Segway just smashed the accelerator pedal on youth motorsports, teaming up with indoor karting giant K1 Speed in a new partnership that blends electric micromobility with high-octane (high-electron?) thrills and fun.

When I first saw the Viribus SC5 electric trike, I figured it would be a budget-friendly utility trike with basic features and limited performance. I’ve tried a Viribus e-trike before, and while it got the job done, it was a fairly basic and entry level model. But this time, I was pleasantly surprised to find that the SC5 delivers more than just the basics.

I’ve been testing it now for various errands, grocery runs, and casual rides around the neighborhood. After logging some decent miles on it, here’s what I’ve learned about this three-wheeled e-bike, and why I think it’s a strong contender in the growing world of electric trikes.

BMW Motorrad just dropped a futuristic electric motorcycle concept that looks like it rolled straight out of a sci-fi movie and into a design studio. The new concept, called the BMW Motorrad Vision CE, is the company’s latest attempt to answer a question that’s been bouncing around for a while now: What should an electric BMW motorcycle actually look like?

Apparently, the answer is: not like anything else on the road.

Stark Future, the Spanish electric motorcycle maker that turned the off-road world on its head, just locked in a fresh round of funding, pushing its total capital raised past €100 million. And unlike the big, flashy VC rounds we usually see, this one came mostly from existing backers and a few hand-picked newcomers, including some heavy hitters from the MotoGP world.

First, it was e-bikes, offering an efficient, effective, and low-cost way for teens and just about everyone to zip around town, yet drawing the temper of suburban traditionalists. Now golf carts are the new public enemy number one in suburbia, at least if you ask the growing number of online groups where residents complain about these small electric vehicles “clogging” their streets.

But beyond the hand-wringing, golf carts and their more sophisticated cousins known as Neighborhood Electric Vehicles (NEVs) or Low Speed Vehicles (LSVs), are quietly becoming a popular alternative to cars for short trips around US cities and suburbs.

If you’ve been eyeing a LiveWire electric motorcycle but couldn’t justify the price tag, this might be your moment. LiveWire Group just launched a new “Twist & Go” promotion that drops prices on its entire S2 lineup by thousands of dollars – at least for a limited time.

If you’ve been holding out for an affordable electric bike with a Bosch mid-drive motor, your wait may finally be over. Raleigh has just launched a new version of its Captus electric bike, and it delivers the holy trinity of name-brand components, comfort-focused design, and a surprisingly low price.

What seemed like a too-good-to-be-true opportunity in micromobility has turned into a cautionary tale. The Lightning Shared Scooter Company (LSSC) lured investors with promises of leasing scooters in Asia, offering hefty daily returns to Western investors – often average folks instead of seasoned investors. But now regulators and watchdogs warn it was all a well‑orchestrated scam, leaving victims robbed of millions.

The Anthbot Genie 3000 brings automated mowing tech to your backyard without the need for old-fashioned perimeter wires. It has GPS-grade precision and AI-powered vision, and I got to check out how well it works. With a mix of impressive strengths and a few growing pains, it’s a compelling entrant in the smart‑lawn space worth a closer look.

In a move that underscores the growing instability in international e-bike trade, premium electric bike maker Riese & Müller has paused all e-bike shipments to the United States, citing unpredictable steel tariffs as the final straw.

The electric trike world just got a new heavyweight contender. Puckipuppy’s latest release, the Rottweiler, looks like it was built to haul, climb, and cruise with equal confidence. And with full suspension as well as specs like these, it’s hard not to take notice.

When I first got my hands on a Chinese electric mini-excavator, I thought it would be a fun little machine for digging a few holes and moving some dirt around. What I didn’t expect was just how useful and versatile it would become – and how often I’d reach for it for jobs that I never initially planned on tackling with a compact electric digger.

Police in the UK have confiscated what they say is the fastest electric bicycle they’ve ever seen, suggesting it was capable of reaching speeds of 83.2 MPH.

When it comes to folding bicycles, there’s one name in the game that deserves more credit than any other for putting these compact transportation machines on the map. Dahon has been behind some of the biggest innovations that have turned folding bicycles from quirky newcomers to mainstays of urban transportation. The company has offices in the US, Europe, and China. And it was the third I went to see, hopping a ride to Shenzhen to meet the company – and its maker – face to face.

Key Biscayne, a small barrier island off the coast of Miami, has become one of the only places in the United States where all electric bikes are completely banned, regardless of speed class, rider age, or motor power.

It might sound counterintuitive since we often hear stories about fire departments being called out because of an e-bike. But firefighters in Scottsdale, Arizona, are now using e-bikes on emergency calls for a highly particular reason.

When I first hopped on the new Priority Skyline Smart‑Shift e-bike, I wasn’t exactly sure what to expect. I’ve ridden dozens and dozens of commuter e-bikes, some fancier than others, but it’s rare to see something that feels this refined and has components like these, especially from a direct-to-consumer company that focuses on quality builds at affordable prices.

Just unveiled this month, Priority Bicycles calls it their most advanced e-bike ever, and after a few days riding it around the city, I can say they’re not just hyping it up. This thing is a seriously capable commuter machine packed with impressive tech, high-end components, and thoughtful design choices that blend into a surprisingly seamless ride.

BRP, the Canadian powersports giant behind names like Ski-Doo, Sea-Doo, and Can-Am, has just pulled the cover off the latest addition to its rapidly growing electric lineup: the 2026 Can-Am Outlander Electric ATV. Its impressive specs put it at the top of the performance charts in nearly every metric compared to the company’s gasoline-powered ATVs.

Electric bike and scooter safety is now part of the curriculum in some schools – and surprisingly, it’s happening in Florida.

Sometimes on Alibaba, you find something that makes you stop, scratch your head, and wonder whether the designer started with a golf cart and added a pickup truck bed… or started with a farm truck and grafted on the front half of a golf cart. Either way, the end result is this glorious mashup of country club chic and back-forty practicality.

Florida’s State Parks are stepping up their environmental and operational game, introducing a large fleet of powerful electric bikes to support park ranger patrols.
