McLaren, known for its high-performance and luxurious sports cars, is now venturing into the world of electric bicycles with a limited edition range.
Developed by the same team that creates supercars like the Artura, McLaren’s first electric bicycles, the Extreme 600 and the Sport 600, are two high-performance electric bicycles that use advanced materials such as full suspension with a 29″ front wheel, 27.5″ rear wheel, 145 mm rear travel, and 160 mm fork travel.
Furthermore, like McLaren’s supercars, the brand’s new e-bikes are made of lightweight and durable carbon fiber, ensuring high performance and durability.
McLaren has announced that its new range of electric mountain bikes offers selectable power modes through its integrated instrument panel on the handlebar. Cyclists can choose between various modes, ranging from Eco mode, which conserves energy, to Race mode, which provides higher power output and maximum torque for an adrenaline-filled experience.
This more radical mode offers a peak power of 852 W (600 W continuous) and a maximum speed of 32 km/h. The maximum torque is 161 Nm. To complement the exceptional performance, all versions of the Extreme 600 feature Pirelli tires, ensuring superior grip.
En tout, la nouvelle gamme de VTT électriques de McLaren se compose de quatre modèles, Extreme 250, Extreme 600, Sport 250 et Sport 600. McLaren n’a pas révélé le prix de ces nouvelles « hyperbicyclettes » à haute performance, mais on sait déjà que les versions 250 commencent à 8400 € pour la variante Sport, et à 11 150 € pour la version Extreme.
