The ecological revolution on two wheels: Ambre Tech’s strategy
The innovative company Ambre Tech is rethinking urban mobility with its electric motorcycle equivalent to a 125 cc engine, while advocating for increased respect for the environment. Ambre Tech focuses on an extended battery lifecycle, drawing from a proven route, the Renault ZOE, for a second life, all crafted within an eco-responsible approach with entirely French design.
A German-hearted electric core
Despite a base power of 5 kW and a peak of 15 kW, the engine chosen for this electric motorcycle is not insignificant. It boasts a robust torque of 80 Nm, though below the performance of some competitors, like the Zero S with its 109 Nm. The source of this energy? A providentially supplied motor from Mahle, known for the performance of its equipment – notably on electric bicycles. Distinctive feature: this synchronous induction motor skips rare earths, such as neodymium, which is an undeniable ecological advantage.
An ingenious battery with a reduced carbon footprint
The NMC lithium pack planned for this motorcycle amazes with its usable capacity of 10 kWh, offering a range of up to 200 km in urban areas. However, the real innovation lies in the battery’s composition, assembled from cells recovered and recycled from old Renault ZOEs through the intervention of Indra Automobile Recycling. This initiative allows Ambre Tech to boast a reduced environmental impact by half compared to its counterparts, a notable victory knowing that battery production is one of the most criticized components in the carbon footprint of electric vehicles.
The impressive figures of an electrifying mount
With a top speed of 135 km/h and a weight of 215 kg, the Ambre motorcycle stands out for its impressive speed for a relatively controlled weight, parameters that accentuate its attractive potential in the market.
Towards an innovative synergy between company and community
Ambre Tech’s adventure was not written in isolation. It is the result of close collaboration between the company and the “Club des pionniers” association, combining the expertise of engineers, designers, and enthusiasts. A synergy that marks a break with the more opaque practices of industry giants and could significantly reduce greenhouse gas emissions compared to new electric vehicles and even more so compared to thermal models.
An assertive sporty aesthetic for the road
Beyond its technical characteristics, the motorcycle envisioned by Ambre Tech also stands out for its sporty look and raw design. The imposing aspect of the powertrain block, the two-seater saddle designed for getaways for two, all harmonizing with a head-turning style, are all elements that contribute to the visual identity of this motorcycle.
