Energica Ego Plus
Years: 2022 – 2024
Energica is Italy’s flagship electric-motorcycle manufacturer, born from CRP Group’s racing and advanced-materials expertise. The company’s first road models—the Ego superbike and Eva streetfighters—proved that an electric can carry the emotional voltage of an Italian exotic: sculptural bodywork, serious brakes and suspension, and acceleration that feels like being pulled by a magnet. Importantly, Energica didn’t treat software as an afterthought; ride modes, regen maps, and thermal strategies evolved through data-rich testing on road and track. As the inaugural spec supplier to the FIM MotoE World Cup, Energica hardened its technology under race conditions—fast charging between sessions, predictable performance across temperature windows, and safety protocols that reassured riders and marshals alike. On the street, owners praise chassis stability at speed and the way throttle finesse replaces gear changes as the core riding rhythm. Charging networks and pack density keep improving, but even early bikes demonstrated that 100-plus kilometers of spirited riding and regular DC top-ups unlock satisfying weekend routes. Historically, Energica matters because it anchored the premium end of e-motorcycling with credibility: Italian design, motorsport lineage, and engineering that respects feel as much as figures. It helped move the conversation past range anxiety to ride quality, making electrons desirable rather than merely responsible. In doing so, Energica carved out a future in which passion, performance, and sustainability coexist without compromise.
