How does it compare?
When we pit the Triumph TE-1 against other premium electric motorcycles like the Zero SR/F, Harley-Davidson LiveWire, and Energica Ego, it sparks a fascinating clash of electric titans.
Speed
The Triumph TE-1 flaunts a top speed of 120 mph (193 km/h). The Zero SR/F dances in the same range with its 124 mph (200 km/h) speed, barely nudging past the TE-1. The Harley-Davidson LiveWire manages a respectable 110 mph (177 km/h), keeping it close but not quite in the TE-1s league. Meanwhile, the heavy-hitter Energica Ego roars ahead at 150 mph (241 km/h), marking its territory definitively in the speed arena.
Range
Travel distance on a single charge is a clincher for many. The Triumph TE-1 offers a humane 120 miles (193 km) range. The suave Zero SR/F extends this liberty to 161 miles (259 km), ensuring fewer pit stops. The iconic Harley-Davidson LiveWire serenades with an impressive 146 miles (235 km). But it’s the Energica Ego that swoops in with a 124 mile (200 km) range, holding the mid-ground in this electrifying contest.
Power
The power dynamics get enticing when the Triumph TE-1 harnesses 177 horsepower (132 kW). The Zero SR/F basks in glory with 110 horsepower (82 kW), a respectable advocate for power but not quite a TE-1 rival. The Harley-Davidson LiveWire thunders with 105 horsepower (78 kW), slightly undercutting the Zero. Then barrels in the Energica Ego with the brawn of 145 horsepower (108 kW), carving its niche amid the power struggle.
Charging Time
The clock ticks differently when youre waiting. The Triumph TE-1 claims a crisp 35-minute recharge to 80%, itching for green lights quicker. Zero SR/F holds steady, asking for 60 minutes for a 95% charge – practical yet not lightning-fast. Harley-Davidson LiveWire demands patience with its 60 minutes to 80%, trailing the pack. The beyond-industry-standard Energica Ego clocks in with 40 minutes to 85%, balancing haste with range replenishment perfectly.
Price
Then, wallets set the pace. At $19,000 (£15,000, €17,600), the Triumph TE-1 stabilizes as a high-caliber but accessible juggernaut. The Zero SR/F asks $20,995 (£16,500, €19,460), marginally pricier yet hanging in the same ballpark. The renowned badge of Harley-Davidson LiveWire asks for $21,999 (£17,300, €20,400), leveraging brand appeal. And the audacious Energica Ego commands a princely $23,870 (£18,750, €22,140), ensuring performance over economical allure.
