Vintage Electric New Special Edition EV Throttle Bikes – World-class vintage Land Rover restorer Himalaya 4×4 (www.drivehimalya.com) is proud to announce a partnership with Vintage Electric (www.vintageelectric.com) introducing a limited edition line of powerful throttle e-bikes inspired by Land Rover’s Series trucks. Based on Himalaya’s incredible custom Land Rover restorations, the new Himalaya 4×4 Special Edition Vintage Electric bikes are now available to order as accessories for each commission with dual sport features alongside matching paint and other touches that sync with each Himalaya 4×4 design.
“When Himalaya 4×4 initially explored a Vintage Electric partnership, our first thought was creating a special line of bikes based on the Series Rovers,” comments Himalaya 4×4 CEO Greg Shondel. “The Series trucks are celebrated as the original Land Rovers that started it all for the brand, and the rigs feature a markedly different design than the Defenders that came later. Each Series truck features a classic design that runs in beautiful parallel with what Vintage Electric captures in their own bike designs. Now, when our clients commission a Series build, they can add in a special edition e-bike from Vintage Electric that can be racked and accessible in the back of our trucks.”
Known for producing the most powerful throttle bikes in North America, the special edition Himalaya 4×4 Special Edition Vintage Electric bike features a powerful 72-volt electric power plant from the company’s new Performance Line. Engineered with fast, flowing framework lines in the grand stylings of classic board track racers, each custom Vintage Electric bike is made for zipping up hill climbs and mountain roads with three times the torque of past models with a 4,000-watt drive train and a remarkable 40 mph top speed.
“At Vintage Electric, it’s no secret that we draw a lot of inspiration from classic automotive designs that are precious to us,” says Vintage Electric Founder Andrew Davidge. “The Series trucks from Land Rover really encapsulates an era of transportation that we pull so much inspiration from. Himalaya 4×4 is about helping their clients go wherever their journey takes them, and now, Vintage Electric can be part of those adventures by providing a powerful electric bike for tackling dirt roads and beaches to keep the adventure going.”
Perfect for riding blacktop, beach, or gravel trails, the Dual-Sport action Himalaya 4×4 Special Edition Vintage Electric throttle bike features a hydroformed aluminum frame custom painted to perfectly match each Series truck’s exterior. Other custom touches abound such as dual density saddle and grips swathed in the very same interior material as each one-of-a-kind Himalaya 4×4 Series build. Each custom Himalaya 4×4 Special Edition Vintage Electric bike also features exclusive Himalaya Series badging as well as a Saris 2 bike rack engineered to easily store and transport the two-wheel accessory.
Sitting on durable Maxxis tires, the Himalaya 4×4 Special Edition Vintage Electric bike features on demand acceleration with the flick of the thumb throttle. Five power modes are available for riders alongside the Scrambler’s powerful regenerative hydraulic disc brakes that provide amazing stopping power while simultaneously returning juice to the battery. Vintage Electric engineered each battery pack to have a lightning-fast recharge time of only 3-hours with an industry leading range of up to 75 miles per charge.
Himalaya 4×4’s first Series build incorporating the custom Vintage Electric bike is a beautiful Series IIA that features a powerful 300-horsepower GM V6 engine paired alongside a 6L80-E transmission. The elegant powder blue custom truck rests on a coil-sprung chassis and features a bespoke modern Fox suspension underneath that guarantees drivers can tackle anything in front of them.
This Himalaya 4×4 Series IIA features a custom roof and roof rack that allows for quick and easy travel with large cargo. The result is a more nimble rig made for enjoying city streets, beaches, and tropical vistas. Himalaya 4×4 spent hundreds of hours restoring the Series IIA truck interior, which is outfitted in durable, high grade chestnut leather. Himalaya 4×4 also integrated a top-of-the-line Alpine sound system with Bluetooth connectivity for further enjoyment behind the wheel.
