HOW TO EXTEND YOUR ELECTRIC MOTORCYCLE RANGE

Planning your electric motorcycle adventures strategically involves several common-sense steps.

• Find Charging Easily : You can easily find the nearest charging station directly on your display with Apple CarPlay. This way, there is no need to pull over and check your phone.

• Choose Flat Routes : Elevation impacts battery life just like fuel consumption in gas engines. Flatter roads are best for EV efficiency and will help you get the maximum range on every ride.

• Prioritize Secondary Roads : Sustained high speeds on highways drain your battery faster. Electric motorcycles perfom better in city conditions thanks to active & passive regen, which recovers energy during repetitive stops and decelerations.

• Consider Weather : Cold weather can affect your ride, especially below 10°C. Fortunately, BRP’s industry-leading technology with a cooling system and a special coolant ensure optimal heat transfer in low temperatures. This liquid-cooled system improves cooling in hot conditions and helps the motorcycle’s electric system reach ideal operating temperature when it’s cold.

💡How does it work: The special coolant transfers heat from one component to another when the temperature is not optimal and will help the colder component until it reaches the optimal temperature.

What makes this system exceptional is that the onboard charger, inverter, battery, and motor are all liquid-cooled. The antifreeze/coolant is specially formulated for BRP vehicles and offers long-lasting protection with a 5-year lifespan.

Maintain Balanced Speeds for Maximum Range

As mentioned above, try to avoid long sustained high speeds such as the highway since it will impact your range. Choosing flatter scenic routes makes for great experiences and helps conserve energy.

Your estimated range adjusts based on your current ride, so driving aggressively can result in a decreased estimated range for subsequent trips. It’s important to note that fast acceleration on your electric motorcycle doesn't just use a bit more energy, it uses a lot more! So, driving smoothly and at a consistent speed is the way to go if you want to get the most out of your battery range.

Use Regenerative Braking to Boost Efficiency 

Choose The Right Driving Modes

To make sure your electric motorcycle runs smoothly and efficiently, here are two simple tips :

• Make sure your tires are filled with the right amount of air to make riding smoother with less effort.

• Regularly maintain your motorcycle and follow your operator's guide for more information. Your Can-Am dealer is also always ready to help with maintenance.

Maximizing range is the best way for electric motorcycle riders to extend their adventures and make the most of every journey. By implementing simple tips like planning your route, minimizing weight, and conserving power, you can enjoy longer rides.
