UTILITY UNLEASHED
HUMAN-MACHINE INTERACTION REACHES A NEW THRESHOLD WITH THE NEW BIANCHI E-SUV: A DISRUPTIVE E-MTB, WITH 720WH BATTERY AND INTEGRATED LIGHTS, THAT EMBODIES THE MARRIAGE OF STYLE AND FUNCTION
INSPIRATION
Bianchi Lif-e, the new world of Bianchi Electric Intelligence, presents e-SUV: the new generation of e-bikes designed with user interaction in mind.
e-SUV stands for electric sports utility vehicle. It’s about going anywhere, following your spirit of adventure.
It’s the bike that embodies the Bianchi Lif-E program of electric intelligence.
– Create new design and functionality for the best e-mobility
– Improve the e-riding experience through human-machine interface
– Support the cyclist to ride with style and safely
DEVELOPMENT CRITERIA
With the idea to create a new generation of e-bikes, Bianchi let design, integration and function be the guides of its product development process
DESIGN
The design of the Bianchi e-SUV is highly innovative.
The full carbon frame shows edgy shaped triangles, inspired by the Dolomites to create a connection between nature and technology.
INTEGRATION
– Integrated motor unit and battery
– Integrated handlebar
– Integrated lights (front and rear)
BATTERY
The Bianchi SUV features a 720Wh fully integrated battery.
The battery cover features a unique cooling system inspired by the self ventilated facased in modern architecture. It works as a forced air vertical duct that prevents the engine and the battery from overheating. An intake allows the fresh air to enter from the top. The fresh air flows trough an nternal duct above the battery and escapes from the bottom. This flow works as a vacuum system reduces the heat of both the battery and the motor.
SAFETY
Attention to rider’s safety and well-being is key to the Bianchi Lif-e project. With this in mind we have designed the new e-SUV with integrated front, side and rear led lights. Light are designed in cooperation with Spanninga
