科幻成真！没有轮毂的电动摩托车续航200公里，售价19万元

科幻成真，RMK-E2无轮毂电动摩托车你见过吗？

E2：最具创新，没有之一

RMK’s E2 has one of the most innovative motor designs we’ve seen so far in an electric motorcycle.

RMK的E2车型，是迄今为止我们看到的最具创新的电动摩托车设计之一。

It takes only one look at the RMK E2 to spot the difference. There’s no hub in the rear wheel. And yet, the motor is still situated inside the rear wheel. It’s a hub motor without a hub, so to speak.

只需看一眼，就能发现E2和普通摩托车的区别。它的后轮没有轮毂。然而，电机仍然位于后轮内。

The team scored some track time at the Alastaro Racing Circuit in Finland to test out the E2 electric motorcycle. The guys spent most of the time testing the functionality of the bike as well as its range. RMK has previously stated that the E2 should be capable of reaching between 200-300 km (120-180 mi) of range, depending on riding conditions.

团队在芬兰的阿拉斯塔罗赛道花了很多时间去测试E2的功能和它的续航力。RMK公司此前曾表示，E2的电池续航力能够达到200-300公里(120-180英里)，取决于E2的行驶条件。

Here’s how track testing went, according to the team:

根据团队的说法，跟踪测试是这样进行的：

A highlight of our testing involved a visit to the Alastaro Racing Circuit. The team put the E2 through its paces for over six hours of throttle-on time, testing range, and general functionality. There was a buzz of excitement and smiles all around after seeing the E2 really get to work on the track.

我们测试的亮点之一是在阿拉斯塔罗赛道上进行。团队对E2进行了超过6小时的测试，包括持续驾驶时间、行驶路程和常规功能。看到E2在赛道上真正跑起来了，大家都很兴奋。

In addition to our testing program, we have been building strong relationships with the suppliers of our motorcycle’s key components, making sure that reliability, durability and quality are embedded in to the DNA of the E2.

除了我们的测试项目，我们一直与摩托车重要部件的供应商建立牢固关系，E2的电池续航力能够达到200-300公里(120-180英里)，取决于E2的行驶条件。性能优良，价格昂贵

The E2 is projected to have a top speed of around 160 km/h or 100 mph. That certainly wouldn’t surpass much of the mainstream 2020 lineup of electric motorcycles, such as the 200 km/h (124 mph) Zero SR/F or the 240 km/h (150 mph) Lightning Strike.

E2设计最高时速约为160公里（100英里）。相较于计划2020年推出的主流款式 “雷击”系列，E2的速度又略逊于对方，毕竟“毕竟Zero SR/F和雷击”的时速能达到200公里（124英里）甚至240公里（150英里）。

注：mph是mile per hour的缩写，是速度计量单位，表示英里/小时。

But the RMK E2’s speed would be commensurate with much of the rest of Zero’s lineup as well as the upcoming Harley-Davidson LiveWire electric motorcycle.

RMK-E2的速度将与Zero系列的其他大部分车型，以及即将上市的“哈雷戴维森”旗下的LiveWire电动摩托车相当。

Preorders have already opened for the RMK E2, and early adopters can reserve their own for €2,000 ($2,300). But to make the E2 yours, you’ll have to tack on another €23,000 ($26,600). That’s pretty steep in comparison to some tamer electric motorcycles we’re eyeing coming out of Asia, but still cheaper than some of the other high-powered electric motorcycles produced in Europe.

E2已经可以在官网进行预购，定金为2000英镑(2300美元，折合人民币1.6万元)，但是尾款要23000英镑(26600美元，折合人民币18.9万元)。与我们关注的一些亚洲产电动摩托车相比，这个价格相当昂贵，但仍然比欧洲产的其他一些大功率的电动摩托车便宜。发烧爱好者：十分期待，看好前景

The RMK E2 has been a fascinating electric motorcycle to follow throughout its development.

E2一直是一款引人入胜的电动摩托车，我一直密切关注着它的整个开发过程。

While I watched with a mixture of excitement and a healthy dose of skepticism in the beginning as renderings began to leak out, I’ve grown increasingly bullish on the prospect of the RMK E2 actually hitting the road eventually.

当看到车辆渲染图的预告时，我既兴奋又期待，我越来越看好E2上路后的市场前景。

I never expected this bike to be cheap, but that’s a theme we’ve been seeing a lot of lately. Expensive electric motorcycles in the premium category may be rolling out first before we see a slew of new affordable e-motos.

最近我们已经看到很多售价适中的电动摩托车，但没想到E2会如此便宜。在一系列价格适中的电动摩托车问世之前，高档型、价格昂贵的电动摩托车可能会率先被推出。

That doesn’t mean affordable electric motorcycles don’t exist. I had fun thrashing on the modestly priced 2019 Zero FXS recently. The RMK E2, however, just doesn’t have the “affordable electric motorcycle” look to it.

这并不意味着价格适中的电动摩托车就不存在。2019年出产的Zero系列的FXS车型，价格适中，我也玩得很开心。然而，E2却拥有“价格适中的电动摩托车”所没有的炫酷外观。
