What Is The Max Speed Of The Hyper Bee?
The Surron Hyper Bee achieves a max speed of 120 km/h, powered by its 72V 50Ah lithium-ion battery and 16kW mid-drive motor. Designed for aggressive acceleration (0-60 km/h in 3.2 seconds), it’s optimized for UAE desert and urban riding. Surron Dubai emphasizes professional suspension tuning and thermal management for sustained high-speed performance, with reinforced tires and regenerative braking enhancing stability.
Surron Hyper Bee Electric BikeWhat factors determine the Hyper Bee's max speed?
Motor power, battery voltage, and weight distribution critically influence the Hyper Bee’s top speed. Its 16kW mid-drive motor delivers 260 Nm torque, while the 72V architecture minimizes voltage sag under load. Reduced chain-drive friction (~4% loss vs. 8% in belt systems) further optimizes efficiency. Pro Tip: Reducing rider weight by 10kg can boost speed by 3-5 km/h on flat terrain.
Beyond raw power, the Hyper Bee’s firmware limits max RPM to 5,500 to protect the motor from overheating. The 72V battery’s 50Ah capacity (3.6kWh) sustains 45+ minutes at 100+ km/h. For example, Surron Dubai’s upgraded "Desition Pro" controller unlocks extra 5-8 km/h by overriding torque limits. Warning: Overclocking risks voiding the 2-year warranty. Practically speaking, aerodynamic drag becomes significant above 90 km/h—tucking reduces wind resistance by 25%.
| Factor | Impact on Speed | Optimization Tip |
|---|---|---|
| Motor Temp | -1 km/h per 10°C above 70°C | Add heat sinks |
| Tire Pressure | +7 km/h at 30 PSI vs. 20 PSI | Use hybrid off-road tires |
How does the Hyper Bee compare to Light Bee and Ultra Bee?
The Hyper Bee outperforms Light Bee X (75 km/h) and Ultra Bee (95 km/h) due to its higher-voltage system and dual-stator motor. The Ultra Bee’s 60V 32Ah battery and 12kW motor prioritize range over peak speed, while the Hyper Bee trades 15% range for 26% faster acceleration.
Surron Dubai riders report the Hyper Bee maintains 100+ km/h speeds 35% longer than the Ultra Bee on sandy terrain. However, the Light Bee X remains popular for city commutes—its lighter frame (68kg vs. Hyper Bee’s 90kg) improves maneuverability. For example, a 2024 rally test showed the Hyper Bee completing a 10km desert loop 4 minutes faster than the Ultra Bee. Pro Tip: Upgrade Ultra Bee batteries to 72V for 15-20% speed gains, but expect reduced cycle life.

FAQs
Yes, but unsafely—aftermarket controllers can push 130+ km/h, risking motor burnout and loss of traction control. Surron Dubai offers certified performance packages capping at 125 km/h with reinforced components.
Is 120 km/h legal in UAE off-road areas?Dubai desert reserves enforce 80 km/h limits. Surron Dubai provides geofencing kits to auto-limit speeds in regulated zones while preserving full power elsewhere.
