In 2025, the electric bicycle (E-Bike) market will soon welcome a major player - the Brose Drive³ Peak. The long-awaited E-Bike mid-mounted motor has entered the mass production stage. After several years of technical improvement and testing, the Brose Drive³ Peak will bring a new power experience for high-performance E-Bikes.
Technical Innovation: Higher Torque at 48 Volt of Voltage System
The Drive³ Peak has a higher power output compared to the previous model, the Drive S Mag. It delivers a maximum torque of 95 Nm and a peak power of 600 watts, compared to the Drive S Mag's 90 Nm and 530 watts of power.
This performance improvement is primarily due to Brose's use of a new 48-volt voltage system, replacing the previous 36-volt technology. These changes not only bring more power, but also make the motor smaller, reducing its size by about 15%. Although the weight remains at 2.9 kg, it is certainly a worthwhile compromise for E-Bike users looking for high performance.
There is no hope for belt technology, but the “Brose feel” is not lost
A further notable change is the abandonment of belt drive technology in the Drive³ Peak, which means a significant design tweak. Despite this, Brose ensured that the new motor still retains the driving feel they are proud of, thanks to their careful tuning of the motor's characteristics.
Take on the Competitors and Rise to the Top of the Market
With the launch of the Drive³ Peak, Brose is once again at the forefront of high-performance E-MTB (electric mountain bike) powertrains. Although there are strong competitors in the market such as ZF's CentriX, it is expected that the Drive³ Peak will be the main choice for cyclists looking for maximum power due to its superior technology and stable performance. In 2025, this top product will surely bring a new wave of E-Bike power revolution, so let's wait and see.
