2012 Giantco e-Dolphin I Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown

Built around Giantco's scooter motorcycle platform, the 2012 Giantco e-Dolphin I features a purpose-built air-cooled electric configuration. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 2.7 HP (2 kW) while maximum torque reaches 16 Nm (11.8 lb-ft), transferring power to the rear wheel through a automatic gearbox and belt final drive.

On the scales, the e-Dolphin I measures 108 kg (238 lbs) wet (curb). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 780 mm (30.7 in) seat height — offering a neutral standover height that accommodates most average-inseam riders without sacrificing cornering clearance, combined with a 1,440 mm (56.7 in) wheelbase engineered for balanced agility and highway composure.
