Yamaha launches the EC-03 electic bike

The rush to release elctric vehicles continues, with Yamaha showing off its new electric bike the EC-03 at the recent INTERMOT motorcycle show in Cologne.

The EC-03 has a choice of two motor modes. When riders need to boost their speed, they can switch from Standard mode to a special Power mode at the touch of a button.

Due to its lightweight build and slim proportions, the EC-03 can also be carried in a car or caravan.

The EC-03 will be in Yamaha dealers throughout Europe from the beginning of 2011.

Ride safe
