'Verge,' the Finland-based manufacturer of innovative vehicles, announced that its 'Verge TS' motorcycle is entering mass production. This motorcycle is noteworthy for its drive system that incorporates a hubless rear wheel. Instead of featuring spokes and a hub, the rear wheel is powered through electromagnetic repulsion that pushes on the rim of the wheel to rotate it, thus propelling the motorcycle forward.
Aside from its unique drive system, the Verge TS has high-end specifications for an electric motorcycle. The bike features a 136-horsepower engine, an acceleration of 0-62 in four seconds, and a maximum speed of approximately 111 miles per hour. Additionally, the bike is powered by a massive 20.2 kilowatt-hour battery that can power it for nearly 200 miles before needing to charge.
