Electric Vehicles have an undeserved reputation for being nothing more than a passing fad. People commonly believe that these machines are slow or unreliable, however, this could be futher from the truth. Recently Playboy Magazine selected the Brammo Empulse R Electric Motorcycle as the Best Motorcycle of the Year! The Brammo is an impressive motorcycle, it can reach top speeds of about 105 miles per hour, boasts 47 ft lbs of torque, and sports an impressive Permanent Magnet AC Power 54 BHP engine. Hopefully, we will see a trend in electric and environmentally friendly vehicles really take off!
