The Sustainable Electric Motorcycle Zapp i300 Comes With Two Batteries That Provide a Range Of Up To 60 Km With Just One Charge

Although it was first presented to the public during the summer of 2017, its creative lines have already won design awards. Zapp, a UK-based company, introduced one of its first products, a sustainable electric motorcycle called i300, which combines speed with simple charging.

The Zapp i300 received the “Excellent Product Form” award from the German Design Awards 2023 in the motorcycles category. This was partly due to the unique design of its frame, which was shaped like a Z.

The i300 is a sustainable urban electric motorcycle, designed by a group of automotive and motorcycle industry experts, to offer performance that can surpass internal combustion engine models.

Regarding its level of independence, the sustainable electric motorcycle Zapp i300 can travel a distance of up to 60 kilometers without needing a charge, which is considered good range.

Zapp offers a wide variety of customization options for potential consumers of the new i300 electric motorcycle. These alternatives include various colors for the front panel and seat, as well as several accessories. As a result, there are very few cases where two motorcycles are identical.

The costs of the i300 start at £5,750 (about R$ 37,000, in direct conversion) when purchased online on Zapp’s website. This amount corresponds to the version partially built with recycled plastic produced from trash collected from the sea.
