Zongshen has announced a 1.5-liter extended-range electric bike. The Zongshen ES5 extended-range version is a hybrid vehicle that offers great performance. The battery life of the Zongshen ES5 can sustain the bike for up to 300km.

The Zongshen new energy motorcycle is under the Senlan Electric brand and is equipped with a set of 60V 31Ah lithium batteries. The pure electric range of the ES5 is put at 70km while the comprehensive range is about 300km. The minimum fuel consumption of the new Zongshen motorcycle is 1.5L/ 100km when the battery power is incorporated. The ES5 also comes in a pure electric version with two or three 60V 31Ah lithium battery packs. The range of the pure electric version of the model reaches 180km for the three-battery setup.

Senlan Electric has several innovations that it has introduced in the industry in recent times. The brand launched the Senlan extended-range technology platform C-REEV last month. The extended range design when implemented, ensures that a vehicle has a worry-free endurance and this applies to the ES5. The technology can continuously charge the battery of the EV while driving or parked, which translates to minimal waiting time for charging and an extended range. The model also offers pure electric power for short distances and power generation for long distances.

There are multiple charging modes to meet the various usage modes of the ES5. Ordinary household 220V charging takes 2-3 hours to fully recharge a single battery, while the Car AC charging station 2200W fast charging is achieved in 40 minutes. The extended-range platform power generation provides minimum state-of-charge fuel consumption of 1.5L/100km. The C-REEV power recovery mode provides a continuous small amount of power feedback.

The ES5 equipped with the C-REEV requires a more conservative battery architecture translating to lower cost. It also provides a maximum external discharge of 1000W which can be transformed into a large mobile power supply. The release and pricing details are expected for the Zongshen extended-range ES5 motorcycles.
