Electric motorcycles are here, and they’re here to stay. However, if you’re into the more performance-oriented side of motorcycling, I’m sure you’ll agree with me when I say that options for sporty electric two-wheelers are far and few in between. Perhaps the market just isn’t there yet, as most electric two-wheelers in Europe and Asia have utility and practicality in mind.
Kymco, a Taiwanese motorcycle manufacturer known mostly for its scooters first showcased its intentions of targeting the performance-oriented electric motorcycle segment back in 2018 when it debuted the SuperNEX prototype at EICMA. Now, some four years later, the SuperNEX has yet to make it to production. In fact, the project had gone quiet for quite a long time, so much so that hopes of the bike ever making it to reality were vanishing. Luckily, at EICMA 2022, Kymco showcased some design updates to the SuperNEX concept—but yes, it’s still a concept.
