Triumph Motorcycles has announced the official completion of the TE-1 electric development project. We've seen each stage of the project so far and the model looks incredible from tyre to tyre. This final product brings significant battery range, ultimate electric power and game-changing charge time - potentially the fastest charge time in the electric industry.

This little zapper churns out power with an incredible 0-60mph in 3.6 seconds and an outstanding 0-100mph in 6.2 seconds.
A game-changing charge time, of just 20 minutes can get you as much as 80% of maximum juice.
Weighing in at a mere 220kg, the power-to-weight ratio is phenomenal. Up to 25% lighter than comparable electric motorcycles on the market.
The final prototype demonstrates Triumph's class-leading design and gives you an insight into where Triumph may be going in the future. This outcome boasts a unique pure power and characterful engine, with a futuristic soundtrack that produces a spine-chilling adrenaline rush. The ergonomics have been modelled on the Speed Triple with the scale visual aesthetic of a Street Triple. Triumph's signature thrilling feel, handling and torque delivery come directly from the Speed Triple 1200 RS. A style almost familiar to you, the TE-1 could fit into the range seamlessly with Triumph's signature styling DNA.
By completing a huge list of tests, the model now achieves everything the project directors could have hoped for and exceeds targets in every division. The expertise and capabilities developed through the project now pave the way for the world's electric motorcycle future.

Laguna Motorcycles Limited (which include multiple trading names: Laguna Motorcycles, Laguna Performance Centre, Laguna Triumph, Maidstone Honda, Maidstone Harley-Davidson® and Kent Motorcycles) is an Appointed Representative of Automotive Compliance Ltd who is authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA No. 497010). Automotive Compliance Ltd’s permissions as a Principal Firm allows Laguna Motorcycles Limited (which include multiple trading names: Laguna Motorcycles, Laguna Performance Centre, Laguna Triumph, Maidstone Honda, Maidstone Harley-Davidson® and Kent Motorcycles) to act as a credit broker, not a lender, for the introduction to a limited number of lenders, and to act as an agent on behalf of the insurer for insurance distribution activities only.
We are a credit broker and not a lender. We can introduce you to a carefully selected panel of lenders, which includes manufacturer lenders linked directly to the franchises that we represent. We act on behalf of the lender for this introduction and not as your agent. We are not impartial, and we are not an independent financial advisor.
Our approach is to introduce you first to the manufacturer lender linked directly to the particular franchise you are purchasing your vehicle from, who are usually able to offer the best available package for you, taking into account both interest rates and other contributions. If they are unable to make you an offer of finance, we then seek to introduce you to whichever of the other lenders on our panel is able to make the next most suitable offer of finance for you. Our aim is to secure a suitable finance agreement for you that enables you to achieve your financial objectives. If you purchase a vehicle, in the majority of cases, we will receive a commission from your lender for introducing you to them which is either a fixed fee, or a fixed percentage of the amount that you borrow. This may be linked to the vehicle model you purchase.
Different lenders pay different commissions for such introductions, and manufacturer lenders linked directly to the franchises that we represent may also provide preferential rates to us for the funding of our vehicle stock and also provide financial support for our training and marketing. But any such amounts they and other lenders pay us will not affect the amounts you pay under your finance agreement; however, you will be contributing towards the commission paid to us with the interest collected on your repayments. Before we propose you to a potential lender, we will inform you of the likely amount of commission we will receive and seek your consent to receive this commission. The exact amount of commission that we will receive will be confirmed prior to you signing your finance agreement.
