TVS Motor Company has announced the launch of India's first-ever electric two-wheeler racing championship. It becomes the first Indian manufacturer to foray into the world of EV moto racing. The TVS Racing Electric One Make Championship (e-OMC) will be an exclusive format for racing on the electric TVS Apache RTE race motorcycles, that have been developed solely for the championship.
The TVS Racing e-OMC will debut at the 4th round of Indian National Motorcycle Road Racing Championship (INMRC). The first round of the championship will witness 8 participating riders who are hand picked. But it is the bike that really gets our attention because according to the company, it has the highest power-to-weight in its class with a liquid cooled motor & high efficiency liquid cooled motor controller.
The Apache RTE will get a Carbon fibre battery case that also acts as stressed member of the chassis.
It also will get a custom built advanced Battery Management System with race special algorithms for several advanced configuration controls and high levels of safety.
The TVS Apache RTE will come with carbon fibre front and rear wheels and Ohlins suspension on the front and rear. The single reduction, motor spindle is connected to rear wheel through sprockets and roller chain and stopping power comes from 320 mm front disc, calipers and master cylinder from Brembo. The tyres are of course Pirelli Super Corsa.
We can’t wait to see these bikes in action and we will be there to check them out when the race season begins.
Sudarshan Venu, Managing Director, TVS Motor Company said, “Many of the technologies that we pioneered in our racing machines have made way to our production vehicles, giving shape to our ‘track to road’ philosophy. In line with our vision of providing exciting and sustainable mobility solutions, we are thrilled to announce the debut of India’s first ever EV two wheeler racing.”
