On a crisp March morning in London, Verge Motorcycles etched its name into the annals of electric motorcycling history. My guess is this Verge Motorcycles record will stand for a while.
Their TS Pro model, a marvel of Finnish engineering, embarked on a journey that would culminate in a Guinness World Record for the longest distance traveled by an electric motorcycle on a single charge—310.6 kilometers, to be precise.
Verge Motorcycles Record Shows Its Expertise
The TS Pro isn’t your typical two-wheeler. Its distinctive hubless rear wheel houses an integrated rim motor, delivering a staggering 1200 Nm of torque.
This design not only turns heads but also eliminates unnecessary moving parts, enhancing efficiency and reliability. With a range of up to 233 miles and a fast-charging capability that juices up 80% in just 25 minutes, the TS Pro is as practical as it is revolutionary.
The record-setting ride wasn’t a high-speed dash but a calculated endeavor through London’s urban landscape, maximizing the bike’s regenerative braking and energy conservation features. Verge’s Chief Marketing Officer, Lauri Laukkanen, emphasized that this achievement wasn’t merely about distance but a testament to the company’s commitment to pushing technological boundaries and redefining what’s possible in electric mobility.
As the world accelerates towards a sustainable future, Verge Motorcycles stands at the forefront, proving that electric motorcycles can deliver both performance and endurance. This record isn’t just a number; it’s a bold statement that the electric revolution is not only imminent but already underway.
