Built by 'new kids on the block' Mission Motors and designed by Yves Béhar, the Mission One stands as the new benchmark for electric motorcycles.
With torque out the wazoo and a top speed most riders aren’t likely to reach, this futuristic bike is sure to be the hot bet for first place when it makes its race debut at the TTXGP – the world’s first clean emission grand prix – on June 12.
The first 50 bikes off the line will be sold as a special Limited Edition model, arriving at their owner's homes in 2010 for the princely sum of AUD$105,165.
If you’re not a Sheik or a genuine enthusiast, you’d best stand back. Mission Motors says the standard model will be more affordable, and will be announced later this year.
