# Electric Alternating Motorbikes The 2ICE by Ramon Ramirez Can Transform on Cue By JDurhamII | Published 2011-02-16 | Autos Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/2ice-alternating-motorbikes References: [designbuzz](http://www.designbuzz.com/entry/2ice-for-a-scenic-and-swappable-ride/) & [michelinchallengedesign](http://www.michelinchallengedesign.com/MCD_2011/mcd_2011_gallery_d04.php) The 2ICE concept by Ramon Ramirez is nothing is a [motorcycle reminiscent of the batpod](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/c6) in the hit movie The Dark Knight that can can be transformed into a [two person scooter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/redux). Far from the design of a Vespa, this particular concept embodies beauty, eco-friendliness and new technologies as this particular [electric vehicle](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ethunder) doesn't need to be plugged in. It charges as it goes and stores that energy into a battery. It also uses electromagnetic braking capabilities. While aimed at being green and also introducing new technologies, the clear format is simple. Create a nice green vehicle that doesn't take away from the scenic things about motoring. The designer of the 2ICE concept wants the motoring experience to be about wind and being free. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 5.3/10 - Popularity: 71% | Activity: 81% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 70% men, 30% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Autos](https://www.trendhunter.com/autos) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Electric Motorbikes:** The increasing demand for eco-friendly and innovative modes of transport presents an opportunity for disruptive electric motorbike technology. - **Transformable Vehicles:** The popularity of flexible and adaptable vehicles like the 2ICE presents an opportunity to create new designs and technologies for transforming vehicles. - **Wireless Charging:** The emergence of wireless charging in electric motorbikes presents new opportunities for companies to innovate in the charging sector. ### Where This Applies - **Automotive:** Automotive companies could leverage the growing demand for eco-friendly and innovative vehicles by investing in electric motorbike technology. - **Transportation:** Transformable vehicles offer new possibilities for public transport and ride-sharing companies, who could benefit from increased flexibility and adaptability of vehicles. - **Energy:** The adoption of wireless charging in electric motorbikes presents a new avenue for energy sector players to innovate and potentially capitalize on emerging technology. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Hybrid Design Electric Motorcycles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/spirit-electric-motorcycle.md) - [Convertible Electric Bike Concepts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gravity-electric-bicycle.md) - [Electric Cafe Racer Concepts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hyundai-ioniq-q.md) - [Hybrid Design Electric Motorcycles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/instinct-electric-motorcycle.md) - [Shapeshifting Electric Motorbikes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sony-x-honda-evolve.md) - [Angular Electric Motorbike Concepts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/polestar-cp1-concept.md) - [Manga-Influenced Electric Motorcycles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/2025-ichiban-electric-motorcycle.md) - [60s-Inspired Electric Superbikes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/robert-turner.md) - [Two-Wheeled EV Concepts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/twowheeled-electric-car.md)
