Brammo's 2011 Enertia Plus Electric Motorcycle Goes 80 Miles on a Single Charge

Adjust text size:

We love electric vehicles as much as everyone else, but we've got a special penchant for motorcycles, especially since there are fewer 2-wheel EVs available out there, and for this reason, we can't go by the Brammo 2011 Enertia Plus model without saying a few words about it.

The electric motorcycle features Brammo Power, the latest in Lithium-Ion battery technology, a 6.0 kWh Li-Ion power pack that offers an average range of around 80 miles / 128 km, which is also possible due to the fact that the vehicle is quite lightweight (324 lbs / 147 kg).

The Enertia Plus will also feature a number of enhancements including simplified charging, improved maneuverability, plus the option to add a center kickstand and rigid Givi side bags.

Customers can choose from four new colors: Eclipsed Black, Peacekeeping Blue, True Blood Red and Aluminium Silver.

Craig Bramscher, Founder and CEO of Brammo said, “I am delighted to announce the highly anticipated next member to our Enertia product line, the Enertia Plus.

Taking full advantage of the Brammo Power technology revealed initially in the Empulse, we are now able to offer consumers twice the range in our Enertia platform.

At just a $1000 price difference compared to the standard Enertia, we are offering a truly practical EV motorcycle with unprecedented consumer value.”

Brian Wismann, Director of Product Development added, “It’s truly been an amazing experience to watch the Enertia’s capabilities as a motorcycle grow in step with the latest developments in EV technology.

As with every Brammo product, the Enertia Plus represents the best of what we know.

When we started the Enertia development, I never would have believed such a huge leap in range was possible in such a short period of time.”

Of course, such a cool EV does come at a pretty hefty price point, the expected MSRP for the Enertia Plus when deliveries start next year being set at around $8,995.
