Ducati unveiled two 'Scrambler Ducati SCR' bikes under its electric bicycle sub-brand Scrambler. These bikes are the SCR-X and SCR-E GT. Both bikes feature similar specifications and mostly differ in terms of the frame layout, weight, and design.
The SCR-X has a rear storage rack that can carry payloads of up to 25kg, while the SCR-E GT does not contain this additional storage. On top of this, the SCR-X has a step-through design, while the SCR-E GT has a step over design.
The bikes feature a 60Nm motor powered by a 499Wh removable, and therefore swappable, battery. Both bikes have grippy fat tires that make them suitable for on and off-road conditions. The bikes also contain front and rear-faceing LEDs, as well as varying levels of pedal assistance.
