MOTO TRIAL EM ESCAPE R 2026

The 2026 Escape R: Adventure and Extreme Performance

The 2026 Escape R is presented as the most powerful motorcycle ever built by EM for the adventure and freeride segment. It benefits from the all-new "Made in EM" powertrain for enhanced performance, as well as a new high-capacity battery for maximum range.

Key Innovations

New Made in EM Motor:

Max Power: Up to 18kW.

Max Torque at the Wheel: 740Nm.

Engine Speed: Up to 14,000rpm.

Power-to-Weight Ratio: Unmatched at 3.3kW/kg.

Inertia: The 40% increase in inertia improves responsiveness and power, which is particularly beneficial for trail riding, combining agility and top-end performance.

New High-Capacity Battery:

Capacity: 3500Wh.
It offers the longest range in the EM range, with an excellent weight-to-range ratio.

New Clutch:

Equipped with a hydraulically actuated diaphragm clutch, designed for competition, it allows for perfect control and the ability to overcome difficult obstacles.

New Swingarm:

Identical to the other new 2026 models, it is 300 grams lighter, more robust, and improves traction. It incorporates a new adjustment system and a new, lighter, forged kickstand.

TFT Display:

A next-generation display that offers premium user comfort by showing important information such as RPM, speed, remaining range, map selection, and TKO activation.

EM Technologies

FRB (Fixed Regenerative Brake):

Recovers energy during braking.

Makes braking safer, more controlled, and more precise in extreme conditions.

A "PRB R" (progressive regenerative braking, optional) for even greater ergonomics.

TKO (Engine Speed ​​Control):

An innovation that provides ideal feel by maintaining a constant engine speed to improve acceleration precision and low-end traction.
Activates or deactivates via the EM Connect app.

Anti-Reverse:

A system that locks the rear wheel for added safety in extreme conditions (e.g., uphill).

It is activated by touching the regenerative braking lever (FRB or PRB R) and deactivated by accelerating again.

EM Connect:

A mobile app (iOS & Android) that allows for personalized motorcycle settings (power, responsiveness, TKO, etc.).

It is also used to monitor the motorcycle's status and communicate with EM and dealers.

Explanation of Standard Equipment

Clutch: 3-disc clutch. New hydraulically controlled diaphragm system, optimized for competition, offering increased precision and responsiveness to handle the power and torque of the new motor.

FRB (Fixed Regenerative Brake): This is the Fixed Regenerative Motor Brake. This system recovers energy during deceleration and descents to recharge the battery. The engine braking effect is constant, simulating the effect of a combustion engine decelerating and offering improved control, especially downhill.
TKO (Tick Over): TKO simulates the effect of a constant engine speed at low RPM, similar to idling on a combustion engine motorcycle. Low-Range Power Control: This provides power control assistance, allowing the motorcycle to gain precision in acceleration and traction. Ideal Feel: It is designed to offer ideal feel for riders of all levels (beginners to experienced), facilitating motorcycle management in technical areas where smooth power delivery is crucial.
Charger Box: This is the charging unit supplied with the motorcycle. In the case of the Epure FACTOR-e, it is a new system that has been redesigned to improve performance, finish, and durability, and includes the new charging connector.

TFT Display: A Thin-Film Transistor Display. This high-resolution color screen serves as the instrument panel. It displays essential information such as battery level, selected riding mode, speed, and potentially diagnostics.
Anti-Reverse: An essential feature in trials riding. The Anti-Reverse (or Anti-rollback) function prevents the motorcycle from rolling backward when stopped on an incline or step, even if the rider releases the brakes. It ensures crucial safety and precision when navigating obstacles.

WARRANTY: 2 years parts and labor, or 1000 cycles for the battery.
