Zoomi Life

The Quantya Track was the rival of (and eventual winner over) the Zero X in the MiniMoto all-electric exhibition in Las Vegas on Friday.  That’s when I realized that somehow, we’d overlooked covering this awesome supermoto from Switzerland.

Quantya claims that the Track won because of its superior Swiss Electric Movement.  I think it was superior handling by riders Brian Roth and David Lodermeier of the Quantya U.S. team. The Zero has a little more power and speed than the Quantya, but the Swiss bike is a little smaller and, if you watched the race, definitely got more air time off the mounds.

Whatever you think, these Tracks are some serious little electric machines. They use an usual axial-gap brushed motor with a 12kW output (31.5Nm torque) with a belt and chain transmission.  This translates to a fair amount of umph for such a small ride, weighing in at only 93kg (205 lbs).

These bikes will be available in the U.S. in just a few weeks at dealerships nationwide as the EVO1 Track for around $9,000USD.

The bike’s sister, a street-ready enduro called the EVO1 Strada, will be available as well.  It’s basically the same machine, but with head and tail lights, a rearview mirror, and signals. The price point for it is about the same.

Here’s some great video (more on Quantya’s site, linked below):
