This project, born in motorsport, is part of the strategic plan launched in 2019 by DELLORTO to develop solutions for two-wheel electric mobility.
Thanks to DELLORTO, the MotoE™ class has been equipped, from its beginning, with an acquisition system able to transmit real-time information to Race Direction and TV Production.
With a view to a long-term partnership, DELLORTO supported the MotoE™ project in the transition to the new manufacturer Ducati, thus ensuring uniformity in the data analysis system for the teams.
With the switch to Ducati, the rear brake pressure sensor takes on a key role, because the bike doesn’t have the rear brake and the sensor signal is used to command electric braking.
This season, the Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) was upgraded at the Assen GP, improving its performance and introducing new functions useful to the manufacturer, teams and organisers, with an automated system that simplifies technical checks.
The MotoE™ class was the first class in the World Championship to be equipped with a unified TPMS system specially developed by DELLORTO, setting the course for the solutions later adopted in MotoGP™.
Using the racing experience, DELLORTO has in parallel developed electric propulsion and rechargeable removable battery solutions that went into production in 2022 and equip some of the electric scooters in the MotoGP™ paddock, because the environmental sustainability of the Championship is not only about the motorcycles racing on the track.
As part of a 360-degree approach to the issue of environmental sustainability, DELLORTO, as the exclusive ECU supplier for Moto3™, has supported the transition to 40% fossil-free fuels that have been introduced as of this season, taking advantage of the experience gained in production fuel injection systems that are already set up to run on up to 30% renewable fuels. This development lays the groundwork for the future transition in 2027 to 100% fossil free fuels in all MotoGP™ classes, with the hope that the competitions will chart a virtuous course for the transition to carbon neutral fuels worldwide.
MotoE™ and Moto3™ classes serve as testing grounds where DELLORTO develops solutions for the mobility of the future with a technology-neutral approach in which electric and combustion propulsion complement each other to meet various usage profiles and market contexts.
