Lambda Scorpii: Singapore’s Next-Gen e-Moto Poised to Make Waves in Europe

If you're searching for an e-commuter that prioritises rider-centric engineering, we may have the answer. Singapore's own EV pioneer, Scorpio Electric, is preparing to launch its flagship electric motorcycle, the Lambda Scorpii (LS).

While it hasn’t hit showrooms yet, the LS is already generating buzz for being the first e-moto fully designed and engineered in Singapore to snag EU Whole-Vehicle Type-Approval (WVTA). That’s no small feat — this means the Lambda Scorpii ticks all the boxes for European safety, emissions, and technical standards, opening doors for a truly global rollout.

What We Know So Far: Specs and Features

While Scorpio Electric remains tight-lipped on some details, here’s the official lowdown on the LS’s specs:

• Top Speed: 105 km/h (about 65 mph)

• Range:

  • 96 km (59miles) WMTC cycle

  • 125 km (77miles) steady at 40 km/h (25mph)

• Acceleration: 0–50 km/h (31mph) in 3.8 seconds

• Battery: 72V, 5 kWh NMC lithium-ion pack (Samsung SDI cells)

• Charging: Type 2 connector, 20–80% in 2 hours

This setup positions the Lambda Scorpii as a versatile urban commuter that can handle a quick blast on faster roads but is still nimble enough for city traffic. The single-sided swingarm and clean design hint at a modern, premium build quality—a step up from the usual entry-level e-scooter fare.

Designed from the Ground Up

Unlike many electric motorcycles built by adapting internal combustion platforms, Scorpio Electric has developed the Lambda Scorpii from scratch. That means every aspect — from chassis dynamics to software integration — is tailored for the electric drivetrain and rider experience. This clean-sheet approach is crucial for squeezing the most out of the battery, weight distribution, and ride feel.

The company emphasizes a smart, integrated and connected user interface via the 7-inch TFT display — essential for today’s riders who want both performance and tech in one package. While we're not certain about the specifics, we anticipate a CanBus system that will provide ride metrics, assist with fault diagnosis, and possibly allow for settings adjustments.

What This Means Globally

With the EU’s WVTA certification locked in, the Lambda Scorpii is set to enter a key market where regulations can be tough for new players. This includes the UK, where regulations currently still follow European guidance. For readers in these regions, this means a fresh alternative to the usual electric motorcycles on offer, with a distinct blend of Asian design sensibility and global engineering standards. If you're located in other areas, don't be disheartened. Europe is often a strong starting point for international brands wishing to expand globally, although we have no confirmed details about interest or timeline on this. So we're in for a watch-and-wait session.

A Quick Look at Scorpio Electric

Founded in 2017, Scorpio Electric made waves as Singapore’s first electric motorcycle brand. Their vision? To be a global leader in premium electric two-wheelers that combine sleek design, cutting-edge tech, and sustainability. The Lambda Scorpii is their flagship effort to bring that vision to life at scale — a smart, capable machine built for the realities of modern urban mobility and beyond.

More Than Just Another Urban Scooter?

On paper, the Lambda Scorpii’s spec sheet could fool you into thinking it’s simply another mid-powered city runabout. But a closer look shows Scorpio Electric is aiming for more than point-A-to-B convenience. The premium single-sided swingarm, tuned suspension, and responsive e-throttle speak to a bike designed with rider engagement in mind, not just utility.

This isn’t a stripped-down commuter with a token display—it’s been built from scratch as a cohesive electric platform. The frame geometry, component choices, and user interface have all been engineered in-house to balance nimbleness with stability. That gives it a sharper, more connected ride feel than the average urban scooter, while still keeping the practical range and charging times city riders need.

The Verdict

While the Lambda Scorpii isn’t available just yet, the signs are promising. With competitive specs, full EU approval, and a design that speaks to both style and substance, Scorpio Electric is positioning itself as a serious contender in the global electric motorcycle landscape.

Ride safe, folks.
