Flux Performance, the Slovenian technology leader in the electric motorcycle space, proudly announces the addition of César Ferreira as Chief Technology Officer. Committed to advancing electric motorcycle technology and making internal combustion motorcycles a thing of the past, Ferreira most recently served as Chief Vehicle Engineer and interim CTO at Stark Future and previously held several key engineering roles at brands like KTM and AJP Motos. He is now ready to push Flux to new horizons.
Marko Ukota, CEO of Flux Performance, stated:
“This. Is. Huge. My ambition with Flux has always been to not only stand out in performance, but to lead through technological breakthroughs and how scalable our bikes are to build. César brings all the knowledge from years at the top of the industry and is now pushing our existing innovations even further. With him on board, we gain experience and a proven tech mindset that’s driving the world’s most competitive electric dirt bike into reality. His expertise accelerates our path to lean, fast, focused mass production.”
Ferreira’s background includes leading the engineering of KTM’s R2 Adventure motorcycles, developing complete vehicle platforms, and overseeing both on-road and off-road innovation. At Stark Future, he supported a single product to record-setting success within its category, proving how massive the off-road electric market can be, if you have the right product.
César Ferreira, CTO of Flux Performance:
“The motorcycle industry has welcomed several new players in recent years, much like the early days of the automotive industry. As history has shown, it was the combination of engineering excellence, quality and product vision that ultimately defined the iconic brands we still recognize today.
My passion for engineering has driven my entire career, dedicated to designing, developing and producing motorcycles at major OEMs. At Flux, I am committed to building a product that delivers the best possible experience, both in the saddle and as an owner. Achieving
these demands relentless focus on technical innovation, process efficiency, a results-driven mindset and above all, understanding and delivering what riders truly value.”
In parallel with Ferreira’s appointment, Flux Performance is also welcoming another key design engineer – Bram De Bondt as a Lead Mechanical Design Engineer. As an accomplished mechanical engineer, Bram brings extensive experience from the automotive and industries, including work on top level programs at Krämer, KTM and Scott Sports. His broad engineering background in chassis and supension design, as well as industrialisation, further strengthen Flux’s ability to execute on its bold vision.
Marko Ukota added:
“Having Bram on board is another huge milestone. He brings best in class competence from highly demanding and competitive programs. With César and Bram now part of the core team, we are accelerating with a dream team of technical leaders. César is a cornerstone in the puzzle – only a few people in the world understand the development and manufacturing of high-performance electric motorcycles like he does. This is a perfect fit.”
The appointments of Ferreira and De Bondt follow a series of strategic team additions, including Marc Fenigstein, founder of Alta Motors, and Karl Ytterborn, former CMO and co-founder of CAKE.
With this world class team now in place, Flux Performance is entering a new chapter – one that positions it as a global leader in electric off-road performance.
