Comment on Electric motorcycles with solid-state batteries seem to be coming soon.
rumba@piefed.zip 3 days agoPulled the CC data from downsub, asked AI to summarize, then reviewed the CC to make sure it was accurate.
It’s mostly fluff centered around data about a couple of new packs and claimed ranges.
20 kWh Pack
- Range: 350 km
- Charging power: Up to 100 kW
- Adds 200 km of range in 10 minutes
30 kWh Solid‑State Pack
- Range: 600 km on a single charge
- Charging power: Up to 200 kW
- Adds 300 km of range in under 10 minutes
Claims to be largest motorcycle battery of its kind
SO they’re decently large, can charge quickly, I’d be a bit surprised if they were getting those actual ranges in real-world scenarios.

They are also 38,000 euro for the base model bike.

That is wildly expensive for a emotercycle, but maybe not if they are legitimate solid state.

Why pay for a fast charging bike AND a huge battery. If it had a 10kwhr battery, it would get the range of most ICE bikes and charge in 4 minutes. It’s just stupid.

Even then, it’s still wildly expensive if you compare it to other ICE motorcycles with similar specs.
If a random person could buy three bikes that would outperform it for same price as one of these, then I just don’t see how the market can support it

The Indian Ultraviolette is <$5000.
