What should we make of this tweet?

Maybe Vectrix needs to do some counter attack to the likes of Zero and Brammo?

If the price is right... I might get it... But not for the 50.000 EUR, which was the initial price.

When I responded to their tweet this was their answer. So yeah seems like they have some plans to put it in production (if they can get the financing sorted...)

Re: Are they breathing new life into the Vectrix Superbike?

Most useless stat ever (for a self-proclaimed "super bike"):

Range up to 124 miles (200 km) on a single charge @ 25mph

Conversations you just don't hear:
spouse A says: "Honey, I'm just popping down to the store on my super bike"
spouse B says: "OK dear, but don't go over 25mph though"
spouse A says: "No worries"

C'mon guys, please get real with the range stats!!!!

Re: Are they breathing new life into the Vectrix Superbike?

The NiMH VX-1 range stat for 25mph(40km/h) was 105km. My VX1 does 70km at 70km/h, so my expectation is:
- 140km at 70km/h
- 70km at 100km/h

Not bad. How about a price? Does anyone have any information about the price?
