The Most Anticipated Electric Motorcycles of 2021

It is well and truly time to accept the fact that electric motorcycles will become commonplace in the not too distant future. Advancements in battery technology are already producing impressive performance, but it’s not just the performance of these motorcycles that has piqued our attention. Due to the components used, designers are faced with unique challenges and opportunities which are producing some very interesting results.To get more news about davinci, you can visit davincimotor.com official website.

The larger motorcycle manufacturers have been slow to adopt an electric approach, but there are many independent brands ready to beat them to the punch. Today we’re taking a look at the most anticipated electric motorcycles of 2021.Tarform Motorcycles founder Taras Kravtchouk spent 3 years developing his ‘LUNA’ electric motorcycle prototype. Taking a completely sustainable design approach Taras utilised the latest in biodegradable and environmentally low impact materials to create his vision of future forward two wheeled transport. What stood out most to us about the Tarform LUNA prototype was its sleek, cafe racer influenced styling. Thankfully as Tarform has moved from prototype to production the LUNA hasn’t lost any of its retro charm.

At the end of 2020 Tarform began building their first series of electric motorcycles which will start rolling out of their Brooklyn facility in 2021. The production version of the LUNA is available in 2 differently styled versions which are aptly named the Scrambler Edition and Racer Edition. As their names imply each model features a look akin to either scrambler or cafe racer styling with the latter being our obvious favorite.

Aside from the bikes striking styling the LUNA boasts the latest in electric vehicle tech. Featuring 3 different rides modes the LUNA allows its user to optimise either range or performance to their liking. Using a household outlet or level 2 charger the bike can be charged to 80% capacity in only 50 minutes and a full charge can provide up to 120 miles of riding. If it’s thrills you’re seeking, the LUNA will launch you from 0 to 60 in around 3.8 seconds.
Sound is an important part of riding a motorcycle for the rider, other motorists and pedestrians. Rather than adding artificial sound effects Tarform have amplified the LUNA’s innate sounds using resonators. This results in a Blade Runner style sci-fi soundtrack that’s sure to put a smile on any riders face.

Tarform has also integrated safety tech we haven’t seen utilised on motorcycles before into the LUNA. The bike features a rear facing camera and inbuilt radar that alerts you of traffic in blind spots using vibrations in the seat. What impresses us the most though is that although many parts of this electric motorcycle are made using modern manufacturing techniques, LUNA’s alloy bodywork is all hand formed in Canada using traditional techniques.
