5 Of The Best Electric Motorcycles That Are Actually Affordable
By THARINDU DIAS
SONDORS Metacycle
The $6,500 SONDORS Metacycle is a great option for those looking for an affordable electric commuter bike. It has a range of around 80 miles, making it suitable for city travel.
However, there are some issues with the bike. Most notable is its lack of a battery percentage display, making it a challenge to accurately gauge the remaining battery life.
The Ultraviolette F77 is suitable for various riding conditions, including mountain roads. It is currently planned to debut in the U.S. in 2024 at around $4,000 to $5,000.
Some versions of the Ultraviolette F77 add a substantial 10.3 kWh battery pack to the quick and agile motorcycle, providing a 307 km range in ideal conditions.
The $5,000 ONYX RCR combines an e-bike with a dirt bike, creating a product with a 3-kilowatt electric motor with an output of 5.4 kilowatts and 142 ft-lb of torque.
Often drawing comparisons to the iconic Vespa, the Aventura-X is equipped with a 2,000W Brushless DC Motor that enables it to reach a maximum speed of 30 MPH.
With the 30 MPH top speed and 50-mile range per charge, the Aventura-X is suitable for city commuting and short trips. The bike is often priced under $4,000.
Priced between $3,500-4,000 and powered by a 6.7bhp motor, the Super Soco TC is an affordable 3-bike designed to be comparable to a 125cc petrol bike in terms of performance.
However, one of its limitations is its range, which stands at 60 miles. This range is ideal for short urban commutes but may require frequent charging for longer trips.
