KillaCycle – During a live broadcast for the presentation of the fastest electric motorcycle in the world, from 0 to 100 km/h in less than a second, the driver is unable to control the vehicle and crashes into a car. The accident is serious and they take him to the hospital by ambulance.

A funny story for what is considered the fastest electric motorcycle in the world. The KillaCycle is a two-wheeler capable of delivering more 500 CV and accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in less than a second. The secret of the KillaCycle is the batteries. In fact, the powerful A123 system, composed of nano-phosphate batteries, is what makes this car truly special. The KillaCycle is a true record-setter as it was the fastest electric vehicle over the quarter mile, 7,824 seconds at 280 mph average, and, again, the first electric vehicle to break the eight seconds in an endurance race, in November 2007. Furthermore, it was the first electric vehicle to surpass the 270 km/h in the quarter mile. KillaCycle is the result of years of effort on the part of Bill Dubé, its creator, its sponsors and its team members.

Dubé is a true expert on “particular racing cars“. In fact, in addition to KillaCycle, he created the KillaJoule which weighs only 700 kg and in September it reached i 389 km/h, many if you think that we are talking about an electric sidecar. The nose, roof and wheel cover of the sidecar are made of a composite of fiberglass and resin produced by the American NovaKinetics. The AFM-240 electric motor has 500 horsepower and 1.110 Nm of torque available from 0 to 200 miles per hour. It is powered by a battery made up of 4 modules of 56 cells (2 cells in parallel, 28 in series) lithium nano-phosphate of 400 V and 10 kWh. In addition to disc brakes, it boasts two Kevlar parachutes, which can be operated with pneumatic cylinders.
