In February, one of the few fairs, the Swiss Moto took place. Also this year we were represented with some vehicles. The eye-catcher was the customized bike from Ali Shabani. Ali designed and built a stylish bike from a DXS 2ndLife, which caught all eyes and sold as a limited edition. In addition to the customized bike, the eRod Fun, eRod Offroad, and a DXCargo were on display. Another DXS 2ndLife graced the entrance hall of the show. It had previously been in use as an emergency vehicle at the Solothurn Film Festival. Some exciting contacts resulted from the show as well as two sales.

For certain customers, such as the Swiss Post, KYBURZ is responsible for the maintenance of the vehicle fleet.

Most work on the vehicles is carried out by our service partners. Our customers can also have warranty work on our vehicles carried out by our certified partners. In order for us to have an overview of what has been repaired on each vehicle, the partners have to record everything that is done on the vehicle in our system.
The partners have to have us approve major work in advance - this also happens via this system.

The system in which partners entered service case information via the Internet was outdated, so we developed the «KYBURZ WebDesk».
In the new«KYBURZ WebDesk», the partner can easily record the work that needs to be done on a vehicle.
He can see directly in the system whether he can do the work or whether something needs to be checked first.
In the WebDesk, you can view the service history, the owner and also the open and completed retrofits for each vehicle.
In addition, all important documents such as instructions, service videos, service folders etc. can be accessed in the WebDesk.

After an extended testing period with a few selected partners, we were able to release the new «KYBURZ WebDesk» for our service partners in Switzerland in June 2020. From 31.12.2020, the old system for registering work will be completely switched off and then all partners.

Good to know:
The «KYBURZ WebDesk» is optimised for use on an iPad. With the iPad, the service mechanic can directly register the necessary work on the vehicle.
He can use the iPad's camera to add pictures of any damage to his report or even scan items and vehicle numbers instead of typing them in.

One of the highlights this year was our successful racers, Jenny and Flo. They competed in the Drytech slalom race in Röthis (AT) on 25 July with two eRods.
The eRod was convincing at the race. We didn't have a single failure and the battery lasted until the end. Meanwhile, many of the cars with combustion engines repeatedly struggled with overheating and other problems.

Jenny and Flo drove excellent times, and in the end, Flo took 1st place in our category. We were particularly pleased that they were a lot faster than the Teslas in the group, which have around 400 hp more under the bonnet.

The race in Röthis was part of the Drytech Race Cup. This cup consists of several races that take place throughout the year at different locations in Austria. Next year, Jenny and Flo will compete in these races as an official eRod race team.
We'll keep you updated when the first races will take place...

Good to know:

In slalom racing, a course, which is usually marked out with pylons, is run at least twice. Knocking over or moving a gate limit gives a 10-second penalty. Driving through a gate from the wrong direction or not in the prescribed order: 30 seconds. Skipping a gate and not passing through it by turning around in the prescribed direction will not be scored. Scoring will be based on time, including any penalty seconds. If two drivers have the same time, the time of the last run decides.

Learn more about the context of the symposium here:

In the middle of november the last four of a total of 10 KYBURZ ePedelec were delivered to Deutsche Post. From Munich to Hamburg, from Karlsruhe to Berlin, i.e. right across the German states, the chainless driven postal delivery vehicles will undergo a long-term field test. With a happy atmosphere, 9 vehicles of the pilot series were lined up in a row and photographed for the latest issue of the company newspaper before delivery to the neighboring country. A total of 15 vehicles were produced - three copies for further customers at home and abroad and two more for testing and certification of European guidelines.

The first two vehicles were finished being assembled in PLUS II production last week and are on the ground. The wide mudguards of the PLUS II catch the eye. The wider tyres are conspicuous and if you look closely, you will discover the impressive wheel adapters.

A lot of things worked out during the first assembly. The camera for safe reversing is nicely fitted in the centre under the tailgate. The doors have been redesigned. Inside, it has a handle for opening, as we know it from the car. The question that kept coming up, "Is the part here yet?" could finally be answered with "Yes".

We thank the PLUS team from development, production and purchasing for their performance and are convinced that the PLUS II will soon find many admirers and buyers.
