Italian designer Antonio Serrano has put up a set of renderings, playing a “what-if?” game of Tesla manufacturing an electric motorcycle. This design concept would be made out of carbon fiber, aluminium, and high-strength plastic for lightness and strength.
Dubbed the “Tesla e-Bike” by Serrano, the concept calls for hub-center steering, an engineering design last seen in public on the Bimota Tesi and Yamaha GTS 1000 over 20 years ago. An OLED dashboard display shows all essential information required in a high-tech, minimalistic fashion.
“Tesla e-Bike is a conceptual project based on a vision what if Tesla Motors manufactured an electric motorcycle. Just like Tesla principles, this e-bike is high-tech, fast, efficient, and ecological,” says Serrano. No word on whether Elon Musk might be interested in this other-worldy design, but it certainly looks sleek and efficient.
What do you think? Would this be your choice for an electric bike? Leave a comment with your thoughts and opinions below.
No
which one is the front?
Maybe the rider can ride on both ends?
Horrible. Looks like someone cut off the face of a beautiful model…
I want a bike which whenever I’m doing lap on the corner, I’m not fall down. It must be have some gravity control technology on it.
Tron’s light bike looks nicer.
er, the bike looks half-complete???
China already got many types, Cheap & Good.
he is trying to get a job from tesla is it?
I am 100% percent sure the designer isn’t a rider, not a cyclist even.
There are so many flaws that could potentially hurt/kill the rider of this thing!
1. Where do you put your legs on?
2. Why put the navigation panel on top of the “fuel” battery tank? If he looks down while riding guess what happens. At least position it after/above the handle position.
3. The headlights, what is that? It’s supposed to shine at where you’re going, not disperse all around sacrificing illuminated distance. It works, but not practical and dangerous if not bright enough.
No way Tesla would design anything like this. It would be laid back seating and very aero.
The aero in this one would cut range in half and Tesla always does good aero..
