Ski mountaineering – aka skimo – is an epic sport in which skiers make their way up to the summit of a mountain, then downhill-ski back to the base. The E-Skimo system is designed to make the trip up easier, by putting motorized treads on the skis.

Ultraviolette’s forthcoming electric superbike, the F99 has achieved an Indian quarter-mile record of 10.712 seconds. It sets the stage for the brand’s global ambitions as it begins retail sales in Europe. A US release might not be too far off either.

Pushing heavy loads in a wheelbarrow may be easier than carrying them, but it can certainly still be a plenty difficult task. The eBarrow Kit was designed with that fact in mind, as it electrifies existing wheelbarrows.

In a bid to draw in more riders and make e-motos more accessible, Zero has unveiled a new 'All Access' plan. At its core are six newly developed motorcycles, all priced under $10,000. The first two models from this pack were unveiled at EICMA 2024.

In what shouldn't come as a surprise to anyone, electric-assist baby strollers are now a thing. And if you're wishing that your old-school manual stroller had a motor … well, the Easy-Way kit is designed to give it one.

Two major high-performance electric motorcycle makers have filed for bankruptcy within as many days: Italian maker Energica, and FUELL, the American electric two-wheeler company. Which leaves the question: are EV motos before their time?

Surgical stitches are good for helping wounds heal, but they can pop open with too much movement. Scientists have now turned that weakness into a strength, developing stitches that generate an electric charge when stretched and heal wounds faster.

Pulled wagons are great for moving stuff around, but tackling heavier loads can be exhausting. Startup Litefar has launched the Orion, a motorized cargo wagon with remote control that can haul up to 180 lb of gear so you don't have to.

There's little doubt that electric dirt bikes will eventually replace gas-powered ones, much like four-strokes replaced two-strokes. The XE4 by Xtreme Electric MX (XEMX) converts Yamaha 250 and 450 YZF/YZFX to high-powered electrics.

Ultraviolette has taken the wraps off the all-new F99, branding it India’s first ever superbike. Drawing its design inspiration from supersonic jets, the bike can go from standstill to 60 mph in 3 seconds on the way to its claimed top speed.

In what shouldn't really come as a surprise, there are now a few different companies offering electric inline skates (aka rollerblades). The AtmosGear skates are unique, however, in that their battery is worn on the user's waist.

NASA scientists have discovered a third global energy field around Earth. Known as the ambipolar electric field, this force drives charged particles into space above the poles and joins the known gravity and electromagnetic fields.
