Ecocharger is delighted to announce that the Ecocharger electric quad bike is available in Australia and New Zealand.

Managing Director, Michael Halloran said “We are excited to be bringing this technology to the local market. The Ecocharger quad is not simply an alternative to petrol bikes, but a genuine leap in technology. With performance that at least matches its petrol cousins, it is a game changer. And it’s not just the obvious peace, quiet, clean air and lack of jerry cans that you will notice. The regenerative braking, the lower centre of gravity and the cool, non-sparking engine, provide some safety features that just aren’t achievable on a petrol bike. On an Ecocharger you will truly stand out, very quietly, amongst the crowd.”

Two variants of the Ecocharger are being built and sold in Australia and New Zealand; the 4WD Eliminator and the 2WD Dominator. Both come equipped with a class leading 72V, 15kW engine that provides ample power and torque across the speed range.

The versatility and mobility of the Ecocharger is backed by European design quality and the quads are being built locally in Australia, so buyers can be assured of quick and effective support.

The Ecocharger quad bikes are zero emission and have a low noise signature, so are well suited to areas that are sensitive to emissions or for buyer’s who want to enhance their green credentials.

Halloran says the Ecocharger makes economic sense as well: “We have had a number of bikes operating in Australia and New Zealand for the last six months and this has given us great confidence.

The maintenance on an electric vehicle is substantially less than a petrol vehicle and this means lower maintenance costs and reduced down time. With a range of around 40km to the charge, that’s the equivalent of 6 or 7 litres of fuel on the average petrol quad bike – all for just $1 of electricity.”
