Electric motorcycles built for delivery, not for weekends
Two models, one swap network. Both are specified for commercial duty cycles in UAE conditions: heat-tolerant packs, cargo-ready frames, and IoT tracking as standard.
What Swap Energy motorcycles are
Swap Energy supplies two commercial electric motorcycles in the UAE: the EG1, a 9 kW mid-drive machine with 110 km of range for long delivery shifts, and the ADV, a 4 kW dual-battery model built for dense urban routes. Both are battery-swap ready and are exchanged at Swap Energy stations across Dubai in under two minutes.
The bike is a third of the product
A motorcycle you can't power is a liability. Swap Energy motorcycles are sold with access to the swap network, servicing and genuine parts, and Smart Control fleet software, because the thing that keeps a delivery fleet running is the system around the bike, not the bike alone.
ADV: the urban workhorse
The ADV runs dual 74V 28Ah lithium packs for 100+ km of range, tops out at 90 km/h on a 4 kW hub motor, and adds a reverse gear. It is lighter and more compact than the EG1, which is what matters on high-drop-density routes.

Two packs, more working hours
Dual 74V 28Ah lithium batteries give 100+ km of range and let a rider swap one pack while continuing on the other.
Reverse gear
Manoeuvring a loaded bike out of a tight parking bay or a service lift, without dismounting.
Sized for traffic
Lighter and more compact than the EG1, which is what matters on high-drop-density routes.
Rack-ready
Rear rack takes a standard tailbox with no fabrication.
EG1: the long-shift machine
The EG1 runs 110 km at a continuous 65 km/h from a 72V 30Ah pack, tops out at 100 km/h, and carries 180 kg including the rider. A 9 kW mid-drive motor delivers 250 Nm of peak torque, so a loaded cargo box does not change how the bike pulls away.

Range that outlasts the shift
110 km at a continuous 65 km/h, from a 72V 30Ah pack. When it runs down, the pack is swapped in under two minutes rather than charged for hours.
Torque for a loaded bike
250 Nm of peak torque from a 9 kW mid-drive motor. A full cargo box doesn't change how the bike pulls away from lights.
Built for heat
High-temperature-resistant LFP cells, chosen because standard lithium chemistries lose usable capacity in Gulf summer conditions.
Delivery-ready from the crate
The rear seat converts to a cargo box mount. Payload is 180 kg including the rider.
Tracked as standard
Live GPS, battery diagnostics, and anti-theft, reporting into Smart Control.
EG1 vs ADV: which one fits your routes
The EG1 and the ADV differ on range, motor type and payload. The EG1 carries more and runs longer; the ADV is lighter, more agile and adds a reverse gear. Both exchange packs at any Swap Energy station in under two minutes.

Short answer: If riders are covering long distances or carrying full cargo boxes, take the EG1. If they're doing high-frequency drops in traffic, take the ADV. Most fleets over 20 bikes run a mix.

Motorcycle questions
What is the range of the EG1?
110 km at a continuous 65 km/h. Real-world range varies with speed, payload, ambient temperature, and how much stop-start riding the route involves.
How fast is the Swap Energy EG1?
100 km/h top speed, from a 9 kW mid-drive motor producing 250 Nm of peak torque.
How much can the EG1 carry?
180 kg total, including the rider and cargo, enough for a full delivery box on a standard duty cycle.
Can the batteries be swapped on both models?
Yes. The EG1 and the ADV are both swap-ready and exchange packs at any Swap Energy station in under two minutes.
Are these motorcycles road-legal in Dubai?
Yes. The EG1 holds EEC and L1E certification, and both models are specified against UAE road regulations for fleet registration and insurance.
Do the bikes have GPS and fleet tracking?
Yes, as standard. Both models ship with IoT hardware providing live GPS, battery health, remote lock, and fleet monitoring through the Smart Control dashboard.
What is the difference between the EG1 and the ADV?
The EG1 is the higher-performance model: 100 km/h, 110 km of range, 9 kW mid-drive motor, 180 kg payload, built for long shifts and heavy loads. The ADV is lighter and more agile with a 4 kW hub motor, dual 74V 28Ah batteries, 100+ km of range, and a reverse gear, better suited to dense urban delivery.
How much does a Swap Energy electric motorcycle cost?
Pricing is quoted per fleet and depends on volume, duty cycle, and whether you purchase outright or take a Battery-as-a-Service or Fleet-as-a-Service plan. Because the batteries are subscribed rather than purchased, the entry cost is lower than the comparable petrol equivalent. Contact us for current rates.
