Imagine pedalling up a hill as comfortably as riding down, that s what the e-bike…
In fact they are faster than gas powered karts, with immediate acceleration, greater torque, and 20HP versus 6.5HP to 9HP of their gas counterparts. GPK’s Italian engineered karts can reach speeds of up to 85 KPH, however it would be impossible to reach such speeds indoors at any facility. How long can the electric karts last?

This weekend, the Turbo goes on sale at Specialized dealers in the U.S. How’s that possible? No, they…
From what you read and hear, you might think that the end of the internal combustion is imminent. It isn’t. And here’s why: Despite the hype, most people don’t choose to drive electric vehicles.

When I was a kid, the Big Wheel endgame was to pedal down the driveway, then peel out in a Mario Kart-esque sliding turn. That typically meant more skinned chins and elbows than glory.

Capable of doing 0-to-60 mph in under five seconds and a top speed of 80 mph, Bosch s new all-electric go-kart is about to change the kart racing industry. That s because, until now, gasoline-powered karts have been the industry standard for kart racing. The e-kart prototype isn t just a glorified golf cart; it was designed from scratch as an EV. Heck, it even has…
