Selex Camel 1: Durable electric motorbike, IP67 waterproof

Selex Camel 1 is an electric motorbike model aimed at the need for durable urban mobility, especially in rainy and flooded conditions. According to the manufacturer, the vehicle meets IP67 water resistance standards and can operate normally when submerged 1 meter for 30 minutes. Combining a 1,500 W in-hub motor (maximum 3,000 W), 100 Nm torque, 225 kg load and a removable lithium battery pack of up to 3 batteries for a distance of up to 150 km, Camel 1 aims to serve shippers, motorbike taxi drivers and ordinary users with an input cost of 27.8 million VND (excluding battery, battery rental from 135,000 VND/month).

IP67 water resistance: the core value of Camel 1

The biggest highlight is its water resistance. According to the announcement, Camel 1 is IP67 and can be submerged in 1 meter of water for 30 minutes and still operate. Compared to most popular electric motorbikes that are only water resistant to about 0.3-0.5 meters for 30 minutes, this is a parameter that makes a significant difference when riding in the rain or wading through urban floods.

The size and sitting position also serve to facilitate flexible maneuvering: the 750 mm saddle height is suitable for most body types, the 130 mm ground clearance helps to limit undercarriage scraping when climbing curbs and speed bumps.

Functional design thinking, suitable for urban areas

Compact design, youthful lines mixed with a bit of classic with headlights and round mirrors. The footrest is flat and wide, convenient for people wearing skirts or high heels. The difference is that the rear seat can be extended, creating a flat surface for easy installation of a cargo box or adding a passenger cushion.

Selex provides an ecosystem of accessories including dry goods boxes, freezer boxes, counter shelves, rain umbrellas, etc. to help "configure" the vehicle according to the right work purpose. The vehicle has 6 color options for users to choose from.

Experience digital controls and convenience

The all-LED lighting system provides better lighting efficiency and durability than traditional bulbs. The digital instrument cluster can connect to smartphones, supporting operational information monitoring. The integrated USB charging port helps charge your phone on the go.

Under the seat is an 11-liter trunk, enough to hold a small helmet, raincoat or personal items. With the special feature of carrying goods, this detail is useful in neatly arranging belongings.

Power and operation: in-hub 1,500 W, load 225 kg

The heart of the Camel 1 is an in-hub electric motor with a nominal power of 1,500 W, reaching a maximum of 3,000 W, for a maximum torque of 100 Nm. According to published specifications, the vehicle accelerates from 0-40 km/h in 7.5 seconds and reaches a maximum speed of 70 km/h. The maximum load of 225 kg allows for cargo or additional passengers while still ensuring mobility.

The vehicle has a reverse mode, supporting turning and pushing the vehicle in tight parking lots. The 12-inch alloy wheels combined with 90/90-12 44J tires in the front and 120/70-12 58P tires in the rear provide grip and stability suitable for urban environments. The front telescopic shock absorber system and the rear double springs aim for smoothness when carrying heavy loads. Hydraulic disc brakes both front and rear ensure stable braking force.

Power and range: 3 removable batteries, flexible battery exchange

Camel 1 uses a removable lithium battery, supporting up to 3 batteries. When all 3 batteries are installed, the maximum operating range is announced to be 150 km. The removable battery configuration allows charging at home or changing batteries at stations deployed by Selex, helping to maintain continuous travel depending on work needs.

Safety and technology: LED, disc brakes, practicality first

The safety package focuses on core components: full-vehicle LED, front/rear hydraulic disc brakes, large tires according to urban vehicle standards. IP67 water resistance and 130 mm ground clearance support driving in the rain and wading in water according to the manufacturer's recommendations.

Battery sales, rental and user location

Camel 1 is priced at 27.8 million VND (including VAT and charger), excluding battery. Selex currently applies battery rental with a cost from 135,000 VND/month, and also supports the battery exchange system. The separation of battery costs helps reduce input costs, suitable for service customers who need to optimize operating costs, but ordinary buyers can also consider it because of the flexibility when charging/exchanging batteries.
