# Hubless Electric Motorcycles The RMK E2 Electric Motorcycle Features Striking Design Elements By Justin Lam | Published 2018-07-30 | Autos Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/e2-electric-motorcycle References: [uncrate](https://uncrate.com/rmk-e2-electric-motorcycle/) & [rmkvehicles](https://www.rmkvehicles.com/) RMK is a new Finnish start-up dedicated to electric vehicles and its first E2 electric motorcycle is a fairly ambitious endeavor. Designed with a minimalist aesthetic, the electric vehicle ditches the traditional chain drive for a [hub-mounted electric motor](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/verge-next-platform). This change for the powertrain helps give the E2 electric motorcycle its distinct visual stylings. The electric capabilities of the bike allow it to travel 200 to 300km on a single charge and be charged from completely empty in just two to three hours. The motor also features a computational peak output of 50kw, providing torque of 320nm. The speed is limited to 160km/h. Another distinct design element of the E2 electric motorcycle lies in its [non-centered rim](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/verge-ts-pro-motorcycle). This feature for the wheel allows the motor to be directly integrated into the rim and connected naturally to the frame of the bike. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 5.7/10 - Popularity: 85% | Activity: 79% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 70% men, 30% 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 ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Hubless Electric Motorcycles:** The trend of hubless electric motorcycles presents opportunities for innovative powertrain design and unique visual aesthetics. - **Minimalist Aesthetic:** The minimalist aesthetic trend in electric vehicles provides opportunities for sleek and clean designs that stand out. - **Fast Charging Technology:** The trend of fast charging technology in electric motorcycles creates opportunities for convenient and efficient charging experiences. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Electric Vehicle Manufacturing:** The electric vehicle manufacturing industry can leverage the hubless electric motorcycle trend to create innovative and visually striking vehicles. - **Automotive Design:** The automotive design industry can explore the minimalist aesthetic trend to create visually appealing and streamlined electric vehicle designs. - **Charging Infrastructure:** The charging infrastructure industry can adapt to the fast charging technology trend in electric motorcycles by developing advanced charging solutions for quicker and more convenient charging. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Hubless Electric Motorcycles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/verge-ts-ultra.md) - [Naked Electric Motorbikes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/naked-electric-motorbikes.md) - [Angular Electric Motorbikes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ecodryft.md) - [HIgh-Torque Electric Motorcycles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/verge-ts-pro.md) - [Performance-Pushing E-Motorbikes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ampx.md) - [Retro-Style Electric Motorbikes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rm1s.md) - [High-Performance Electric Motorcycles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/huge-moto-srx-concept-motorcycle.md) - [Dynamic Electric Motorbikes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dynamic-electric-motorbikes.md) - [Stylish Electric Motorbikes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nkd-x.md)
