It is the first viable 100% electric vehicle I've ever seen that doesn't represent a whole bunch of compromises on performance and style. Unlike the Segway, which was a solution looking for a problem in my book, this is something people can actually use: 62mph top speed. 0-50 in 6.8sec. Up to 70 miles on 34 ¢of electricity.

Vectrix is accepting pre-launch reservations for this bike on its website. I've been told that the US is considered to be a minor market relative to those in Europe, and I'm afraid that if we don't voice our support we won ’t see enough product allocated here to make a difference.
