BRISBANE, Australia – February 18th, 2026 Benzina Zero has revealed the Turbina, a bold new all-electric motorcycle design statement created in collaboration with design agency Grand Yarra. The one-of-a-kind concept showcases Benzina Zero’s vision for the future of electric motorcycling through radical form, experimental engineering, and design-led thinking, offering a glimpse inside a creative partnership obsessed with detail.
Conceived by Benzina Zero co-founder Joe D’Ercole and developed with Grand Yarra, Turbina is a pure concept vehicle. It’s symmetrical, sculptural and intentionally unconventional. While not intended for immediate production, the concept explores what electric motorcycles could become when freed from traditional design constraints, pushing the boundaries of aesthetics, performance thinking and mechanical expression through a shared creative process.
The Turbina is designed as a vision piece rather than a commercial product, demonstrating Benzina Zero’s creative capability and its willingness to challenge the status quo in electric mobility. The project reflects the brand’s ambition to extend beyond utility-focused electric vehicles and into culture, design and engineering imagination, positioning the Turbina as a design-led exploration that could influence future production models.
Joe D’Ercole, Co-Founder and design lead of the Turbina project, comments:
“Motorcycle design has always been shaped by compromise and I wanted something different. But this design is more than mere fantasy with every element able to be manufactured. Every line, every curve, every mechanical decision has purpose. From the unique twin-tyre wheels to the inboard suspension design and deliberate low centre of gravity. Turbina is a promise that motorcycle design doesn't have to be a collection of compromises and represents our commitment to design-led thinking in the EV space. Our willingness to explore bold and unconventional ideas, and our belief that electric mobility can be emotionally compelling, not just practical.”
“Working with Adam and the team at Grand Yarra, we approached every surface, every component, every angle with absolute scrutiny. They listened to every detail I requested, offered solutions I hadn’t imagined, and together we pushed beyond what seemed possible.”
The collaboration with Grand Yarra underscores Benzina Zero’s focus on partnering with leading creative and design talent to push innovation in the electric motorcycle category. More than a motorcycle concept, Turbina stands as a creative statement about what’s possible when design, engineering and shared philosophy collide, reinforcing Benzina Zero’s positioning at the forefront of future-focused electric mobility.
