NEW FRENCH REVOLUTION

Voxan has achieved "a major revolution in French motorcycle history" with the presentation of an ultra-powerful electric machine, radically innovative in its technology and its architecture. The manufacturer claims the Wattman shows the new techniques and stylistic direction of the brand, with avant-garde technologies in the field of electric mobility and “a design that anticipates the shape of bikes to come”. 

Voxan Wattman - 200 HP

With 200 HP and an instantaneous torque of 200Nm up to 10,500 rpm, Wattman is said to be the world's most powerful electric motorcycle. Belt-driven, it reaches 160km/h (100mph) in 5.9 seconds.

The Wattman is built around its battery pack, the frame being replaced by an ultra-rigid exoskeleton, integrating all the components of the powertrain. “This results in a very pure motorcycle without a visible technical feature,” says designer Sacha Lakic. "This aluminium exoskeleton, which contains the battery, is the motorcycle’s signature. You can tell from this design that it is an electric machine."

The bike features charges to 80% in less than 30 minutes thanks to a "COMBO II" socket, the European quick charge standard. It can also be plugged to a standard household socket, thanks to its integrated charger.

Its ultra-compact 12.8kWh battery ensures 180 km of range.

Primarily intended for an exclusive international clientele seeking innovation, the Wattman will be hand-assembled in France, at the Solesmes (Sarthe) Electric Vehicle Manufacture.
