Hubless, Limitless: Verge Hits the Cali Streets

For the last month, Verge Motorcycles has been turning heads stateside with the opening of two flagship retail showrooms in California—bringing their radically designed, high-performance electric motorcycles directly to U.S. riders.

Starting June 1, Verge opened the doors to its Century City Westfield storefront in Los Angeles, followed by the Westfield Valley Fair location in San Jose on June 6. These aren't just pop-ups or trade booths—these are full-on Verge-branded spaces where riders can get hands-on with Verge’s machines, ask real questions, and book test rides.

Why It Matters for Riders

Verge California Edition

This is a major move—not just for Verge, but for the e-moto industry in the U.S. Having dedicated physical showrooms in California makes Verge one of the few boutique electric motorcycle makers to invest in direct retail infrastructure in North America. That means U.S. riders can experience the bikes first-hand, not just through review videos or word-of-mouth from trade expos.

The performance numbers speak to Verge’s serious engineering chops: 0–60 in 3.5 seconds, a 124 mph top speed, and high-end components from Brembo and Öhlins. Plus, with fast charging supported by both CCS and Tesla’s NACS standard, Verge is making sure you’re not stuck looking for charging adapters. This is a brand aiming for a premium ride experience and real-world practicality—with a head-turning aesthetic no other e-moto matches.

Final Thoughts

Verge’s California expansion isn’t just a foot in the door—it’s a full-throttle launch. From the tech-forward design to their retail-first approach, Verge is clearly positioning itself as a future leader in the high-performance electric motorcycle space. If you’re into torque monsters with sci-fi styling and everyday usability, Verge just gave U.S. riders a front-row seat—and a test ride slot.

Ride safe, folks.
