Lightning is heading back to the Bonneville Salt Flats with unfinished business and a sharper brief than last time: build a next-generation EV platform capable of more than 600 hp and keep it stable when everything is trying to tear it apart.

Avenrà CEO Paul Cummins has told BCB he lost control of his EVO this weekend during a UK rideout that didn’t go to plan. Not a speed test or stunt attempt, just a roundabout, a diesel spill, and the kind of surface that turns grip into guesswork.

We dive into the Savic C-Series. An 80kW Australian electric café racer blending premium hardware, modern EV tech, and limited-production exclusivity.

Beachman are setting their sights on Europe, with France lined up as the first proper test bed in the Canadian e-moto builder’s push for homologation and road-legal sales.

Urban delivery has a problem: scooters that run out of storage, and vans that run out of space. Add in fuel prices and wasted capacity, and that problem now costs the industry millions.

Donut are back and the latest VTT test results are in. This time the focus shifts to something a lot less glamorous than charging speed or headline power figures. It’s swelling.

LiveWire just showed a sharp sales jump in Q1 2026 after cutting prices across its line-up. Could this be the biggest reality check facing the e-moto sector in 2026?

NOVUS has started handing over the first production units of its ONE Founders Edition, marking the point where a long-running concept finally steps out of prototype territory and into customer garages.

While we’re all waiting for the S4 Honcho to finally break cover at dealerships, LiveWire’s been back in the garage doing a bit of housekeeping. The Milwaukee brand has quietly tidied up its website and sharpened up the S2 app experience. A clear sign the electric outfit’s getting its tools organised before the next bike lands.

Maeving says it’s now the UK’s best-selling electric motorcycle brand, citing March 2026 MCIA registration data. Those brand-level figures aren’t publicly broken out, so claims like this are hard to independently verify. But that’s not really the point.
