Electric bikes are often perceived by many people as nerdy vehicles to ride around on, but this is one perception that is being mercilessly smashed to the ground by the [Moto Parilla Carbon](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/moto-machines), a supremely rugged and heavy-duty electric bike that is designed to conquer the asphalt as well as the dirt.

Appropriately coined an '[SUV e-bike](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/acer-predator-eranger)', this electric bike is equipped with a throttle that allows you to give your legs a rest if you happen to be navigating around treacherous and challenging terrain. The bike is powered by either a 250-watt or 500-watt engine depending on how much money you're willing to spend, and features a frame that is sturdy yet lightweight.

By blending together ultra-reliable structuring and engine specs with an eye-catching design, the Moto Parilla Carbon proves that the electric bike can absolutely be a dirt riding weapon even though it's just as comfortable on the urban streets.
