revolt gaining more and more popularity. Hence, the decision to turn towards more mass-market products doesn’t come as a surprise.

    So what can we expect? For now, it is too soon to tell. But it is safe to rule out something like a small-capacity electric scooter considering Energica’s track record. Instead, we might get something like a naked streetfighter similar to the EVA. If the new motorcycle looks anything like it, we have nothing to complain about!
