minus-squaredublet@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up10arrow-down1·3 months ago I think it’s irresponsible of the Verge to tout an electric motorcycle’s range as “up to 600km”. It’s absolute fantasy. Reached 310.69km with 7% charge on the 20.2kWh battery remaining during a challenge in London. https://www.motorcyclenews.com/news/2025/april/verge-electric-bike-distance-record/ It took 16 hours though, so that works out to around 19km/h or 12mph. 🐌
