Evoke Urban Classic
The Evoke Urban Classic is built to be a commuter with looks that resemble those motorcycles from the past. In comparison to other models, this bike has some pretty impressive performance specs.
Urban Classic specs
| Top speed | 81 mph / 130 kph |
| 0-60 mph | 3 seconds |
| Range | 125 mi / 200 km |
| Wet weight | 395 lbs / 179 kg |
| Power | 25 hp / 19 kW |
| Torque | 86 ft-lb / 117 Nm |
| Price | $8,499 |
Evoke Urban S
The Evoke Urban S is claimed to be an Italian sport style motorcycle (I don’t really know how). Still, it doesn’t look bad at all even though it’s meant for commuters. It has an interesting reverse button feature that I haven’t seen on many motorcycles. This would be really handy to park on a hill.
Urban S specs
| Top speed | 81 mph / 130 kph |
| 0-60 mph | 3 seconds |
| Range | 125 mi / 200 km |
| Wet weight | 395 lbs / 179 kg |
| Power | 25 hp / 19 kW |
| Torque | 86 ft-lb / 117 Nm |
| Price | $7,999 |
Super Soco TC Max
The Super Soco TC Max is based on the less expensive TC model but has a motor that is separate from the wheel, unlike the integrated wheel motor of the TC. It also has a belt drive so you can be sure it’s quiet. The TC Max is also said to have shorter charging times.
TC Max specs
| Top speed | 59 mph / 95 kph |
| 0-60 mph | N/A |
| Range | 68 mi / 110 km |
| Wet weight | 229 lbs / 104 kg |
| Power | 4 hp / 3 kW |
| Torque | 133 ft-lb / 180 Nm |
| Price | $6,450 |
Zero FXS
The Zero FXS is meant to tare up tarmac and concrete pavements (but I don’t think you’re allowed to ride there). It’s really the FX model with street tires which makes it the third supermoto in this price category. There are some differences to the FXS like 17-inch rims front and back and a larger front brake disc but the price is exactly the same.
FXS specs
| Top speed | 85 mph / 137 kph |
| 0-60 mph | N/A |
| Range | 50 mi / 80 km |
| Wet weight | 251 lbs / 114 kg |
| Power | 27 hp / 20 kW |
| Torque | 78 ft-lb / 106 Nm |
| Price | $8,995 |
Zero FX
The Zero FX is a true dual-sport bike with its spoked rims and has proven to be good at off-road terrain as well. Though its range might not be able to get you from A to B more than twice, it’s actually meant to go ploughing through fields just to wind up back at A again.
FX specs
| Top speed | 85 mph / 137 kph |
| 0-60 mph | N/A |
| Range | 46 mi / 74 km |
| Wet weight | 247 lbs / 112 kg |
| Power | 27 hp / 20 kW |
| Torque | 78 ft-lb / 106 Nm |
| Price | $8,995 |

Final words
These electric motorcycles seem pretty good for their purpose but I still think we have some way to go regarding the range on most of them. Why? Because I like spending a whole day on my bike and some of you might relate.
Anyway, rapid chargers are all over the place these days, so maybe it’s not that big of a deal.
I always try to keep my articles interesting and informative. And I’m always thankful when they are shared on social media platforms or Pinterest.
