Question 1

What is the Savic C-Series electric motorcycle?

Accepted Answer

The Savic C-Series is a high-performance electric café racer powered by a liquid-cooled 80 kW motor producing 250 Nm of torque. It is designed, engineered and hand-assembled by Savic Motorcycles in West Melbourne, Australia, and every bike is built to order.

Question 2

Where are Savic electric motorcycles made?

Accepted Answer

Every Savic C-Series is designed, engineered and hand-assembled at the Savic facility in West Melbourne, Victoria, Australia. Each motorcycle is built to order for its owner.

Question 3

How far can the Savic C-Series travel on a single charge?

Accepted Answer

In mixed city riding, the C-Series delivers approximately 220 km from its 16.2 kWh battery. Real-world range depends on speed, temperature, rider weight and the regenerative braking level selected.

Question 4

How long does the C-Series take to charge?

Accepted Answer

A full charge takes approximately 4.5 hours from a 15A outlet (Level 2, 3.3 kW). The bike also charges from a standard 10A wall outlet at 1.8 kW. DC fast charging is not supported.

Question 5

Is the Savic C-Series road-legal and what licence is required?

Accepted Answer

The C-Series is ADR-compliant and registrable across all Australian states and territories. In Australia it requires a full, unrestricted motorcycle licence, registration and CTP insurance. Riders outside Australia should contact Savic to discuss local compliance requirements.

Question 6

How does regenerative braking work on the C-Series?

Accepted Answer

When decelerating, the motor generates reverse torque and feeds energy back into the battery. Riders can set regeneration on a 1 to 10 scale, from a free-rolling glide to strong engine-style braking, which extends range and reduces mechanical brake wear.

Question 7

What maintenance does an electric motorcycle like the C-Series need?

Accepted Answer

There are no oil changes, spark plugs or clutch adjustments. The carbon belt drive maintains consistent tension because the rear pulley is concentric to the motor axis, keeping maintenance low. Scheduled servicing and aftersales support are provided by the Savic team.

Question 8

Can I customise my Savic C-Series?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Each C-Series is built to order with configurable bodywork, badging, seat and headlamp options, from blacked-out carbon fibre to bold custom colours such as Racing Green or Pistachio.
