Triumph Motorcycles has released images showing how its first electric motorbike could look.
A prototype has been developed as part of its two year Project TE-1 initiative, working with partners including Williams Advanced Engineering, the battery and technology arm of the Williams Formula One racing team.
The partnership – which also includes Integral Powertrain’s e-Drive division and researchers from WMG at the University of Warwick – has come up with an electric motor which Triumph says has a strong power-to-weight ratio, potentially giving it better range than its competitors.
