that was an older model though.
Comment on Electric motorcycles with solid-state batteries seem to be coming soon.
dublet@lemmy.world 3 days agoI think it’s irresponsible of the Verge to tout an electric motorcycle’s range as “up to 600km”. It’s absolute fantasy.
Reached 310.69km with 7% charge on the 20.2kWh battery remaining during a challenge in London.

It took 16 hours though, so that works out to around 19km/h or 12mph. 🐌

Yes so even gaming this by driving very slowly, the range isn’t even close

The 20KwH is the low end battery which they rate at 350Km of range. The high end battery is 33KwH.

Yes, assuming a linear scaling, 33kWh would get you 506km with some percentage available.
realitista@lemmus.org 2 days ago
They did still have 7% left though. So more like 540km…

Some very rough math suggests ~545km range.
