'Can-Am,' the motorcycle brand founded in 1971 as a subsidiary of Bombardier, announced the release of the 'Can-Am Origin' and 'Can-Am Pulse' electric motorcycles. With the release of these two bikes, Can-Am is attempting to reclaim its spot as a household name and the first choice for motorbike-driving customers.
Can-Am did not release specific performance details on the e-motorbike, such as the size of the battery or the power output of the engine, but the company did unveil the physical design of each model, while also adding that they will be capable of achieving "highway speeds." The Can-Am Origin features an elongated sports-style frame with a high seat, large wheels, seemingly capable suspension systems, and a more energetic feel, while the Can-Am Pulse approaches the other half of the motorbike market. The Pulse has smaller wheels designed for relaxing rides on roads, and a lowered frame that results in more comfortable, ergonomic riding at the cost of off-roading performance.
