The Energica Ego is professionally made, because behind the new manufacturer is the CRP Group, an Italian Formula 1 supplier that uses its innovative laser-sintering material Windform for 3-D printing.

At the presentation in Rome Loris Capirossi led the first Energica prototype for the FIM Moto-e World Cup. The former world champion was allowed to try out the prototype on the racetrack and commented positively on the first test laps with the new electric bike: “The feeling is different. I tested this bike for the first time in 2016 and immediately knew it was great to ride. We are still at the beginning, but the development will now go steeply uphill”. Nothing has been said about the exact technical data.

Energica delivers the motorcycles (December 2017)
A championship with electric motorcycles had been planned for some time. In December 2017, the new FIM Moto-e World Cup racing series was officially confirmed. The makers of the new series have decided to sign the Italian manufacturer Energica as the only motorcycle supplier. Other manufacturers were also in discussion as suppliers, but did not completely convince the series makers.
Energica has made a name for itself as a manufacturer of electric motorcycles in recent years. The manufacturer’s top model, the Energica Ego, delivers 145 hp and should therefore achieve a maximum speed of 240 km / h. It will be launched in a revised version in the FIM Moto-e from 2019.
Statements from those responsible
Vito Ippolito (FIM President):
“FIM is very happy to support the development of new technologies. Energica has proven to be a reliable and leading company in this field. With the great support from Dorna, we are sure that we are on the right track.”
Carmelo Ezpeleta (CEO Dorna Sports):
“The FIM Moto-e World Cup is a new and exciting project for Dorna and we are very proud to announce that Energica has been selected as the manufacturer for it. There couldn’t be a better partner for this than Energica. We look forward to working with you and look to the future together.”
Livia Cevolini (CEO Energica Motor Company S.p.A.):
“We are proud to have been chosen by Dorna and have already taken on this project. The passion for engines brought us here. We’ve taken electric motorcycles to a whole new level. Our history comes from racing and our passion has always helped to get to this level. The Moto-e is a fantastic project that can now be realized thanks to Dorna and us.”
