The Stockholm-based electric motorbike manufacturer CAKE has just unveiled its new Jante motor that is designed for light electric motorcycles.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

It\u2019s been a big week for Swedish electric vehicle companies. With everything from electric boat news<\/a>, fancy electric bikes<\/a>, electric microcars<\/a>, and even flying electric surfboards<\/a>, now we\u2019re seeing a new electric motor designed for e-motorcycles. These Scandinavians sure aren\u2019t taking any breaks.<\/p>\n

CAKE\u2019s new Jante motor is an internal permanent magnet (IPM) motor whose design focused primarily on efficiency, power, and reliability in a relatively small package.<\/p>\n

The lightweight construction uses an aircraft-grade aluminum housing designed to optimize the performance of the light motor. That \u201cless is more\u201d attitude aligns well with CAKE\u2019s minimalist frame designs.<\/p>\n

The drivetrain was developed to operate on both low and high voltage with the ability to hit speeds of over 100 km\/h (62 mph) and torque outputs of 500 Nm at the rear wheel. That aligns well with the target for CAKE\u2019s flagship motorbikes, which blur the line between urban commuters<\/a> and off-road dirt bikes<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Will it challenge an electric Harley<\/a>? Probably not. But it\u2019s designed to be light and efficient, which is the underlying design ethos of CAKE.<\/p>\n

According to the company, the Jante motor\u2019s design makes it CAKE\u2019s most optimized IPM motor. The Jante features \u201cradial flux for efficiency and power, low cogging that allows smooth acceleration and precision handling at low speeds, and its air-cooled system allows high torque at high RPM.\u201d <\/p>\n

As CAKE CEO and cofounder Stefan Ytterborn explained:<\/p>\n

\n

We are very excited to introduce our new high performance Jante Drivetrain. The Jante represents a significant advancement in CAKE\u2019s electric motor design, providing our customers with a superior product that meets their needs for performance, efficiency, and reliability.<\/p>\n

The biggest reason for our in-house developed motor is to take major steps forward, increasing performance for the category of lightweight electric motorcycles. At the heart of our vehicles everything is based on CAKE components that together deliver performance to the next level. We are happy to see our drivetrain technology being used in a number of bold projects. CAKE battery controller algorithms and more are already in other builds, and the new Jante is a significant addition to our drivetrain technology.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

The motor\u2019s name comes from the Law of Jante, or Jantelagen<\/em> in Swedish. It\u2019s a type of social norm that is common in Nordic countries, especially Sweden, which presents as a form of extreme modesty regarding accomplishments. <\/p>\n

These norms emphasize humility and the idea that no individual is more important than the collective group. <\/p>\n

It\u2019s why you\u2019ll rarely hear Swedes bragging about themselves or their accomplishments, instead preferring to let their actions speak for themselves. <\/p>\n

It\u2019s also why if your job is to interview Swedes about their accomplishments, you might find that you have your work cut out for you.<\/p>\n

But with all of the electric innovation coming out of Sweden lately, from the seas<\/a> to the roads<\/a> to the trails<\/a>, it\u2019s hard to imagine that the country\u2019s engineers don\u2019t have a significant amount to be proud of.<\/p>\n
