Hands On Review: Brammo Enertia Electric Motorcycle (Video)

by Chad Mumm on June 9, 2009 at 01:27 PM


We recently had a chance to take our cameras and check out the new Brammo Enertia electric motorcycle, only the second one to hit the market and sure to please most Earth-loving urban hipsters. Our man Tim Stevens took the high-tech wunderbike to the streets of lower Manhattan for a little envy-inducing, 13.7-horsepower jaunt to your local Starbucks. For $11,995, you can terrorize your burg at a latté-foaming 50mph and look infinitely more hardcore than those tricks on a Vespa. It's the perfect complement to your faux-leather, vegan Heck's Angels jacket.

The bike is can be pre-ordered at the Enertia site (and will be available in early July at West Coast Best Buy stores, too). Check out Engadget for Tim's full review.
