What happens when you give a step-through scooter 894Nm at the rear wheel? Horwin's answer is the Senmenti ONE.

The HORWIN SENMENTI 0NE is one of the more ambitious electric motorcycles on the market, combining a 16.9 kWh battery, 74 kW of peak power and a claimed 200 km/h top speed with a surprisingly long list of rider-assistance and connected technology.

Built to order in New Zealand, the Streetdog XR combines an 88 kg kerb weight with a removable 2.9 kWh battery, 30 litres of integrated storage and a claimed real-world range of 60–80 km. It's still a simple twist-and-go machine, but with an 85 km/h top speed and motorcycle licensing required, the XR sits firmly in motorcycle territory.
