New record for an electric motorcycle: 271 miles on one charge

An electric motorcycle has just set a new benchmark for range: in a road test, it covered 271 miles, or about 436 kilometers, on a single charge. The result beats the previous record and shows how quickly battery-powered two-wheelers are improving.

For Italian riders, it is a meaningful signal: range, often seen as the main weakness of electric motorcycles, is becoming less of a barrier. Charging times, price and everyday usability still matter, but the progress is clear.
