Enertia - The Electric Motorcycle That Could Change the Way YOU Travel

This plug-in two-wheeler has a driving range of about 50 miles,

For our ride, the power level was set to the 40% minimum, for which Brammo claims a realistic range of 40 to 50 miles between charges (far exceeding the 29-mile average U.S. commute).

After a completely uneventful, serenely quiet and emission-free 30-mile loop around Portland, (where it truly felt as if I were driving in the future), we returned the bike to Brammo with the gauges still showing 30 percent battery range available.

Brammo has just begun taking online orders in the U.S. for a limited edition "Carbon" model ($14,995), set for delivery in the first quarter of 2008. You can also reserve the standard model ($11,995) which is expected to reach full-scale production by the third quarter of next year. Figure less than $300 for delivery to your door.
