Porsche eBike Performance tease new motor development

The CEO of Porsche eBike Performance, Dr Jan Becker, has shared a brief update outlining development work on the first Porsche eBike Performance motor.

The business, which owns Greyp and Fazua, and has co-developed Cyklear eBikes with long term collaboration partner Storck, shared that, “For more than a year now, countless design and development hours have been poured into the first Porsche e-bike drive unit, with many more to come.”

Commenting further on the process, and the ultimate goal, Becker states, “… we want our new smart drive system to set new standards in quality, usability and on-the-bike experience. That is why our first A-sample testing is well underway. A special moment for all involved and a significant step towards making our vision a reality. A few days ago, I was lucky enough to go on a test ride through the foothills of the Alps—very promising, even if there is still lots to do!”

Sharing some insight into the development of the new business unit, Becker notes, “In 1948, Ferry Porsche set out to meld performance and utmost efficiency. Ever since that time, the brand has embodied both tradition and innovation, design and functionality, exclusivity and social acceptability. It is this legacy that the Porsche eBike Performance team is trying to port from four wheels to two.”

The business began 2023 with a recruitment drive, following the completion of the businesses first cross-brand, cross-site, strategy workshop, in December of 2022.
