Raptee HV T30: Design
The HV’s design is visually similar to various streetfighter bikes, featuring style cues such as an oval-shaped headlamp, an edgy front mudguard, and a split-seat configuration. One of the most evident EV-specific design features is the lack of an engine bay, with the side panel extending to the bottom. It has a 7-inch touchscreen display that includes navigation, Bluetooth connectivity, and OTA updates. The motorcycle is available in four colours: Arctic White, Eclipse Black, Mercury Grey, and Horizon Red.
Raptee HV T30: Features
In terms of cycle parts, the motorcycle comes with a USD front fork and a rear monoshock with adjustable preload. Braking is handled by a front 320 mm disc with dual-piston floating calipers and a rear 230 mm disc with a single-piston floating caliper. The motorcycle receives varying levels of regen braking, which are pre-set based on the ride mode.
Raptee HV T30: Powertrain
The bike’s powertrain has a 22 kW electric motor with a peak torque output of 70 Nm. The motorcycle has a top speed of 135 km/h and can accelerate from 0 to 60 km/h in 3.5 seconds. The bike has three riding modes: comfort, power, and sprint. The motorcycle has a 5.4 kWh battery pack that provides a real-world range of 150 km. The vehicle also includes a CCS2 charging outlet.
