Bangalore-based Emflux Motors has revealed another
teaser image of its upcoming electric motor-powered naked roadster range.
Unlike the previous teaser, the new picture reveals the front fascia of the
motorcycles along with their respective performance numbers.
The naked roadster range will comprise two models –
TWO and TWO+. The TWO will be the base variant, while the TWO+ will pack more
power. The base variant will boast a top speed of 160 km/h and a range of 160
km. The TWO+, on the other hand, can achieve a maximum pace of 180 km/h and
cover 200 km per charge. The teaser also lists acceleration timing of 4.5
seconds and 3.6 seconds, although it does not mention whether it is for the
0-60 km/h sprint or the 0-100 km/h sprint. We believe the timing listed above
is for the 0-100 km/h acceleration. In comparison, the Emflux ONE can
accelerate to 100 km/h from standstill in just 3 seconds and attain a top speed
of 200 km/h.
Unlike the Emflux ONE, which is a fully-faired
motorcycle, the TWO and the TWO+ will feature a naked roadster styling, and
thus miss windblast protecting parts such as a windscreen and a fairing. The
ergonomics will aim to deliver city-focussed riding position. Thus, steering
duties will be performed by a single-piece handlebar instead of clip-on units
on the ONE. The lack of fairing is likely to give the TWO and TWO+ a relatively
lower kerb weight than the ONE.
The hardware specifications, like those of the
fully-faired ONE, will include inverted front forks, a monoshock at the back,
twin discs at the front, a single disc at the back and a single-sided swingarm.
The braking setup will most likely include Brembo-sourced callipers. Other
premium features of the motorcycles will include full LED lighting and a
digital instrument console. Given the performance numbers, the electric bikes
will receive the safety net of ABS. Regular followers would know that ABS is
mandatory for electric two-wheelers above 11 kW of power.
The launch and the pricing details have been kept under
wraps. We expect to see the new products from Emflux Motors at Auto Expo 2020.
