Benzina Zero x Torrot: Two New Dirt Bikes Extend the Youth Ladder

Spanish electric off-road brand Torrot has teamed up with Benzina Zero, bringing two new electric dirt bikes to Europe while refreshing its youth line-up.
Torrot says Tornajo and Hurajan, two new off-road machines developed by Australian outfit Benzina Zero, will arrive in 2026 with Torrot acting as exclusive European importer.
That move potentially expands Torrot from a youth-focused brand into a much broader electric off-road line-up.
MX1 and MX2 Get a Refresh
Torrot's MX1 and MX2 return for 2026 with a new desert-inspired graphic package, but the underlying formula stays the same: lightweight electric dirt bikes designed as starter machines for young riders.
MX1
Remaining the entry point, aimed at the smallest riders just getting their first taste of dirt.
Age: 3–7 years old
Max rider weight: about 30 kg (66 lb)
Seat height: 550–575 mm adjustable
Wheel size: 10-inch front and rear
MX2
The step-up bike for older kids who want something with more pace and motocross handling.
Age: about 6–11 years old
Max rider weight: about 40 kg (88 lb)
Seat height: 640 mm
Bike weight: about 32 kg (70 lb)
The MX2 runs a programmable electric motor producing roughly 1.5 kW, with a top speed of around 44 km/h (27 mph) depending on settings. Power comes from a removable lithium battery, while Torrot’s KIDS app allows parents to adjust power delivery and speed limits remotely.
Parental Control App
In other words, a digital throttle stop, dial it down while the kid's are learning, open it up as their confidence grows.
Parental control has been central to Torrot’s approach for years, and it’s one of the reasons the brand gained traction early in the youth electric dirt bike market.
Tornajo and Hurajan: the Bigger Story
Torrot has confirmed it will expand with Tornajo and Hurajan, two new electric motorcycles in the market.
Torrot will handle European distribution, while development is under Benzina's wing. So far, details remain thin. There are no confirmed specs, power figures, or pricing, but Torrot says the bikes are aimed at teen and adult riders. Prototypes have already undergone testing in Europe and Australia.
Torrot’s Off-Road Ladder
The company already runs youth progression through the MX1, MX2, and larger, upcoming MX3, designed to take riders from their first dirt experience up through more serious junior motocross machines. Adding Benzina Zero's Tornajo and Hurajan would extend that ladder.
That’s a crowded arena right now. Riders already have solid options across the electric dirt spectrum, from lightweight trail bikes to full-power motocross machines. So the success will depend on what Benzina Zero delivers: power, weight, suspension spec, and price will all matter.
The BCB take
What’s interesting here is the Benzina Zero–Torrot collab. and the direction it signals for the brands.
Youth progression is a strategy increasingly showing up across the electric off-road sector as brands realise the value of keeping riders inside the ecosystem as they grow.
It’s also straight out of the legacy motocross playbook, where manufacturers like KTM and Yamaha have long moved riders up through the ranks without them ever leaving the brand.
If Tornajo and Hurajan land with respected spec sheets, that ladder pushes Torrot and Benzina into the same territory traditionally dominated by ICE manufacturers.
Right now though, we’ve got names and a partnership. Specs will decide whether riders start paying attention.
Ride safe, folks.
