Urban Moto Imports added that it is excited to embrace the new era electric motorcycles and strongly believes Super SOCO will become a strong brand in Australia.

Joseph Elasmar – Urban Moto Imports CEO

“We are forever in a changing landscape for both motorcycles, motorcycle culture and transport for the general public. Electric powered vehicles are already beginning to become the norm and for many reasons including their practicality of being less expensive to run, their low environmental impact and affordability for high quality. In congested built up cities, Super SOCO electric motorcycles offer the general non-driving community, the chance to own an affordable and economical form of transport that is light, practical and good looking at the same time. Commuting just became that little bit more special with the Super SOCO and we are very confident it will lead the way in the electric motorcycles space.”

Super SOCO Australia & NZ have also announced the model lineup to include Super SOCO TS, TC and the C-UX scooter variants.


Super SOCO TS

The Super SOCO ‘TS’ TS1200R is an electric ‘moped’ as the brand describes it, and is developed in co-operation with Bosch, and designed to meet the needs of modern riders.

The Super SOCO TS boasts a range of up to 160km, with 120Nm of torque and features two Li-Ion batteries of 26Ah each. Charge time is approximately five hours, with the brand claiming a running weight of just 78kg including the batteries.

The two-seat e-bike features a wheelbase of 1320mm and will accelerate up an incline of 15-degrees from a standstill.

An LED headlight and taillights, smartphone connectivity, an electronic braking system (EBS) with two disc brakes, front and rear, recovers power into the batteries.

A light weight aluminium and steel alloy frame assists in keeping weight down and the peg position can be changed to suit various rider heights.

A FOC or field orientated control system is used as an ECU and brain of the e-bike, with a large LCD display featuring three different modes and keyless locking system.

The Super SOCO TC is a cafe racer styled option with a higher torque output than the TS – 150Nm compared to 120Nm – and also features a three-speed proportional drive system, working similarly to a gearbox or ride modes. Styling features include the retro headlight, heightened ‘bars, leather clad flat seat and eight-split-spoke wheels.

A Bosch 17-in magnetic power motor is featured and delivers that strong torque figure thanks to two Lithium battery packs with overcharge protection, over discharge protection and temperature protection. Like the TS, the TC offers up to a 160km range.
