Electric vehicles are already conquering the market, offering drivers to save significant amounts of money on annual petrol supplies and complicated service. While the market for electric cars has a small number of models to offer, and everyone knows about them, the market for electric motorbikes is much more diverse. YourMotoBro.com experts have visited many presentations and test-drive sessions in 2024, and Q1 2024 and the selection of their favorite electric bikes are presented below.
1. Zero SR

Zero SR is a fabulous sporty two-wheeler with a design that can compete with high-speed monsters by Ducati, Kawasaki, and Honda. However, you won’t hear any noise after starting the engine. The top speed of this EV is 102MPH, which is enough to keep up with the pace of any highway and to be mobile enough on the streets of a busy city.
The maximal range from a fully charged battery depends on a range, but the average range in the city is 179 miles, which means that you can use it to drive to work, have a ride around the city, and come back without the need to recharge during the day.
2. Energica Ego

If you want an even more aggressive motorbike, the Energica Ego may become an excellent choice. This electric motorcycle is designed and manufactured in the same town as Vespa scooters, but it’s a much more contemporary and powerful aggregate.
Energica engineers managed to create a lightweight motorbike that can handle around 100 miles on a top speed of 149 miles per hour, which is one of the best results amongst all the available models.

Johammer J1.200 is the weirdest motorbike we’ve seen on YourMotoBro.com. Its unusual design looks like a futuristic tribute to the old concept-bikes by Indian and other legendary motorsport pioneers. This sci-fi two-wheeler provides excellent performance, including 75mph top speed and 120-mile range on a single charge.
This bike doesn’t have a dashboard. Instead, it has high-resolution displays built into transparent rear-view mirrors. Such an innovative combination lets you evaluate the situation behind while checking the current speed and battery charge level.

The entire body of the scooter is framed with front, side, and backward racks that add some extra protection and let you hang quite a lot of road luggage. If you need a medium-speed bike for unhurried road trips, Gogoro Smartscooter S2 Adventure is a perfect choice.
6. Super Soco TC-Max

We first saw Super Soco TC-Max on at Motorcycle Live 2018 in the UK but didn’t pay enough attention because LifeWire and Energica Ego concepts looked much more promising. This year we were lucky to have hands-on this lightweight bike, and it was a real surprise.
This $4500 motorcycle has a powerful battery by Amperex Technology Limited, the manufacturer of all batteries for Apple devices. It lets you drive up to 80 miles at 60mph. It’s a perfect result for such a low price. YourMotoBro.com experts recommend you to get this bike if you want a stylish sporty solution for the price of a scooter.
