Ethec Electric Motorcycle
Designed by 16 engineering and design students from ETH Zurich and the Zurich University of the Arts, the Ethec electric motorcycle promises to take two-wheeled electric mobility out of the city and into the country. The 15 kWh battery gives the Ethec 250 miles of range, and a sophisticated air and oil cooling system claims to keep it at peak performance for years to come. The bike has front and rear hub-mounted motors, but performance isn't what they're after — peak output is about 67 horsepower. Despite the slightly strange looks, the Ethec is a study of what the future of two-wheeled electric mobility can offer.
