The day following the 2019 MotoGP season finale, Trizzle got the chance to test ride the Energica Ego Corsa MotoE racebike at the Valencia circuit. Now, four months later, and with the world basically at a halt to deal with the Coronavirus, we've finally had a chance to piece the video of the experience together.

Battery size will decrease while capacity increases. Seems like almost daily that new battery patents are filed and new battery achievements are announced. Even oil companies are renaming to energy companies and investing in battery tech startups and R&D.

12:45 - Re. they could use a smaller battery: One thing about higher capacity batteries is that they tend to also have higher ampacity. In other words, they could reduce the capacity (and therefore weight) but they might also reduce the amount of current the pack could put out, which means less torque and power. I'm sure they're studying the heck out of the numbers right now.

when battery state of charge goes down so does peak power. if they went until battery is empty they wouldn't be at full power the entire race and it would look weird for the fans to watch the bikes get progressively slower and finish at a snail pace.

ICE engines are still evolving. Compression ignition, opposed piston engines, Atkinson cycles, multi-displacement, multi-compression, cam-less, fuel stratified injection, dual injection, etc. Even liquid fuels have evolved. While ICE engines still have about 50% head worth left of efficiency to pursue, electric motors have already nearly peaked out and still can't deal with all the downsides of battery limitations (weight, space, life-cycle, hideously filthy manufacturing, shortage of lithium, time to recharge, infrastructure limitations, COST, not to mention requires most of the same energy sources that ICE engines access to use). Unless battery tech TRIPLES in capacity, charge speed, and reduces weight by 50%, reduces cost by 50%, it's not practical to compare to liquid fuels. Now gas is dropping below $2/gal where I live at the writing of this post, and I can drive over 420 miles, fill in 5 minutes, and drive another 420 miles in an $18,000 very practical car that will last 200,000 miles with basic maintenance, can easily be repaired in most any place, can easily get parts from most anywhere.

Perhaps that rear pumping sensation was because you weren't giving it enough throttle to load up the spring enough to get the rear to squat and stay loaded up at corner exit, if you think about it that way, it kind of makes sense. The tune is probably done in relation to that as well so the riders can use as much throttle as possible at corner exit without breaking traction.

Funny you noticed the rear shock pogo-ing. I race an Alta Redshift MXR in Motocross/Arenacross and had a heck of a time finding a good rebound, compression and revalve setting on the shock to avoid the exact same issue and get comfortable at race speed. I think all the rotating mass of an ICE motor calms the rear and leaves suspension tuners scratching their heads when comparing the Dyno charts with a similar piston bike without actually riding the electric bike.

If they reduced the pack size and maintained voltage, then the demand from the motor might overtax the cells, create too much heat and destroy them much faster. I'm not sure what voltage they run, but they also might not be able to reduce the pack size without reducing the voltage, in which case you'll have less power.

The motor is NOT water cooled. The inverter is. Your own video shows the water pump and water hoses from the radiator to the inverter. The battery is air cooled. The motor is not requiring cooling, but it is in oil which helps with any possible heating/friction.

Hi Troy thanks for covering electric motorcycles and bringing a racing view point to the table. I've been seeing the newest company to get into the early stages of the game, Damon. I would love to see a test ride review (with track time) of their Hypersport model. The bike looks fantastic but I'm wary of some of their claimed specs. I'd trust you to give it a fair look. Thanks.
@gutserker
@gutserker 4 года назад
the bike has so much energy in the battery after a race probably because they needed more battery cells to increase the voltage to meet the power demand of the motor. 400 amps is quite a bit, and at over 200HP, you're becoming limited by voltage. The only way to get more voltage is more cells. The motor doesn't look liquid cooled either to me. It looks more like the controller is cooled. Motors don't generally produce a lot of heat. Controllers and batteries do.

I'm an e-bike rider - off-road - and minimal weight is pretty critical. I don't race but I need to handle the bikes when I tip over on technical terrain. If money was no object, I'd love the idea of trading off a lower capacity battery for less weight. I only ride for about 1 hour and also tend to come home with a lot of spare capacity. For example, I have 3 short rides on my new Ultra Bee and I've still got 37% battery capacity! I can probably get one more ride out of it before needing to recharge. My bikes are a Surron Storm Bee (130kg) and a Surron Ultra Bee (85kg). I think each could shave 10kg - 20kg with a lower capacity battery. I could keep my full capacity batteries as backups for when I need them.

people keep bashing this series not realizing they are pretty much the equivalent of stock 600cc bikes, and if they would be allowed to do qualifying laps with just the needed battery capacity they would show their true potential. Besides, a motogp engineered level electric bike could give the conventional ones a run for their money on a ten lap race even today.

Late comment but, the soft start, you kind of want that, otherwise that beast will take off and leave you floating in mid air like Wiley Coyote on one of his Acme Rockets. It helps prevent too harsh of wheelies or gizzard stretching takeoffs. Also, the 'feeling' you want sort of a regulated initial excelleration and not like you got hit with a wrecking ball or shot out of a gun with this lurching startup.

I do suggest visiting the native annunciation of Öhlins to avoid viewers distractions when you say the company name how you do, but please know I'm not trying to make fun or be an asshole, I simply think it would take less away from the great content you created with a slight tweak once you visit the Swedish tones and see how their company name is pronounced.

the reason they use such a big battery is cost. when you totally drain a battery and when you fully charge it you "drain" the life span of it. Usually a battery like that will last for 1200 charge cycles 0-100%. So they will last more than the motor itself probably in race conditions.

Completely draining a battery that large is a big no no. Also, it would be extremely dangerous to risk one of those things dying at full speed, much more so than a gas powered bike as the deceleration would be drastic and basically instant.
@MrDarrylR
@MrDarrylR 3 года назад
While they're on the Energica bikes, they should advance lap numbers. If the minimum battery fraction left after a race is x, increase the next season's lap numbers by x/(1-x). If its 35%, next years races are 0.35/0.65= 53% longer. Ideally, in the future there will be multiple manufacturer's involved. Batteries may never have the energy density of petrol, but halve the MotoGP lap numbers, and give the teams license to evolve. New battery chemistries, new motor designs, lighter setups. This is how you advance the engineering for street bikes. Maybe the best riders will become those that can learn their bike's quirks intimately, and squeeze a few more kWh out of their batteries. That's a good thing.

The reason being 40% battery can still PRODUCE the top speed, while trying to have a race at 2% won't. the bikes will be crawling along at 50mph if you did that, and the race would no longer be a race anyway since the rider skill is stripped from the equation and everyones just inching forward for 20 minutes and juice runs out at different times all along the track... it would be a huge and boring mess. That's not a race, that's a Top Gear experiment.

@NiSE_Rafter
@NiSE_Rafter 4 года назад
Probably has to do with battery longevity. They're stressing it less by not pushing it all the way / leaving headroom. Current batteries need a lot of management, pretty much all electric road cars have a hidden overhead capacity too, just not as much since they aren't being stressed as much. Another point is likely to prevent any noticable voltage sag and power drop by the end of the race. Many custom electric skateboards have bigger batteries than necessary to prevent voltage sag.

Based on my expereince with the Energica EGO sport... The battery voltage is lower on a lower state of charge, hehe make sense Sherlock right 😉. So below 40 or 30 % the bike is not that brutal agressive anymore. The MOTO E race would end in a energy saveing eco tour which would look wery boring. So the decicion was right in my view. the race is wery entertaining with no boring laps who everyone try to hold their position.
@hervebottollier-curtet8883
@hervebottollier-curtet8883 4 года назад
Why a 40 % State of Charge (SoC) at the end of the race ? Because of "Voltage Sag" : when the SoC decreases, you can no longer ask the battery to deliver its nominal voltage. And less volts means less kWs, because Power = Volt x Amp. Well-known phenomena among Tesla's users : Adigitalnomad . net did a test entitled "Things stop working when Tesla battery gets low" : 20-70 mph with a Tesla Model S at Soc 5%. Result : 8 s, roughly 4 times more than the performance of a fully charged Model S.

Yes, but could they provide the production, the safety, the durability, the experience, the support, the quality, or the longevity that circuit racing demands? 7 e-moto manufacturers competed to supply moto-e bikes- while there are other great electric moto manufacturers, Energica was chosen because it could deliver on the demands of world class moto racing better than others could at the time of selection. Based on what I’ve learned about the company, I think moto-e made the right choice.
