Innovative design and High mobility EV bike

in bike •  6 years ago 

Mechanic departments of Zurich Institute of Technology with students from two industrial design departments attending the Zurich University of Art, and build the electric motorbike called  Ethec.

It is distinctive headlights extending from the tank and suspended. This is a beautiful design, designed by young designers, tied from tail to light one by one.

According to siamagazin, a huge 15 kWh lithium-ion battery can be fully charged in just one hour and 1260 cells can travel at a range of 400 km. The motor is not only air-cooled but also oil-cooled, as well as a Peltier cooling system.

It is a high-tech ride featuring a motor in both rear wheels and running on AWD (two-wheel drive), a front wheel incorporating a hub motor, and a regenerative brake to convert the energy at deceleration into electricity.

Accoridng to official website says: "Because we have limited capabilities for energy storage, we hope to more efficiently use energy and develop new possibilities in the world of modern mobility."

Batteries and regenerative brakes are controlled by their own OS, and all meters are consolidated on a 7-inch touchscreen. At the same time, the Bluetooth transmitter in the pocket becomes the key, and the motor is started with one button next to the screen.

The whole design process from draft to production, production, and marketing by students. While seeking necessary knowledge and skills by themselves, they receive advice from professors and industry experts and develop the ability to stand alone.

All the students have to actively build this bike, future seems to be bright as well.

It going to be a big threat for normal bikes consuming fuel, but it will be right to use electric motorbikes in place of old one.Really the model is looking very nice..
