Title: Energica model history
Post by: tango on January 03, 2019, 01:47:35 AM
I've been looking into the Energica brand and I think I am going to pull the trigger on a "new" dealer leftover.  The question I have is:  What are the differences year over year?

From what I have gathered in my limited searching around the interwebs...

2015
- EGO launched - 136 hp and 144 lb/ft.

2016
- EGO no change
- EVA - launched - has "detuned" 95 hp 125 lb/ft though the motor is the same as EGO (per Ultimatemotorcycling)

2017
- EGO power increase to 145 hp and 148 lb/ft.
- EVA power increase to 109 hp and 133 lb/ft.

2018
Firmware update to increase CCS charging from 60A 18kw to 70A 21kw (retroactive to all years)
- EGO no change
- EVA "107" - motor increased to match EGO - 145 hp 148 lb/ft
- Esse Esse 9 - launched - 109 hp 133 lb/ft

2019
All models get Traction Control, Cruise Control, and Heated Grips (per MCN)
- EGO no change
- EVA no change
- SS9 no change


Please let me know if I have missed anything as I am piecing together info from multiple sources and not a lot of detail is given about specs.  I don't know when specific major firmware updates have occurred and what benefits they may have given - I will add those if there are any.

What is the difference of the range, if any, between Eva 107 and ss9 if ridden the same together?

Great question and one I was wondering as well.  They are the same motor, it's just "detuned" in the SS9.

The Eva 107 came out in 2018. I have one.

There has been a recent firmware update. The biggest improvement is faster charging speed on CCS. Charging speed went from 60A and 18kw to 70A and 21kw.

Wonder if the heated grips will be available from Energica to purchase from previous years?

Hi,

Nice way to gather the data. To my knowledge I have the following additions:

- The Ego was in production in 2015 before the Eva was launched in 2016, see link (sorry Dutch)
https://www.testmotor.nl/2015/rij-impressie-energica-ego (https://www.testmotor.nl/2015/rij-impressie-energica-ego)

- Firmware update 60A to 70A CCS was not recent, but was already issued in May 2018, the same with the adjustable charging current on the bike.


Consumption
I have a friend with an EVA 107. On Dutch roads small mixed highway trips, travelling together, the SOC stays is within a percentage remarkably equal, me naked Esse, no luggage, him with EVA+screen and EVA luggage.

On a trip to the Harz Germany, the EVA 107 appeared even more economical: me with wider Givi604 luggage and no screen, him with screen, EVA luggage and small rolled bag on the back seat.

From an engine design there is no difference, it's only your wrist and aerodynamics that make the difference ::)

Did your friend ever do some range differences with and without the screen?  I have heard from Zero owners that claim a 5-10% range increase with a screen on the DSR.  Not sure how accurate that is though.

No, the screen was already factory-fitted on his Eva. My EsseEsse9 did not have a screen (available) when it was delivered and I got it later. It's hard to tell a precise difference in daily commute, because I got it in early autumn, lower temp. I also drive the bike harder ;), less and less looking at the SOC. I do believe it saves energy when going on the highway specially ducking behind the screen makes the consumption lower. I believe the Zero owners' claims.
