  • I think it’s irresponsible of the Verge to tout an electric motorcycle’s range as “up to 600km”. It’s absolute fantasy.

    I have an electric dirtbike and a gas bike. My gas bike has an 11.1 L tank and can go about 360km per tank.

    The highest actual range I’ve seen on an electric motorcycle is about 100km of mixed use (highway and city).

    Solid state batteries have the potential capability of having almost double the power density as lithium ion. So approx 200-300km (maybe).

    Pretty solid but doubling THAT is just dishonest and in no way going to happen. You’re claiming to have more power density than internal combustion. That’s just straight up dishonest.
