Tacita T-Race Diabolika E-Bike First Look

Tacita calls the T-Race Diabolika an “evolution of Cross, Enduro and Rally versions” equipped with 19-inch wheels and carbon-kevlar bodywork.

The engine is an electric asynchronous three-phase induction engine, powered by LI-PO Lythium polymer batteries, equipped with a 5-speed gearbox and tested in race conditions during the Merzouga Rally.

The battery pack will come in two different energy densities – 10.6 kWh and 5.3 kWh. Two mapping options are available, Eco and Sport. For the 10.6kWh model, city range is estimated at 200 km and highway range to be 150 km. For the smaller 5.3 kWh, the estimated ranges will be about half.

For the 5.3 kWh Diabolika, a 3 kW charger powers it to full charge in one hour, 50 minutes while a 1 kW charger will take five and a half hours to fully charge the power pack.
