- Unique Properties
- EGERA is an agile electric motorcycle, designed for stylish urban commuting. It's designed for professionals who want an easy way to get to the office, without limitations, saving time and money, simply charging in the home garage. And they want to be noticed when riding in traffic. Egera is one of the most compact E-motorbikes on the market and the liquid cooling system makes it unique.
- Dimensions & Packaging
- 2200 x 900 x 1250 mm , 152kg total weight
- Tags
- mobility, automotive, motorcycle, electric, vehicle
- Production Technology
- Various technologies were used, including 3D printing, welding, laser cutting, CNC milling, and manual sheet metal shaping. The battery uses state-of-the-art lithium cells. The aluminum swingarm helps keep the overall weight low and ensures excellent rigidity.
- Design Challenge
- The main challenge was the lack of reference points in Italy and Europe. Even Italian suppliers are not yet fully prepared for the electric car industry. Intensive work was done to ensure ergonomics and perfect balance, because on a motorcycle, these are crucial to the riding experience.
- Research
- Intensive research and development on the design, battery, electronics, and cooling system. Several traditional vehicles were studied, overlapping the design and hand sketches to define the preliminary layout and ensure proper ergonomics. Subsequently, thousands of hours were invested in 3D CAD and FEM simulation. Three physical prototypes were created.
- Inspiration
- The motorcycle's design draws inspiration from the 1970s school of motorcycles, such as Husqvarna and Honda. I launched the EGERA project, from design to construction of a complete, functioning prototype, during the Covid era. During that time, I reflected on how I could contribute with a concrete product to improving our quality of life, improving air quality in cities, streamlining traffic, and making electric mobility more attractive.
- Project Duration
- Started in 2020 in my 12sqm garage in Carlazzo, Como, during Covid. The motorcycles prototype has been tested on the airport track of St.Moritz in 2023, reaching 176kmh. Later in May 2024 the bike has been exhibited at Greentech festival in Berlin. In Aug 24 the motorbike has been exhibited in Villa d'Este, during an E1series event in presence of Will Smith and Rafa Nadal.
- Operation Flow
- Turn the key on and ride. Similar to a scooter, it is simple, no clutch, no gear box, no smell of gas on your clothes. Charging in the home garage with a simple 220V socket. No stress, just fun!
