Electric Motors

The all-new Kamingo is a split-component add-on electric drive that instantly turns a standard bicycle into a pedal-assist ebike. In fact, it's designed for such quick, seamless plug-and-play, riders can swap it in and out mid-ride.

The race is on to create the smallest, lightest ebike drive. An innovative, new contender, the Magnetic Gear Motor from Star Union swaps out physical gears in favor of a magnetic gear system that compacts the core while cutting friction.

Scientists at KIST have built a working electric motor with metal-free windings, replacing copper entirely. It's much lighter and could reshape the future of EVs, drones, and electric aircraft.

The TQ HPR50 electric motor drive has underpinned some of the lightest, most inconspicuous electric bikes out there. TQ takes the next step forward with the HPR60, which boosts power even higher while putting on only a fraction of a pound.

Maeving is one of the rare EV manufacturers that has remained committed to traditional motorcycle design. The company's new limited-edition café racer, the RM1S Blackout, is its latest testament to that ethos.

Remigo launched its slim, portable e-outboard in the US just a few weeks back, and now it's adding a powerful accessory to the lineup. The new RemigoOne remote control lets the small e-boat captain control the throttle from anywhere on the vessel.

Before getting its blade-like 1000 portable outboard to the US market, Temo announced its presence with another clever mobile e-drive. The Temo 450 Carbon carries like a canoe paddle but tasks an integrated prop drive with delivering up to 200 watts.

YASA adds to the growing hype around axial flux electric motors, announcing the opening of a "super factory" to boost production. The potent pancake motors will find their way into world-class vehicles from marques like Lamborghini.

Bosch calls the new CX-R ebike motor its highest quality drive unit to date, high self-praise from one of the world's largest e-drive suppliers. The new magnesium-housed motor cranks torque and power to the top of the line and adds a new "race" mode.

There's no replacement for displacement. An adage that's been around as long as the combustion engine, really. But these age-old sayings don't really apply anymore when it comes to electric motors.

You either love or hate Verge's hubless donut-shaped rear wheel. But what if most of the future electric motos were to sport the same tech? Well, that may soon turn out to be true, with Verge commercializing its electric tech for industry-wide use.

The Lamborghini Huracan finally has a successor, and boy, is it a good one! Called the Temerario, which translates to “reckless” in English, it's a plug-in hybrid marking the evolution of the raging bull. Safe to say, the car has big shoes to fill.
