Market / E-Performance: The German bicycle manufacturer Diamant has won this year's iF Design Award. The Hartmannsdorf-based company was able to convince the 63-strong international expert jury with the e-commuter Diamant Zouma Elite+ S. The iF Design Award is presented once a year.
iF International Forum Design GmbH from Hanover is behind the world-renowned design label iF Design Award. For more than 60 years, the world's oldest design institution has been awarding prizes to products that are characterized by excellent design. This year, the German bicycle manufacturer Diamant from Hartmannsdorf can look forward to the special honor. With the e-commuter Diamant Zouma Elite+ S, the 63-strong jury was impressed not only by the elegant design, but also by the idea of clean and healthy mobility. The S-Pedelec scored with the solution to prevent air pollution and the production of fine dust. At the same time, driving pleasure and the reduction of stress were rated positively.
The Diamant Zouma Elite+ S has a Bosch Performance Speed center motor with a torque of 60 Newton meters. Thanks to pedal assistance up to 45 km/h, the e-commuter is a serious alternative to a car or scooter. The 36 volt / 500 Wh lithium-ion battery is designed for long distances, which means that the Zouma Elite+ S guarantees a high level of flexibility in everyday urban life. Of course, the equipment complies with the strict regulations of the StVZO. The lighting offers 1.600 lumens - brake lights and automotive high beams are just as much part of the standard package as a day sensor. The speed pedelec is available at a price of 5.199,00 euros. A moped test certificate or a driving license is required to drive the vehicle on public roads. The Diamant Zouma Elite+ S is also subject to compulsory insurance.
