The Energica EVA Ribelle is highly recognizable on track, not only because of its distinctive 'fighter jet' sound but also due to the new PETRONAS livery sporting the Malaysian company's iconic green. The two companies recently signed a partnership agreement that links them at many levels, with PETRONAS Iona being the brand shown on the #137 machine. Iona is the range of fluids designed by PETRONAS for new energy vehicles.
"Energica is always looking for new challenges that will advance the development path of the company" stated the Energica Motor Company Inc. CEO, Stefano Benatti. "Among these, we see our involvement in the Roland Sand Design's Super Hooligan National Championship, part of the MotoAmerica series, as really crucial, because Energica is the first and the only electric to compete directly against ICE (internal combustion engine) players for an entire season."
Tytlers Cycle Racing entered the EVA Ribelle into the Super Hooligan National Championship by MotoAmerica. Tytlers Cycle Racing was founded by Michael Kiley, the dealer principal of Tytlers Cycle in Wisconsin, where riders can test ride and purchase the Energica EsseEsse9, EVA Ribelle and Ego.
Off the racetrack, Energica's passionate riders are also setting records. Bruce Smart, a.k.a. Teapot One, made history when he completed a modified version of the Iron Butt Association U.K.'s Four Corners ride on an EVA Ribelle last year. The challenge involved traveling more than 2,300 miles in under four days, hitting all four corners of the United Kingdom. Also in 2022, rider Steven Day set a new electric cross-country motorcycle Cannonball record by riding his 2021 Energica EVA Ribelle from Redondo Beach, California, to New York City, New York, in 111 hours.
Since its introduction, the EVA Ribelle has received positive reviews and is a top seller for Energica. Recently, Top Speed named the EVA Ribelle the best electric motorcycle for 2022, noting its beautiful design and unmatched performance.
