Electrified Adventure:
The Taurus Electro offers complete freedom and is a ground-breaking 2-seat, side-by-side, self-launching glider. With superb handling, excellent gliding performance, and a spacious cockpit the Taurus Electro is ready for you! Thanks to the all-electric 40 kw powertrain, the Taurus Electro can operate from shorter runways and climbs faster, representing a leap forward on performance, safety, functionality, and is pilot friendly.
More than just a touch of innovation!
On board ,Taurus Electro features a full networked avionics package providing fly-by-wire powertrain management with built-in multi-layer protection. State of the art hybrid battery management developed in-house provides better performance and longer battery life, with the ability to monitor battery status and all parameters.
The complete zero emissions package:
Pipistrelʼs solar trailer can charge the Taurus Electro without any connection to the grid. The solar trailer offers 1.5 kw of usable power to charge your Taurus Electro in the remotest of locations. The solar trailer is the perfect companion and allows you to charge for free, quietly, and with zero emissions. The trailer also offers multiple 12v and 240v power outlets and an integrated 3.6 kw storage battery.
Why the Taurus Electro?
• Completely self-sufficient when matched with the solar trailer
