2026 Upgrades
Heated Seat
All-season comfort from the moment you sit down. No more cold leather on a winter morning — the E1 5KW starts warm, so you can too.
Heated Hand Grips
Year-round riding shouldn't require a debate. Heated grips mean numb fingers are a problem for petrol riders, not you.
In-Tank Type 2 Fast Charger
Flush-mounted and discreet, the in-tank Type 2 charger connects to the AC fast charge network at home, at work, or wherever the ride takes you. Standard 240V home charging also works with no special installation required.
Push Button Start with Remote Activation
Walk up. Press. Ride. Remote start means your bike is ready before you've done your helmet up. No keys. No drama.
Performance
The 5KW hub motor delivers 220 Nm of torque the moment you twist the throttle — no clutch, no gear changes, no warm-up. Smooth, responsive acceleration through city traffic and out the other side. Regenerative braking puts energy back into the battery every time you slow, extending real-world range and reducing brake wear.
Range & Charging
Up to 120 km per charge from the 72V / 80Ah lithium battery. The average Australian commutes 43 km per day — this bike covers that on a fraction of the charge. Running cost: approximately $2.33 per 100 km. Plug into any standard 240V power point — no special installation required.
LAMS Approved
Confirmed LAMS compliant across all Australian states. Learner, provisional, or full licence — you're covered.
