SURRON UK UNVEILS THE LATEST LIGHT BEE X
Posted on
Surron UK is excited to introduce the latest evolution of its bestselling electric off-road motorcycle: the Light Bee X. Now available from official Surron UK dealers, the upgraded Light Bee X (LBX) brings more power, refined agility, and enhanced suspension for the ultimate riding experience.
MORE POWER. MORE PERFORMANCE.
The 2025 Light Bee X boasts a significant power boost, with its newly developed 8kW high-performance mid-mounted motor delivering a 33% increase over its predecessor. Acceleration has been enhanced by 32.5%, launching riders from 0-50 km/h in just 2.7 seconds. With a peak torque of 266Nm at the rear wheel—an increase of 16Nm—and a top speed of 46mph, the lightweight LBX is ready to push the limits.
At the heart of this upgrade is the high-performance mid-motor. With over eight years of real-world testing and refinement since the LBX was first introduced, the new Light Bee X’s power system ensures stability, reliability, and peak performance in all riding scenarios. The maximum motor speed exceeds 5500rpm and can maintain peak power output from 1500rpm to 5000rpm.
MORE AGILE. MORE CONTROL.
Designed for superior handling, the new Light Bee X features a reengineered 6000-ton pressure-forged aluminium alloy frame. Weighing just 57kg, it remains the lightest electric off-road motorcycle in its class, delivering unmatched maneuverability and control. Add that to an adjustable throttle curve and two riding modes—Sport and Eco—and the new LBX reveals a new meaning to rider control.
The new Light Bee X boasts significantly improved ride control thanks to its newly tuned competition-grade suspension system. Featuring upgraded and stronger front forks with 200mm of travel along with adjustable rebound damping and spring preload, and an adjustable air pressure assist function of 80-120psi to further improve the load capacity, which can be adjusted to different usage scenarios. The multi-link rear suspension system, complete with a fully adjustable 267mm cylinder rear shock absorber and a high-strength 450lbs alloy spring, ensures maximum traction and comfort.
The new 19” front and 18” rear off-road wheelset further improves grip and responsiveness. Compared with the previous generation, the rear rim is changed to 18 inches while the outer tyre diameter remains the same, resulting in a larger tyre width and thicker wall, increasing comfort, improving off-road performance and offering more tyre choice for users.
he enhanced braking system—featuring integrated opposed four piston fixed calipers—provides improved strength and powerful stopping power with just one finger.
MORE RANGE. MORE FREEDOM.
Equipped with a cutting-edge 60V 40Ah high-performance lithium-ion battery pack, the Light Bee X achieves a maximum range of up to 46 miles* (75km) at 25 mph (45 km/h). The lightweight battery, weighing just 11.6kg, can be easily removed in just 10 seconds and recharged, providing ultimate convenience for riders on the go.
Built for durability and safety, the battery system includes an automotive-grade Battery Management System (BMS) with real-time monitoring and IP67-rated protection, ensuring resilience against extreme conditions. With rapid charging from 20% to 80% in just two hours, the Light Bee X keeps riders on the move without long wait times.
The 2025 Surron Light Bee X stays true to its signature design and sporty lines, now available in four colour options: Phantom Purple, Lapis Blue, Carbon Black, and the all-new Sage Green.
