Could the Brammo brand of electric motorcycles be coming to Europe? The American company brought over a couple of models to show at the 2010 EICMA show, creating curiosity for many who had their first chance to get up-close to these bikes.
The Brammo Empulse electric superbike was on display, as was the Brammo Enertia Plus, designed more for urban use than track racing.
The world of electric cars and motorcycles is somewhat of a paradox, with Europe a big player in the field of developing electric cars, whereas the old continent seems to have left two-wheeled electric experiments to the Americans.
The presence of Brammo at the EICMA show would seem to indicate that a possible presence on the European market is on the cards for the future.
There will be some work to do to improve the style of the bikes, bringing them up to the design standards of Europe, but we’d welcome a serious electric bike presence on this market.
