FEATURE - Dieses Superbike will den elektrischen Landgeschwindigkeitsrekord brechen
This superbike will aim to break the electric land world speed record.
The Wattman is the first high-performance electric motorcycle made by French company Voxan, specially designed for the project.
Voxan announced this month (July 2020) they will be looking to break the current 329 km/h (204.48 miles/h) record and hope to achieve speeds beyond 330 km/h (205.05 miles/h).
In July 2021, the 270 kW (367 HP) Voxan Wattman will attempt to set a new world speed record on the Salar de Uyuni salt flat in Bolivia. Riding this exceptional machine will be six-time motorcycle racing world champion Max Biaggi.
Uniquely, the Wattman is an entirely new concept, not based on any existing vehicle. When the teams at Voxan Motors first began working on the project in the autumn of 2018, they started totally from scratch with a blank page. From there, everything quickly snowballed: "We were keen to move fast", explains Louis-Marie Blondel, who both oversaw the project’s development and personally test-rode the motorcycle.
"So we focused on two main points: drag (aerodynamics) and stability at high-speed. We were aiming to have the smallest possible projected area, but with a long wheelbase and a large rake, so the rider would be positioned as low as possible.
“We then identified a target speed, based on the existing record, which was originally 327.6 km/h (203.56 miles/h), but which was set at just over 329 km/h (204.48 miles/h) (by Ryuji Tsuruta, riding a MOBITEC EV-02A) in the autumn of 2019. That made no difference to our roadmap, as we were already aiming for a minimum of 330 km/h (205.05 miles/h)."

FEATURE - Dieses Superbike will den elektrischen Landgeschwindigkeitsrekord brechen
This superbike will aim to break the electric land world speed record.
The Wattman is the first high-performance electric motorcycle made by French company Voxan, specially designed for the project.
Voxan announced this month (July 2020) they will be looking to break the current 329 km/h (204.48 miles/h) record and hope to achieve speeds beyond 330 km/h (205.05 miles/h).
In July 2021, the 270 kW (367 HP) Voxan Wattman will attempt to set a new world speed record on the Salar de Uyuni salt flat in Bolivia. Riding this exceptional machine will be six-time motorcycle racing world champion Max Biaggi.
Uniquely, the Wattman is an entirely new concept, not based on any existing vehicle. When the teams at Voxan Motors first began working on the project in the autumn of 2018, they started totally from scratch with a blank page. From there, everything quickly snowballed: "We were keen to move fast", explains Louis-Marie Blondel, who both oversaw the project’s development and personally test-rode the motorcycle.
"So we focused on two main points: drag (aerodynamics) and stability at high-speed. We were aiming to have the smallest possible projected area, but with a long wheelbase and a large rake, so the rider would be positioned as low as possible.
“We then identified a target speed, based on the existing record, which was originally 327.6 km/h (203.56 miles/h), but which was set at just over 329 km/h (204.48 miles/h) (by Ryuji Tsuruta, riding a MOBITEC EV-02A) in the autumn of 2019. That made no difference to our roadmap, as we were already aiming for a minimum of 330 km/h (205.05 miles/h)."
