eCRP 1.0 TTXGP Exclusive Racer Unveiled

During the 4th European Cleaner Racing Conference held in Birmingham, UK yesterday, Lord Drayson unveiled the eCRP 1.0, the first Italian electric superbike that can be bought by teams who want to be part of TTXGP (the world's first zero carbon, clean emission motorcycle series) for 30.000 euros (£26,725).

The bike is based on 2009's TTXGP-winning Agni X01 and in order to show their support for the TTXGP, CRP say they will not supply bikes to teams wishing to compete in the rival FIM ePower Series.

"CRP is a company with rooted Italian motorsport heritage, spanning generations and across the spectrum of top flight world championships. We welcome their expertise, focus and enthusiasm for TTXGP with a brilliant product like the eCRP1.0," Azhar Hussain, founder of TTXGP, said in a release.

"Given the pedigree of eCRP1.0 and its availability to any team to run in all the TTXGP Championships, 2010 promises to be a thrilling and exciting launch for the next generation of motorsport. Be part of it!" Hussain continued.

There were different statements from the personalities and authorities that took part to the event, who have appreciated the commitment of Italian company CRP Racing. According to its creators, the eCRP 1.0 has a strong racing look, it’s easy to handle thanks to its dimensions and shape and it’s finished in a paint scheme that reminds of the Italian flag.

" It was very important for us to be here and to have attracted the attention of UK decision-makers, represented on this occasion by UK Minister Lord Drayson and this has made me very proud and we really hope this project will be seen as engagement to make the world a better place to live,"
added Livia Cevolini, Sales and Marketing Director of CRP Technology.
