Selex Camel 2: 1m water resistance, 150km range per charge

In the context of Vietnam's urban areas often experiencing heavy rain and high tides, water resistance becomes an important criterion when choosing an electric motorbike. Selex Camel 2 focuses on solving this problem: according to the manufacturer, the vehicle meets IP67 standards with the ability to withstand 1 meter of water for 30 minutes and still operate normally. In addition, there is a 2,000 W engine configuration (4,000 W maximum), 150 kg load, and a battery exchange ecosystem - aimed at service users who need durable and flexible vehicles.

IP67 water resistance: a clear advantage in urban flooding conditions

The IP67 standard allows the device to be water-resistant at a maximum depth of 1 m for 30 minutes. On the market, many electric motorbike models meet IP67 but often announce the level of water resistance of 0.3-0.5 m for 30 minutes. According to information from Selex, Camel 2 reaches the level of "1 m water, 30 minutes still works normally", which stands out from the common practice.

This water resistance is suitable for users in areas that are often flooded due to rain or high tides. However, the manufacturer does not recommend frequent travel in flooded conditions; after each wading, users should check the vehicle to ensure operational quality over time.

Compact design, optimized mobility and loading

Selex Camel 2 is designed to serve the needs of transporting goods and people. Overall dimensions of 1,930 x 770 x 1,260 mm, wheelbase of 1,370 mm, ground clearance of 150 mm and seat height of 770 mm help the vehicle to be suitable for most users and easy to maneuver in the city.

The suspension system includes front shock absorbers with tubes and rear spring shock absorbers, balancing between comfort and load. Disc brakes on both wheels support safe stopping when carrying heavy loads. The vehicle uses 12-inch alloy wheels with 90/90-12 54J tires front/rear, increasing stability at urban speeds.

Convenience: flat floor, flexible saddle, smart connectivity

The saddle is thick and comfortable. The rear seat can be removed, allowing for quick conversion between passenger and cargo. The flat and wide footrest supports bulky items when needed. In addition to the front basket, Selex provides accessories suitable for many types of goods for users to refer to.

LED lighting system, fully digital clock cluster with smartphone connection, integrated GPS positioning - useful for technology drivers in tracking routes and managing vehicles.

Performance and battery: strong pulling force, flexible battery change

The in-hub motor has a nominal power of 2,000 W, reaching a maximum of 4,000 W, maximum torque of 140 Nm, for a load capacity of 150 kg. The maximum speed as announced is 80 km/h. The vehicle can climb slopes up to 14 degrees, meeting situations such as underground parking ramps or overpasses in the city. The reverse feature makes it easier to maneuver in tight parking lots.

In terms of energy, Camel 2 supports a set of three lithium batteries. When all three batteries are installed, the maximum announced distance is 150 km per charge. Users can charge at home or change batteries at the station; Selex's battery swapping station system is present in many provinces/cities, suitable for the high exploitation intensity of shippers and technology drivers.

Safety and assistive technology

Front/rear disc brakes and 12-inch 90/90 tires give Camel 2 more confidence when braking at high speeds in the city. Front tube suspension and rear springs optimize smoothness when carrying heavy loads. The vehicle does not mention advanced driver assistance systems such as ABS or ADAS features; in return, smartphone connectivity and GPS navigation are practical equipment for daily operation needs.

Price and positioning: focus on service users

Selex Camel 2 is priced at VND 28.6 million (including VAT and charger). The vehicle is sold without a battery; the company offers battery rental packages, with various packages from VND 105,000/month depending on the need for 1-3 batteries. When equipped with 3 batteries, the vehicle can reach a maximum range of 150 km per charge as announced. The “buy car – rent battery” approach helps optimize initial costs and exploit energy availability through a network of battery swapping stations.
