Electric motorcycles and scooters continue to shape the future of urban mobility. That being said, the majority of the offerings in today’s market consist of small-capacity scooters and utility-focused two-wheelers. Indeed, it’s clear to see why this is the case, as more and more cities push for quiet, zero-emissions urban transport.
However, as battery technology progresses, we’re now seeing more manufacturers offer electric motorcycles designed for fun and recreation. A good example of this is Chinese manufacturer QJ Motor, and its recently launched OAO Pro. You may be familiar with this motorcycle as the QJ Motor RX, an electric sportbike that made its debut back in EICMA 2022. In China, however, the bike has since then been renamed and refined to offer better range. More specifically the concept model showcased at EICMA had a range of just 120 kilometers (75 miles), while the new OAO Pro now flaunts 170 kilometers (106 miles) per charge.
