At the Motor Bike Expo 2026 in Verona, GR1T Motorcycles – the crew behind the G1S and G1X – pulled the covers off their latest play: the Blackout Edition - An evolution of the G1 platform, billed as a dual-use machine for military, security, and civilian roles. It leans hard into the tactical end of the electric spectrum and comes with IR shielding.
Zero has just put the LS1 into full European distribution. If you’ve been watching this bike since we first ran eyes over it, now’s the part where you can actually point, nod and say “that’s the one.” Deliveries began rolling out to every Zero showroom across Europe this month.
Something very cool is happening in East Asia. Compass Rose, a Korean manufacturer, have revealed the Ciulator, and visually, it looks like it escaped from a 1965 Grand Prix paddock. Full fairing, narrow stance, low bars, and a tail that belongs under a race number board. At a glance, it promises clip-on drama and café racer intent.
Earlier this week, Land Moto launched their ADV — and yes, it landed a couple of days before we expected it. First impressions? Good. While it wears a proper ADV stance, LAND’s vision keeps that unmistakable LAND styling that’s helped them stand out from the crowd.
Let’s take a look at what’s new, what works, and what we think of this latest e-moto.
During AIMExpo2026, YVOLT quietly—but not that quietly—dropped the Surge V. It’s a 35 kW off-road electric pushing a claimed 948 Nm, packing a 4.3 kWh battery, and already hauling in a fistful of design awards. Visually, it ditches the raw, cluttered look we’ve come to expect from dirt bikes and goes its own way. Before we dig into the nitty-gritty, take a look at YVOLT’s video.
We live in a world where new battery tech gets announced almost weekly. Big OEMs promise solid-state by 2030, while everyone else throws around terms that all sound suspiciously similar — semi-solid, quasi-solid, LiFePO₄. Well, today Donut Lab dropped something that isn’t “coming soon.” It’s here, it’s real, and already powering production vehicles.
2026 is rolling in fast, and LiveWire has locked in their new S2 pricing structure. The headline is simple: lower prices, the same hardware, and fewer barriers for riders who’ve been watching from the side-lines.
The Can-Am Pulse is the road-going counterpart to the Origin, taking the same basic electric platform and putting it into a much more street-focused package. Instead of long-travel suspension and off-road hardware, the Pulse gets 17-inch wheels, road tyres and a lower riding position.
How how far can an electric motorcycle actually go? That depends on how the bike is tested, how fast you're riding and how much work you're asking the battery to do. We all know the game by now: big range number on the brochure, smaller number once you hand over your hard-earned cash and start riding the thing. The reason it keeps happening comes down to how electric two-wheelers are tested, and the maths gets pretty ugly once you leave the gentle, controlled world of the tes
