DAB Motors, backed by Peugeot Motocycles, have just opened up their once limited-run DAB 1α to the wider global market — and you can get your hands on one from today.

Barcelona’s own Stark Future kicked off 2026 with a bang, reporting more than 200 % year-over-year growth in January — tripling sales in what Stark calls a softer overall market and setting a clear marker for where this brand thinks it’s headed.

Donut has released the first independent test results video from its solid-state validation program — and they’ve gone straight for one of the biggest pressure points in electric motorcycles: rapid charging.

Since their announcement of the Donut Battery, Donut Lab has taken a proper kicking. Scroll their socials — or ours — and you’ll see it: seasoned riders, early adopters, engineers, even OEM suits openly questioning whether this so-called solid-state breakthrough is the real deal or just another PowerPoint prototype. Today (20/02/26), Donut fired back.

Benzina Zero, the Aussie outfit behind one of the most widely adopted electric utility bikes on the planet, has just pulled the wraps off its latest concept: Turbina. And it’s not another commuter.

The Trinity Jupiter GT has landed with specs that shove it well beyond the usual city-only e-scooter brief. This isn’t a 45-mph urban dart. It’s a full-fat maxi-scooter built to run with real traffic, stretch its legs on faster roads and carry enough battery to kill range anxiety.

After years off the radar, FAMEL is back in the game with a full-electric play. For a lot of riders outside Iberia, the name might not ring bells. In Portugal? Different story. FAMEL is baked into the country’s two-wheel DNA. Now they’re betting that heritage still counts — even when the engine noise doesn’t.

Just days after our bankruptcy coverage, RGNT CEO Jonathan Åström contacted Buck City Biker with a breaking update: the boutique Swedish builder is back in business with immediate effect. Same captain at the helm, same crew, same mission — building small-batch electric bikes with classic lines and real-world usability.

Lightning just dropped something big — and it’s not a new bike. The California outfit has launched EDGE, a modular 800V electric architecture spun out of its race program, and it’s offering the platform to manufacturers across multiple sectors. Translation: Lightning wants to supply the guts behind future machines — including electric motorcycles — rather than just building its own.

In a sea of concept builds and back-room prototypes, Project Ares is one that actually deserves a second look. Real Motors is putting ride feel front and centre and backing it up with a design that stops you mid-scroll.
