About XP Zero 전기 오토바이

XP Zero는 기존의 관습을 버리고 기대에 부응하는 새로운 유형의 전기 오토바이입니다. 타협 없이 개발되고 정밀하게 제작된 XP는 최첨단 디자인과 최첨단 기술을 결합하여 모터사이클링의 새로운 시대를 대표합니다. XP Zero는 기존 오토바이가 아니기 때문에 기존 오토바이처럼 보이지 않습니다. XP는 내연 슈퍼바이크보다 두 배의 토크를 생성하고 슈퍼카보다 더 빠르게 가속합니다. 사용자 정의 가능한 성능 프로필은 XP를 고속도로의 크루저에서 구불구불한 카페 레이서로 변화시킵니다.

Design Challenge: The motorcycle industry is struggling with an ageing audience and plateauing sales. Electric motorcycles can reinvent the category and rescue the industry. Traditional motorcycle companies associate this new technology with familiar tropes. But this prevents existing motorcyclists from exploring electric, and drives away new riders who are repelled by traditional motorcycle values. To appeal to new audiences, electric motorcycles must set themselves apart from traditional combustion designs.
Research: The 2020s will be regarded as the moment when the electric motorcycle industry came of age. In many ways, the situation with electric motorcycles is similar to the dawn of combustion motorcycles in the 1880s when there was an incredible explosion of novel ideas and forms. With this new electric technology, many of the traditional design solutions created in response to combustion technology are no longer relevant. This is an unique opportunity to completely rethink the inherited status quo.
Inspiration: The XP Zero was designed by imagining an alternate reality in which motorcycles have always been electric. The XP asks what an electric motorcycle would look like today with 135 years of development. Traditional motorcycle design is driven by the physical constraints of the combustion engine. With the introduction of electric, those limitations disappear. The XP rethinks the motorcycle by taking a first-principles approach and creating an entirely new design language for electric motorcycles.
Project Duration: The XP project was initiated in October 2018 and completed, 9 months later, in June 2019. The XP Zero debuted at the prestigious Goodwood Festival of Speed in July 2019. It has been exhibited at EICMA in Milan, and at the One Moto Show in Portland USA. In 2020 it will be showcased at the Moto MMXX exhibition.
Operation Flow: The XP’s design language is centred around the idea of control surfaces - both human and machine. The XP’s powertrain - a machined aerospace aluminum core housing the batteries, motor, charger, and other control components - also incorporates the seat. The rider sits astride the powertrain, while aerodynamic panels direct airflow over the motor. When approached, the motorcycle recognizes its rider, illuminates its lights and panels, and becomes 'alive'.
