Arc Vector
Electric motorcycle
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Arc Vector is an electric motorcycle made by British motorcycle manufacturer Arc Vehicles from 2017 to 2019 and by the company's successor Arc V from 2022 to 2024. Both companies filed for bankruptcy, in 2019 and 2024 respectively. The later model sold a total of 11 units.[1] The Vector had an expected range of 200 mi (320 km) on a full charge for road driving and 120 mi (190 km) at high-speed, and an advertised top speed of 124 mph (200 km/h). It was noted for its hub-center steering which handled similarly to a conventional motorcycle fork. Its retail price was 90,000 GBP.[2]
