Oregon-based Brammo Motorsports introduces Enertia, an eco-vehicle that delivers a sleeker option for guilt free transportation. Enertia is a 100% electric motorcycle that is efficient and lightweight. This zero emission bike will appeal to true motor enthusiasts and novices since it is designed from the ground up with the rider in mind. The motorbike has a sturdy, narrow body that optimizes handling at low and high speeds while maneuvering through cramped urban streets. Equipped with an H-shaped carbon fiber monocoque chassis, the same type used in Formula One race cars, the bike maintains its compact shape while delivering excellent stiffness and mass centralization. The chassis also conceals the bike's six lithium-iron phosphate batteries, a departure from standard lithium-ion batteries that have high rupture and explosion risks. Fully charged in under 3 hours, Enertia can store energy for up to 45 miles and sprint from 0 to 30 mph in just 3.8 seconds.
