OVERVIEW : The company is showcasing its first electric motorcycle offering through its TE-1 innovation . Working alongside Williams Advanced Engineering , Innovate UK , Integral e-Drive , and The University of Warwick .

The project is focused less on the bike itself and more so on the development of an electric powertrain to match the capabilities of its twin and triple cylinder engines .

Triumph ’ s latest motorcycle developments showcase great achievements by the company , retaining a similar style of bike to that of its fossil-fuel-powered models . Despite keeping the same aesthetic of a traditional Triumph motorcycle , the company is experiencing quite a few challenges in electrifying the product and making it appealing to traditional motorcycle riders .

“ By far the biggest issue with developing electric motorcycles in comparison to an electric car is that motorcycles are , of course , physically smaller vehicles where weight is a very important factor to how the bike handles and performs . Therefore , being able to package an electric powertrain that gives the customer what they want , in terms of both performance and range , is extremely challenging .”
