DESIGN NAME: Greenger G3
PRIMARY FUNCTION: Electric Dirtbike
INSPIRATION: Drawing inspiration from the nimble hummingbird, the biomimetic design of the G3 captures the essence of its flight, which is light, stable, and quiet. Furthermore, by seamlessly integrating sleek and straight lines into its body design, the G3 emanates a palpable sense of power and speed, while also showcasing a simple yet vibrant style that aptly caters to the aesthetic preferences of the Gen Z cohort.
UNIQUE PROPERTIES / PROJECT DESCRIPTION: Greenger G3, an electric motorbike crafted especially for beginners, provides teenagers with the chance to cruise through the city and explore off road. It boats a biomimetic design inspired by the hummingbird, and offers three adjustable speed modes. And its electric power system works alongside an easily detachable lithium battery, ensuring minimal noise and a high energy utilization rate of up to 95 per cent. These features make Greenger G3 a practical, handy, and green substitute for riding.
OPERATION / FLOW / INTERACTION: Users can monitor the condition of their G3s in real time through the dedicated app. Better still, the smart app offers a GPS trip history recording feature, creating an exciting experience akin to checking off popular attractions on a travel itinerary. This serves as a strong motivation for riders to venture into new scenarios where they may stumble upon unexpected delights. Moreover, users can remotely start their G3s via the app, making each ride more intelligent, convenient, and efficient.
PROJECT DURATION AND LOCATION: The design and development of the G3 was carried out by Greenger in Los Angeles, USA, commencing in February 2022 and concluding a year later. The G3 made its debut in July 2023, also in Los Angeles.

PRODUCTION / REALIZATION TECHNOLOGY: The G3 features a lightweight aluminium alloy frame that has undergone sandblasting and electroplating processes, resulting in a refined texture and enhanced resistance to both abrasion and corrosion. Even better, its main electrical components hit up to an IP67 rating, effectively shielding against rain, sand, and dust. With these features, the G3 can conquer various terrains, be it urban roads or off road trails, guaranteeing a consistently smooth and stable ride in all weather conditions.

RESEARCH ABSTRACT: Through extensive research on the current electric motorcycles targeting teenagers, the design team has identified a pressing need to enhance user friendliness. One key issue is the triangle design among the seating position, handlebars, and footrests, which often causes discomfort and inconvenience due to inadequate conformity with the anatomy and riding preferences of teenagers. Another common complaint lies in the lengthy charging duration, which may potentially disrupt travel plans.
CHALLENGE: The G3 prioritizes enhancing the joy of city cruising and off road adventures for teenagers. Its seating position, handlebars, and footrests are ergonomically arranged for optimum comfort. It also boats multiple functional upgrades, including three adjustable speed modes, a 200mm ground clearance height, an electric power system with minimal noise, and an easily detachable lithium battery. The G3 is fully equipped for simple and convenient operation, while ensuring comfort on any terrain.
