Arctic Leopard has put the headline numbers for its new XD PRO out two days before the bike is unveiled at CIMAMotor in Chongqing: 35 kW, a 5.6 kWh semi-solid-state pack, and 200 km of claimed range.

Arctic Leopard has released the headline specs for its new XD PRO two days before the bike is unveiled at CIMAMotor in Chongqing. Posted to the company’s official Facebook page on Thursday afternoon, Australian time: 35 kW peak power, a 74V 76Ah battery, 200 km of claimed range and a 120 km/h top speed.

The number that matters is not the power. It is the two words sitting next to the battery: semi-solid-state.

  • Peak power: 35 kW (about 47 hp)
  • Battery: 74V 76Ah semi-solid-state — 5.6 kWh
  • Range: 200 km, claimed (test speed not stated)
  • Top speed: 120 km/h
  • Suspension: optional KYB, RFloXa or KKE shocks
  • Launch: 2pm Saturday 19 September, Chongqing time (4pm AEST), Hall N3, booth 3T51
  • Not yet published: weight, price, charge time, cell supplier, Australian timing

On 25 August we wrote about what solid-state batteries will do to electric dirt bikes: up to double the energy density at the same weight, far more aggressive fast charging, and a much smaller fire risk once the flammable liquid electrolyte is gone. Geely’s rollout starts in 2027, and our read was that race bikes would follow in 2028 or 2029, with consumer machines by the turn of the decade.

Semi-solid-state is the halfway house. A gel or hybrid electrolyte replaces most of the liquid in a conventional lithium-ion cell. It is not the full jump, but the claims for it run the same direction: better thermal stability, faster charging without degradation, longer life and better performance in the cold.

Where the XD PRO sits in the range is instructive. 74V is the voltage of Arctic Leopard’s XE PRO platform. The XE PRO R carries a 74V 60Ah pack, which is 4.4 kWh. The XD PRO’s 76Ah is 5.6 kWh — 27 per cent more capacity at the same voltage. Above it, the E·XE 880 flagship runs a 90V 75Ah pack (6.75 kWh) with 37 kW peak and 108 kg on the scales. So the new bike lands just under the flagship on power, with a battery between the two.

What follows is speculation on our part. If the XD PRO shares the XE PRO’s frame and battery bay, 76Ah in the space that held 60Ah is exactly the gain semi-solid-state cells are supposed to deliver — more energy in the same box, at the same or lower weight. Arctic Leopard has published no weight and no pack dimensions, so that is a question for Saturday, not a finding.

A few other gaps. The 200 km range figure comes without a test speed; the E·XE 880’s 215 km is quoted at 35 km/h, and the XD PRO’s number should be read the same way until told otherwise. There is no cell supplier named. And the XC, the second new model, is still a mystery — Arctic Leopard has said only that it is “coming soon”, and nothing about whether it gets the same pack.

Arctic Leopard is already sold in Australia. The E·XE 880 lists at $15,950 and the XF Pro at $5,950 through Australian retailers, and both are in our Bike Index. There is no word yet on when, or whether, the XD PRO follows them here.

The XD PRO is unveiled at 2pm Saturday, Chongqing time, alongside the XC. TerraVolt eMoto is a CIMAMotor media partner and we will update this article as the launch material lands.
