Electric motorcycles were once a rarity in the two-wheeler industry. But these days there are so many new models from a wide range of manufacturers that you’d have to go out of your way to avoid them. Fortunately for those in favor of progress, we actively seek them out. And these are the electric motorcycle news stories that you guys liked the most. You voted with your clicks, and these five stories became the biggest of 2022.
Harley-Davidson selling out its newest electric motorcycle in 18 minutes highlights pent-up demand
Harley-Davidson spun off its electric motorcycle operations into a dedicated EV brand last year with its big LiveWire launch.
LiveWire inherited the LiveWire One electric motorcycle from Harley, which made LiveWire’s second model its first to actually be developed under the new nameplate. The LiveWire S2 Del Mar launch was exciting for the company, but news that the Launch Edition of the S2 Del Mar sold out in 18 minutes was even more exciting for the industry.

The bike is expected to begin making deliveries early next year, though I got an early test ride on the bike this Autumn to see how the S2 Del Mar performs.
I was shocked to see that instead of being a toned down LiveWire One, it had nearly the same acceleration as its big brother. With a 0-60 mph time of around 3.1 seconds, it was ferocious off the line.
Cruising around New York with a mixture of city and highway riding gave me a feel for the bike’s handling in various scenarios, and I’m more pumped than ever for its upcoming release.
Check out my first ride experience here or take a look at the video below to see the bike in action.
TS Bravo is the latest low-cost electric motorcycle with the specs and price to upend the industry
There’s a chance you haven’t heard of this electric motorcycle, which would be fair since it is only starting to spread around Europe now.
The TS Bravo from Alrendo is a Chinese electric motorcycle built for the Western market. Its Eastern assembly means it can undercut the pricing of many major name-brand bikes, yet may actually offer better specs than many of the middleweight electric motorcycles you’re familiar with.
The European price is €11,200 (approximately US $12,300) including 20% European VAT, meaning the price may vary slightly from country to country depending on local VAT tax rates. The TS Bravo is available across the EU, as well as in Switzerland, Russia, Norway, and Israel. But Alrendo isn’t stopping there. As the head of Europe Connor McRae explained to Electrek:
There are several South East Asian countries we are entering at the moment, and we are in final talks for the UK, Australia, and New Zealand.
On the specs side, you may be surprised by what the TS Bravo is packing. For example, the bike has a massive 17.4 kWh battery. That’s enough for 438 km (272 miles) of range at city speeds of 50 km/h (31 mph). At mixed city/highway riding averaging 80 km/h (50 mph), the TS Bravo has a reported range of 278 km (172 miles). And at faster 120 km/h (75 mph) highway blasting, the bike can still achieve an impressive 160 km (100 miles) of range.

As a commuter-level electric motorcycle, the top speed of 135 km/h (84 mph) won’t be the sportiest on the road. Daily commuters should find it to be plenty though since few riders require higher speeds on their way to work.
The TS Bravo is powered by a mid-mounted motor rated for 11 kW continuous and 20 kW peak. The water-cooled motor uses a Gates carbon belt drive and is capable of operating more efficiently at higher-power levels due to its improved cooling, which is part of the reason it can better maintain its peak power levels compared to air-cooled motors.
This is definitely one to keep your eye on.
Exclusive: Ryvid Anthem unveiled as revolutionary new affordable electric motorcycle in the US
We were excited to break the news on a brand-new California-based electric motorcycle company that unveiled its first model, the Ryvid Anthem.
Ryvid’s electric motorcycle is novel in a number of ways, from a striking new look to an innovative folded metal frame and even a seat that can be raised and lowered while riding by up to 4 inches (100 mm).
The light electric motorcycle is commuter-ready with a top speed of around 75 mph (120 km/h), meaning this is more of a getting around town type of bike than a canyon carver. It can still reach highway speeds though, making it ideal for everyday riding.
The Ryvid Anthem isn’t designed to compete with flagship electric motorcycles like the US $20k+ Zero SR/F or Harley-Davidson’s LiveWire One. Instead, the US $7,800 electric motorcycle is meant for average commuter riders with average commuter wallets.

The low mounting point of the 7.5 kW continuous-rated and 13.5 kW peak-rated motor keeps the weight lower on the bike, as does the low-slung 4.3 kWh battery pack. The entire bike weighs around 240 lb (108 kg), which is already quite light for an electric motorcycle, but the low center of mass makes the bike feel even nimbler. And with 250 lb-ft of torque at the rear wheel, the Anthem takes full advantage of that electric motor.
Much of the Anthem’s weight comes from the 65 lb (29.5 kg) battery pack, which is removable for charging off of the bike when necessary. The battery removal process is quite ingenious, as unlocking it from the bike causes the battery to lower down onto a set of built-in wheels for easily rolling into an apartment or office building.
When returning the battery to the bike, the case of the battery locks into a fulcrum in the bike’s housing to lever up into place. That means the rider never supports the full weight of the battery.
Charging the battery on a typical home outlet will take 3 hours on 220V or 6 hours on 110V. An optional on-board charger instead of a separate brick charger is currently in the works but won’t be available at launch. If you have a ground-level outlet, such as in a garage, you’ll likely never need to remove the battery. But for anyone that lives in an apartment or lacks access to an outlet, the ability to roll the battery indoors, up and elevator and into your apartment or office to charge is a nice feature to have.

The Ryvid Anthem claims a range of 75 miles (120 km) in Eco mode or 40-50 mile range (64-80 km) in Sport Mode without the regenerative braking turned on. Mixed riding is likely to fall somewhere in the middle of those two figures.
I had the chance to test ride a Ryvid Anthem prototype a few months ago, which you can see in the video below. The experience was incredible and showed me just what a potent urban assault bike the Anthem truly is. From cruising PCH to slicing through the streets of Irvine, the Ryvid Anthem took me on a tour of LA to show off both the city and the bike’s abilities.
SUPER73 unveils new 75 mph light electric motorcycle
SUPER73 is best known as an electric bicycle brand that builds moped-inspired e-bikes. They may have functional pedals, but these aren’t your ordinary, everyday e-bikes. SUPER73 has a fiercely loyal community of riders that take bike culture (and customizations) to the next level.
So it only made sense that SUPER73 would drill down further into their roots towards the motorhead end of the spectrum, or at least the electric motorhead end. That’s exactly what they did with the Spring 2022 reveal of the brand’s upcoming SUPER73 C1X electric motorcycle.
This light electric motorcycle is designed to fill the gap between high-power electric bicycles and larger electric motorcycles. CEO LeGrand Crewse described it at the launch as the “natural evolution of a SUPER73.”
The smallish size and 31″ seat height puts it closer to a Honda Grom than a full-sized street bike, and the lower diameter 15″ wheels should keep it fairly nimble.
The bike will also be lighter than full-size electric motorcycles as well, as the company says it has a “target weight of under 300 lb.”

The C1X features a mid-mounted motor, though the company has not yet released a power figure for the motor. SUPER73 did say that it should get riders up to a max speed of “over 75 mph,” or at least 120 km/h for anyone keeping track across the pond.
SUPER73 opted for a chain drive on the C1X, so don’t expect this to be a silent electric motorcycle. Unlike most e-motos that use belt drives, chain-driven electric motorcycles tend to have a bit more chainsaw sound than motor whirr.
There’s no word yet on how large the battery pack on the SUPER73-C1X is, but the company claims it can eke out a maximum city range of 100 miles (160 km).
We also don’t know exactly when the bike will come to market, but it’s already begun low-speed testing ahead of an anticipated “late 2023” production commencement.
Yamaha reveals fresh-looking new design for an electric moped, plus new e-bikes and scooters
Yamaha hosted a large unveiling event as part of the brand’s new “Switch ON” campaign to showcase its electric vehicles, surprising many in the industry with the number of vehicles that Yamaha ultimately rolled on stage.
The company had six new electric two-wheelers to show off, but the star of the show was the most radical looking two-wheeler on stage, the Yamaha B01.
The eye-catching truss frame creates a step-through bike that fits nicely in the electric moped category with its large street tires and mid-mounted electric motor tied to a pedal drivetrain.

In fact, the bike looks so good that it even conjures up memories of another recently revealed electric bike, the Fantic Issimo.
As it turns out, Yamaha appears to have partnered with Fantic, resulting in the Issimo finding its way onto Yamaha’s stage adorned with a new Yamaha badge.
Whatever it’s called, the bike certainly embodies a fresh new electric moped design to challenge many of the same old recycled moped designs we’ve seen over the years.
Yamaha floated specs of up to 45 km/h (28 mph), making this a speed pedelec in Europe (similar to a Class 3 electric bike in the US).

It definitely sounds like Yamaha plans to bring the B01 concept to life. As President of Yamaha Motors Europe Eric De Seynes explained:
“Its future will become true sooner. We will start the production of this vehicle within one year, beginning in 2023.”
It’s hard to say what motor and battery Yamaha plans to put in the B01.
The Fantic Issimo came with a Bafang M500 mid-drive motor in the urban version of the bike, and the company paired it with a 630Wh battery. Yamaha very well may want to use its own brand of motor instead of opting for a Chinese alternative like Bafang, but that remains to be seen as the B01 works its way towards production.
What’s coming next in 2023?
You can tell by the most popular electric motorcycle stories of the year that there was a huge amount of variety in this year’s major electric motorcycle unveilings.
At the rate the industry is moving, who’s to say what we could see in 2023? There’s only one thing for sure: Electrek will be there to cover the news first as the premier EV website, bringing you all of the latest stories on the most interesting new electric two-wheelers.

Among the lineup, we spotted the DELTA 2 Solar Generator bundle with a smart extra battery and two 110W panels at a new $997 low. Right behind it is Lectric’s 4th of July Sale, which is taking up to $703 off its e-bike bundles, including continued savings on the new XP4 e-bikes that start from $999 with up to $356 in free gear. We also have a spotlight on Rad Power’s RadCity 5 Plus Commuter e-bike in its gorgeous burgundy red colorway at $1,499 through June 25. Lastly, we have two electric lawn care solutions at their best rates to date, with the Worx 20V 5-inch Cordless Mini Chainsaw at $84, while the Greenworks 82V Commercial 760 CFM Cordless Axial Leaf Blower comes with two Bluetooth 4.0Ah batteries and a dual-port rapid charger for $300. Plus, there’s all the rest of the hangover Green Deals from last week in the links at the bottom of the page, collected together in our Electrified Weekly roundup.
Head below for other New Green Deals we’ve found today and, of course, Electrek’s best EV buying and leasing deals. Also, check out the new Electrek Tesla Shop for the best deals on Tesla accessories.
While we’ve yet to enter July, EcoFlow has launched its early Prime Day Sale running through July 7, taking up to 60% off in initial discounts while also offering bonus savings, free gear giveaways, member-only benefits, and even subsidies on a selection of bundles. Among the great offers we’re seeing, you can more affordably equip your travels and home life with backup support through the DELTA 2 Solar Generator bundle with a smart extra battery and two 110W panels for $996.55 shipped, after using the sitewide code EFPDAFF5 at checkout for an additional 5% off. This package would normally cost you $2,596 at full price, with it not featured in sales as much as the smaller bundles of either the expansion battery or the solar panels, though we did last see it drop to $999 during the brand’s Mega Sale in April. It’s coming in $2 lower than before for a total 62% markdown that cuts $1,599 off the tag, making it the best price we have tracked and one that is exclusive to the brand’s direct sales.
EcoFlow’s early Prime Day Sale features plenty of additional savings that are worth going over here. First, there’s the sitewide 5% extra savings you’ll get on orders using the code EFPDAFF5 at checkout, which can be increased to 7% extra savings on orders over $4,000 using the code EFPDAFF7 at checkout. Members have a few select pricing deals (sign up is free), while also getting 2x EcoCredits on the select website-only deals and the option to redeem EcoCredits for up to another 5% off orders at checkout. From there, you’ll also be getting a free RAPID 5,000mAh power bank with orders of $500 or more, which you can choose to swap for a free 250W solar panel when your order total reaches $2,500. Lastly, some select bundles require installation, but the brand is offering up to $500 subsidies for these, which you’ll find curated into a separate section below.

This EcoFlow DELTA 2 solar generator bundle makes a solid low-budget option to equip your out-of-home trips and home emergencies with reliable backup power support. With the smart extra battery, the usual 1,024Wh LiFePO4 capacity is doubled to 2,048Wh here, which can go further up to 3,072Wh with an additional battery. This setup provides 1,800W of steady output power through the 15 port options, surging as high as 2,200W when you have appliances with larger needs. You’ll get the usual lineup of remote smart controls – plus, the station has been given an IP68 waterproof construction considering it’ll likely accompany you into nature.
There’s also the brand’s fast-charging tech here to get the battery back to 80% in just 50 minutes through a wall outlet, or you can reach a full battery in 80 minutes. There’s a 500W max solar input, which would put the battery to full in three to six hours, so the combination here would take a bit longer. You can also recharge it via the DC port or the car port.
***Note: the prices below have not had the additional sitewide savings factored in (and don’t forget it’s going off order total), so be sure to use the code EFPDAFF5 on orders up to $3,999 and the code EFPDAFF7 on orders over $4,000 for the maximum savings!

Celebrate America’s birthday with Lectric’s new XP4 e-bikes and up to $356 in free gear from $999 in 4th of July Sale
Lectric has launched its 4th of July Sale that will run through July 7, offering up to $703 in savings on the brand’s e-bike bundles. It’s a great time to ring in the celebrations of America’s birthday with the latest generation of the country’s favorite e-bike, which has the standard XP4 e-bikes coming with $79 in free gear at $999 shipped, while the XP4 750 Long-Range e-bikes are getting $356 in free gear at $1,299 shipped. You’d normally have to shell out $1,078 and $1,655 for these packages at full price, which has been the continued deal since launching two weeks ago. The free gear on the standard models is the brand’s new LevelUp rack, which expands the cargo rack’s size, while the long-range models are getting that on top of a wider comfort saddle, a suspension seat post, an Elite headlight, and an accordion-style bike lock. Head below to learn more about these new models and to check out all the other deals from this sale.
Coming in a wider array of colorways than many of Lectric’s other models, Lectric’s XP4 e-bikes have a number of upgrades from its predecessors, with the standard XP4 e-bikes equipped with a 500W brushless gear hub motor (that peaks at 1,092W) while the XP4 750 e-bikes sport larger 750W motors (that peak at 1,310W) – both of which utilize Stealth M24 tech for quieter performance. You’ll be able to max out at 28 MPH speeds in states that permit such, otherwise you’ll be able to top out at 20 MPH. The standard models sport a 10.4Ah battery for up to 50-mile travel ranges when PAS is activated, while the 750 long-range models boast a 17.5Ah battery for up to 85-mile journeys.
Among the biggest changeups in these e-bikes’ designs, standouts include the new redesigned frames that have a zero-degree stem, as well as the detachable TFT display and the repositioned non-drive side key location and charging port (plus, keyless riding options). There’s plenty more to love here, like the integrated taillight with brake lighting and turn signal functionality, the puncture-resistant mixed-terrain tires, hydraulic brakes, the 8-speed Shimano Altus derailleur, and much more. You can get a full rundown on what to expect in our original launch coverage here.

Rad Power’s stunning red burgundy RadCity 5 Plus commuter e-bike carries you up to 50+ miles at $1,499
As part of Rad Power’s ongoing Father’s Day Sale that will continue through June 25, and also running parallel to the new RadRunner Plus and Max free gear promotions, we wanted to shine a spotlight on the brand’s RadCity 5 Plus Commuter e-bike that is down at $1,499 shipped. Normally priced at $1,699 outside of sales, we haven’t seen this model included among the savings events since March. During last year’s Labor Day sale, we saw it fall to $999 while on clearance (and originally scheduled to be discontinued), but since the model was reintroduced, it’s only ever been discounted to this same rate, which comes in as the second-best non-clearance price that we have tracked.
I was very happy to see Rad Power continue offering the RadCity 5 Plus after its original discontinuation, as I regularly take rides on my mom’s e-bike when visiting Virginia – and I much prefer this burgundy red colorway that it now comes in. The 750W rear hub motor and 672Wh battery pair together to provide up to 50+ miles of travel on a full charge at top speeds of up to 20 MPH. It has five pedal assistance levels to support you through your journeys, or you can use the throttle to cruise on pure electric power, though this does drastically limit its mileage.
There’s plenty of solid features that make the ride all the better, like the water-resistant wiring harness and puncture-resistant tires. There’s also the hydraulic disc brakes, an integrated taillight that provides brake lighting, fenders to go over each tire, an integrated rear cargo rack, and a backlit LCD for setting adjustments and at-a-glance performance information.
Be sure to also check out the other deals we’re seeing in Rad Power’s long-lasting Father’s Day Sale, which includes a rare discount on the RadTrike and a new $999 low price on the RadExpand 5 Folding e-bike. And if you’ve been wanting to jump aboard the newest releases, you can score a free center cargo console for either the RadRunner Plus or RadRunner Max Cargo Utility e-bikes starting from $1,799.

Amazon is offering the Worx 20V 5-inch Cordless Mini Chainsaw at $84 shipped. Down from its $130 price tag, we’ve mostly seen it drop to $99 over the last year, with it more recently going lower to $89 while occasionally dipping to $85. Those rates are all getting beaten by the deal here, which comes as a 35% markdown that saves you $46 at the best price we have tracked. You can also find its upgraded Nitro counterpart down at $109 from $150 right now.
While it may not be the upgraded Nitro model that provides more cuts on a single charge, Worx’s first-generation mini chainsaw offers much of the same functionality for pruning tree branches at up to 100 cuts per charge of its 2.0Ah battery (which can also power 140+ other 20V, 40V and 80V tools). Its slim 3.9-pound design makes it handy when having to make cuts in tighter spaces, especially when you’re deep in the weeds and branches. You’ll be able to dial in your preferred tension level using the onboard tool, with it also providing an upper chain guard, as well as a hand guard, for added safety – plus, there’s a lock-out switch to prevent accidental start-ups.

Greenworks’ 82V commercial 760 CFM cordless axial blower with two Bluetooth 4.0Ah batteries at new $300 low (50% off)
Amazon is offering the Greenworks 82V Commercial-Grade 760 CFM Cordless Axial Leaf Blower bundle with two 82V Bluetooth 4.0Ah batteries and a dual-port rapid charger at $299.99 shipped. This combination of the blower with the two smart batteries would normally fetch $600 at full price. Discounts usually hit its one-battery package, which is currently down at the exact same rate, meaning you’ll be getting the additional 4.0Ah battery for free (valued at $250). All-in-all, you’re looking at a 50% markdown from the cost of buying everything separately, giving you $300 in savings at the best price we have tracked.
This 82V Greenworks axial leaf blower bundle comes as one of the brand’s commercial products for professional landscapers and groundskeepers, giving you “38% more power than a 27cc gas blower,” without the noise and fumes that those models tend to produce. It reaches a maximum of 760 CFM, providing up to 140 MPH air flow to clear out debris, all controlled via the trigger-activated variable speed and cruise controls. The batteries here are higher-end models than we see on its non-commercial tools, as they come with both digital and Bluetooth readouts, and allow for the blower’s 120-minute continuous runtime on a full charge of a single battery (so 240 minutes with both here).

Jim Cramer: Why Wall Street is actually going higher after the U.S. bombed Iran
Published

June 23, 2025By

Wall Street’s positive reaction to Saturday’s U.S. bombings in Iran suggests the oil-rich Mideast state is “not as relevant” to the stock market as it used to be, CNBC’s Jim Cramer said Monday. Indeed, U.S. oil benchmark West Texas Intermediate and global standard Brent were modestly lower early Monday, and the S & P 500 pushed higher. Both crude contracts came off their multi-month highs seen overnight following several sessions of volatile trading since Israel first attacked Iran’s nuclear facilities on June 13. On Monday afternoon, both WTI and Brent moved further to the downside — off more than 5% around 1:50 p.m. ET — after Iran claimed that it struck a U.S. military base in Qatar with missiles. Qatar’s military said, however, that its air defense successfully intercepted the missile attack, and no casualties were reported. The market has drifted between green and red for parts of Monday’s session, but spiked higher in afternoon trading as oil moved sharply lower. It’s a reflection of the dynamic the Club has called out over the past week as the Israel-Iran conflict escalated: Oil prices will heavily influence the stock market in a tense geopolitical moment like this. @CL.1 1D mountain WTI one day trading Oil analyst Helima Croft said in a CNBC interview that energy traders are looking for an off-ramp to the conflict, and some people might view this Iranian attack as being able to say, “OK, we’re done for now.” In a likely worst-case scenario for the oil market, Iran could close the Strait of Hormuz, the only way to ship crude from the oil-rich Persian Gulf to the rest of the globe. Around 20% of global crude consumption flowed through the waterway last year, according to the Energy Information Administration . President Donald Trump said in a social media post Monday that “everyone” should keep oil prices low, and doing otherwise would “play into the hands of the enemy.” “I’m just saying to myself, ‘Did nothing happen this weekend?’ And I think that the answer is, this is not China. This is not rare earth. This is not Taiwan,” Cramer said on “Squawk on the Street,” before the U.S. market officially opened for trading. “It’s not strategic. It is tactical, and given that it is tactical, people just say, ‘All right. Let’s see how that plays out.'” U.S. stocks ultimately opened higher Monday in the first session since the U.S. on Saturday struck three Iranian nuclear sites and entered Israel’s war with Iran. “This is not as relevant to our markets as it might have been at one time,” Cramer said. The S & P 500 was up more than 0.7% at Monday’s highs of the session. .SPX 1D mountain S & P 500 one day trading One of the biggest reasons for the measured reaction, according to Cramer, is that the global energy market looks a lot different now than it did decades ago, thanks to the rise in U.S. oil production. At the moment, it doesn’t look like the U.S. will see any substantial oil supply shocks, with Cramer saying there’s a belief that the U.S. has “plenty of oil.” As investors monitor the Middle East, Cramer pointed to a flurry of positive headlines for individual companies that have lifted their stocks. They included strong earnings Friday from grocery giant Kroger , a report of potential consolidation in the banking sector, and Melius Research’s upgrade of chipmaker Advanced Micro Devices . “There’s nothing which just says, ‘[Iran] is going to cast a pall on the following companies.’ So, I want very much to find out where the Achilles’ heel is for the market. But it’s not stablecoins. It’s not mergers. It’s not anything.” (See here for a full list of the stocks in Jim Cramer’s Charitable Trust.)

$15.5B in EV, renewable projects vanish as Senate eyes rollbacks
Published

June 23, 2025By

EV and renewable investments in the US are stalling – and May was another tough month. Businesses canceled $1.4 billion worth of clean energy factories and projects last month, according to the latest numbers from E2 and the Clean Economy Tracker. That pushes total canceled investments to $15.5 billion this year, wiping out nearly 12,000 potential jobs.
The reason for the slowdown: the Senate is preparing to vote on the “One Big Beautiful Bill Act,” a Republican-led tax and spending bill to raise taxes on clean energy and roll back key tax credits. A similar measure passed in the Republican-majority House. Those credits, passed in 2022, had helped drive a surge in US EV and renewable manufacturing.
As a result, renewable and EV momentum are reversing. GM scrapped plans to build EVs at its Tonawanda plant in New York. Instead, the automaker will use that money to expand production of gas-powered V8s.
Republican-led districts are ironically losing out the most. In 2025 alone, more than $9 billion in clean energy investments and nearly 10,000 jobs have been canceled, delayed, or closed in GOP districts.

May’s cancellations weren’t just on paper. About 600 workers lost their jobs thanks to the five site closures announced last month.
“The consequences of continued policy uncertainty and the expectation of higher taxes on clean energy businesses are becoming painfully clear,” said E2’s communications director, Michael Timberlake. “These cancellations are just the first shoe to drop.”
Still, there were some bright spots. Companies announced $450 million in new clean energy investments last month, including:
- Rivian’s $120 million supplier park in Illinois, expected to bring 100 new jobs
- A $140 million electricity transformer factory from Prolec-GE Waukesh in North Carolina, which could create 330 jobs
If completed, the eight new projects announced in May would create at least 1,310 permanent jobs if they come to fruition.
So far in 2025, Republican districts have claimed the majority of clean energy activity: 62% of project announcements, 71% of jobs, and 82% of investment.
But if Congress repeals clean energy tax credits, everyone will feel the impact. The Clean Energy Buyers Association estimates households could pay $110 more a year for electricity, and businesses could see energy costs spike by 10% or more.
Since the Inflation Reduction Act passed in August 2022, 397 major clean energy projects have been announced across 42 states and Puerto Rico. These projects total nearly $132 billion in planned investment and 123,000 permanent jobs. But 53 have already been canceled, closed, or scaled back, taking $18.2 billion and 21,000 jobs with them.
