Verge Unveils California Edition E-Motorcycle
F
innish electric superbike
manufacturer Verge Motor-
cycles unveiled the company's
latest innovation at the L.A. Auto
Show, the brand-new California
Edition electric motorcycle.
Verge Motorcycles said it "is
proud to release an electric bike
that combines elegant, futuristic
styling with world-class perfor
-
mance."
Incorporating Verge's pat-
ented hubless motor design and
technology, the California Edition
is specifically designed for the
"finest electric riding experience
in the motorcycle category." The
bike's motor is in the rear wheel,
which Verge says allows for a
larger battery, resulting in a lon
-
ger range and more stable and
smooth riding experience. Verge
claims its bikes are the "fast-
est and most advanced electric
motorcycles on the market."
The $30,900 California Edi-
tion is powered by Verge's TS
Pro platform, producing 1000
Nm of torque with a top speed
of 124 miles per hour and a 0-60
time of 3.5 seconds. The battery,
Verge says, has a charging time
of 35 minutes and a range of up
to 217 miles on a single charge.
"The California Edition stands
out in a few ways compared to
previous Verge models," said
Verge Mototcycles Co-Founder
and Chief Product Officer Ville
Piippo. "First, the colorway is
inspired by the California Pop
-
py's brilliant orange color. The
fairings on this bike also sport
a dual-tone finish of orange and
black and have custom Califor-
nia Edition branding on the side.
This limited-edition motorcycle
also comes with a large touch-
screen HMI that is customized
to support special visuals each
time the bike is turned on. We
are confident that the California
Edition will turn heads out on the
open road, and we're very proud
of the work our team put in to
make this possible."
