2023 has proven to be quite the year for electric motorcycles. More and more manufacturers, both new and established, seem to be expressing interest in making bigger investments in the realm of e-mobility. If EICMA 2023 was anything to go by, it’s clear to see that electric two-wheelers are here, and they’re here to stay.
Among the exciting innovations at EICMA 2023 was Niu, a Chinese manufacturer of electric two-wheelers that has made quite a name for itself when it comes to electric scooters and commuters designed for the urban jungle. The XQi3 marks the brand’s first foray into the world of electric dirt bikes. Interestingly, there has been quite a pick up in electric off-roaders, thanks to the instantaneous torque provided by electric motors, as well as their silent operation that doesn’t disturb residential areas.
