Triumph announced some exciting news about its Project TE-1 electric prototype at the beginning of February, 2022. That’s when the House of Hinckley first showed off its working prototype demonstrator. The bike was built after months of careful collaboration with Williams Advanced Engineering, Integral Powertrain Limited, and Warwick Manufacturing Group (WMG) at the University of Warwick. Together, the team announced that it would be entering Phase Four—the final planned stage before the reveal, where the prototype would undergo thorough testing.
As of May 31, 2022, Phase Four of testing is now officially complete. What did Triumph learn? Presumably plenty, although it’s keeping quiet about all the details for the moment. The company apparently wants to build anticipation to a boiling point, as the official announcement merely states that the live testing phase is now complete, and that full information will be revealed to the world on July 12, 2022. Interested parties can mark their calendars—and there’s also an email signup on Triumph’s webpage if you want to be kept in the loop on project news.
