The Babolat Evo Drive Lite Gen2 (White, 102548) is a light, strung tennis racket built for power, comfort and an easy swing. At 255g unstrung, with a 104 sq in head and open 16x17 pattern, it suits rising intermediates, juniors moving to a full-size frame and anyone who values comfort and manoeuvrability.
Key Features
- 255g unstrung – superb handling for smaller-framed players, teenagers moving up to adult frames, or anyone who prefers a fast, reactive swing.
- 104 sq in head, 16x17 string pattern – easy depth, generous spin potential and plenty of forgiveness on off-centre hits.
- Air Handle Touch (AHT) – Babolat’s technology in the handle absorbs vibration and reduces impact shock, for comfort over long sessions or with sensitive arms.
- Elliptical 23-26-23mm graphite beam – a powerful yet controlled feel.
- Woofer System – extends string-ball contact for more feel, responsiveness and control.
- Pure Drive-inspired look – familiar styling in a lighter frame.
Performance Overview
This lighter version of the popular Evo Drive is easy to swing and easy on the arm. The slightly larger head and open pattern help you find depth and spin without forcing the stroke, while AHT and the Woofer System keep the response comfortable and controlled – more powerful, confident play without the bulk.
Who Is It For?
- Players seeking lightweight performance with added comfort.
- Teenagers or juniors moving into adult frames.
- Casual to intermediate players wanting a power-boosting, arm-friendly racket.
- Fans of the Pure Drive look who want a lighter touch.
