Drive Thousands of Kilometers Without Waiting for Charging
Selex Motors is not just a brand, but also an ecosystem of electric vehicles that aims to revolutionize the future of smart and sustainable transportation. Founded in 2018 by Vietnamese entrepreneurs Nguyen Huu Phuoc Nguyen, Nguyen Trong Hai, and Nguyen Dinh Quang, Selex Motors officially launched its first commercial product named Camel in November 2022. In August 2023, they introduced the new Selex Camel 2 model and announced a solution for refrigerated cargo transport using electric motorcycles, which is compatible with both the Selex Camel 1 and Camel 2.
What Makes the Selex Camel 2 Stand Out?
Flexible Design, Optimized for Cargo and Personal Use
The Selex Camel 2 is designed to be versatile for transportation and personal use. Compared to previous electric motorcycle models, this new design is shorter with a wheelbase of 1375 mm, making it convenient for maneuvering in tight spaces and narrow alleyways. The ground clearance has also been increased to 150mm, allowing the bike to easily navigate uneven roads.
The tail and seat of the bike are compact yet stylishly designed, and can be easily disassembled, enabling users to install small to medium-sized cargo boxes.
Powerful Performance, Exceptional Load Capacity
With a maximum power output of 4000W and torque of up to 140Nm, which is over 40% higher than the previous model, the Selex Camel 2 is a robust electric motorcycle that can reach a top speed of 80km/h and has outstanding climbing capabilities.
The bike is equipped with up to 3 standard interchangeable battery packs from Selex, providing a maximum range of 150km when equipped with all 3 packs.
Both the Selex Camel and Selex Camel 2 have exceptional load capacities, capable of carrying up to 225 kg, a feat that few other two-wheeled electric vehicles can achieve.
Emphasis on Comfort and Safety
The Selex Motors research team has prioritized optimizing the ergonomics of their new model to ensure a comfortable and fatigue-free experience for both the rider and passenger, even on long journeys.
In addition to convenience, intelligence, and cost-efficiency, safety is a paramount concern for Selex Motors. They are the only electric vehicle manufacturer in Vietnam that has been certified by LG Chem and Samsung SDI for the safety of their batteries. Selex Motors also holds certifications from the Ministry of Transport for their battery design.
Cost Savings
According to the company’s claims, the optimization and innovation of products within Selex Motors’ smart electric vehicle ecosystem can save customers up to 35% on monthly fuel costs, 50% on maintenance costs, and 99% on refueling time.
Breaking the Notion of “Maximum Range”
Selex Camel has broken the concept of the “maximum range” of electric motorcycles with its new generation battery swapping stations. Instead of waiting for 3 to 8 hours to charge, the Selex Camel can have its battery fully charged in less than 2 minutes, allowing it to continue the journey.
Currently, Selex Motors has developed a total of 70 battery swapping stations in three major cities: Hanoi, Ho Chi Minh City, and Hue. This number is expected to continue growing.
According to CEO Nguyen Huu Phuoc Nguyen, Selex Motors initially targets customers in the logistics industry, making the battery swapping station model a perfect fit.
“Users only need less than 2 minutes to swap batteries at our automated battery ATMs. In addition, features like checking battery station locations, the charging status of the battery, usage history, and even remote bike locking can all be accessed via our mobile app. It’s extremely convenient and familiar to tech-savvy drivers,” CEO Nguyen said in an interview with Business Today.
In an interview with Vietnamnet, CEO Nguyen Huu Phuoc Nguyen shared Selex Motors’ vision. “While currently focusing on electric motorcycles, the future of Selex Motors could include electric cars and buses. We aspire to become a leading technology corporation, providing sustainable transportation ecosystems not only in Vietnam but also in the region.”
