Electric Motorcycle FAQs

The Savic C-Series starts at an MSRP of $29,990 AUD (excluding local destination fees and international import duties). Each motorcycle is built to order at our Melbourne facility, allowing commercial clients and private buyers to select bespoke colorways, badging, seat configurations, and performance options.

Global procurement begins with a build consultation where specifications are finalized, followed by precision hand-assembly, quality inspection, and export logistics coordination.

Yes. Savic Motorcycles operates a flexible made-to-order assembly line. Available customization packages include:

• Bodywork Finishes: Hand-laid lightweight carbon fiber, Atomic Silver, Racing Green, Pistachio, or custom client-specified Pantone finishes.
• Seating Systems: Single-rider solo cowl or dual-rider pillion setup in premium black or natural brown leather.
• Headlamp Assemblies: Classic heritage circular LED housing or stacked modern projector arrays.
• Braking & Trim Hardware: Custom anodized rear pulleys, badge inserts, and caliper accent colors.

The C-Series is fully compliant with Australian Design Rules (ADR), meeting stringent safety, structural integrity, and lighting requirements across all Australian states and territories. For international importers in Europe, North America, and Asia-Pacific, Savic Motorcycles provides complete homologation support and technical documentation to verify compliance with local road safety authorities.

The C-Series utilizes automotive-grade Lithium-ion NMC 811 (Nickel, Manganese, Cobalt) cells. Selected for maximum energy density and power output, the pack is cell-balanced and thermally managed via integrated cold plates.

Under laboratory testing at 1C charge/discharge rates, the cells demonstrate over 2,000 full charge cycles before reaching 80% capacity retention. In practical usage, this translates to an estimated operational life exceeding 200,000 km. The Energy Storage System (ESS) is backed by an official 5-year OEM warranty.

The motorcycle is equipped with a 3.3 kW onboard AC charger and an industry-standard Type 2 (IEC 62196) connection port, making it compatible with universal Level 2 public charging stations and home wallboxes.

• 15A Circuit / Level 2 AC Charger (3.3 kW): 0% to 80% in approximately 4.0 hours; 0% to 100% in under 5.5 hours.
• Standard Household Wall Outlet (10A / 1.8 kW): 0% to 100% in approximately 8 to 9 hours (ideal for overnight charging).

Note: DC Fast Charging (CCS) is deliberately excluded to maintain low curb weight, optimize chassis balance, and prevent high-temperature battery degradation.

The top-spec C-Series Alpha delivers up to 220 km of range in urban environments, where lower average speeds and regenerative braking maximize energy efficiency. At sustained highway speeds (100 km/h), aerodynamic drag reduces range to approximately 140 km.

The liquid-cooled SM1 motor outputs 80 kW (107 hp) and an instant 250 Nm of torque. Because electric torque is available immediately from 0 RPM without gear shifting or clutch modulation, acceleration matches or exceeds conventional 600cc–1000cc middleweight petrol motorcycles, achieving 0–100 km/h in 3.5 seconds.

Upon throttle roll-off, the liquid-cooled motor switches to generator mode, creating counter-rotational torque on the rear wheel while capturing kinetic energy to recharge the 16.2 kWh battery pack. Regeneration intensity can be customized on a 1-to-10 scale via the 7-inch touchscreen, allowing riders to simulate light two-stroke coasting or heavy four-stroke engine braking.

Every Savic C-Series is built with proven, world-class motorcycle hardware:

• Braking: Dual Brembo M4 monoblock radial calipers with 320mm floating front discs and an integrated Bosch ABS unit.
• Final Drive: Low-maintenance Optibelt Delta Chain 8MDC carbon synchronous belt paired with a single-sided cast aluminum swingarm.
• Tires: High-grip Pirelli Diablo Rosso III radial tires (120/70-17 front, 180/55-17 rear).
• Frame: Structural cast aluminum backbone unit doubling as the IP67-rated battery enclosure.

Electric motorcycles dramatically reduce total cost of ownership (TCO) compared to internal combustion engines. With no engine oil, spark plugs, air filters, clutch plates, or primary chains, scheduled maintenance is limited to periodic brake fluid flushes, tire replacement, belt tension checks, and coolant level inspection every 12 months or 12,000 km.

The Savic C-Series comes with comprehensive manufacturer warranties:

• Vehicle Components: 2-year / unlimited kilometer warranty on all non-consumable mechanical and electrical components.
• Energy Storage System (ESS): 5-year warranty covering the battery pack, battery management system (BMS), and internal wiring.
