The release of this exciting new bike features three models, all of which go over 100 mph. The difference between the three models (dubbed Empulse 6.0, Empulse 8.0 and Empulse 10.0) is the [average range](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/raptee-t30) that the bike can travel on a single charge, with the 10.0 maxing out at 100 miles on one charge. Another plus is that the Brammo Empulse is eligible for tax incentives, which means you could get some serious deals on your dream motorcycle. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.8/10 - Popularity: 41% | Activity: 94% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 90% men, 10% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, 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 ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Water-cooled Motorcycles:** Water-cooled motors in motorcycles offer enhanced performance and efficiency. - **Electric Motorcycles:** Electric motorcycles provide a sustainable and eco-friendly alternative to conventional bikes. - **Tax Incentives for Electric Vehicles:** Tax incentives for electric motorcycles create opportunities for cost savings and increased adoption. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Motorcycle Manufacturing:** Motorcycle manufacturers can explore the integration of water-cooled motors in their electric bike models. - **Electric Vehicle Industry:** The electric vehicle industry can capitalize on the growing demand for electric motorcycles with water-cooled motors. - **Automotive Retail:** Automotive retailers can leverage tax incentives for electric motorcycles to attract customers and boost sales. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Cutting-Edge Electric Motorcycles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/te1.md) - [Historic Electric Motorcycles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/can-am-origin.md) - [Ultra Long-Range E-Motorbikes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/motion-breeze.md) - [Performance-Pushing E-Motorbikes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ampx.md) - [Angular Electric Motorbikes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ecodryft.md) - [Hybrid Cooling Electric Scooters](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gogoro-pulse.md) - [Geared Electric Motorbikes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/matter-m1-bike.md) - [Hybrid Terrain Electric Motorcycles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/canam-origin-walkaround.md) - [Electric Sporting Bikes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/7000-d.md)
