- Saietta NGS – Saietta
Range: N/A
If exclusivity is something that’s important to you, then the NGS might be the right electric motorcycle for you. The NGS had a limited run (for now) of 100 motorcycles that were sold almost exclusively in the United Kingdom. The next generation NGS is likely going to undergo a similar run of motorcycles once it is ready. This kind of exclusivity has worked in many business formats and it should work for Saietta too. The high cost of each helps offset a lot of the engineering and assembly costs that they have to deal with.
The NGS is one of the bikes on here that features a radical change to motorcycle architecture. There are several companies that believe that with the introduction of electric energy, it’s time to change the motorcycle to better accommodate the change. It does make sense. Things can be moved around as there is far less moving parts in an electric motorcycle. This means that the vibration and balance are different.
The appearance of the motorcycle is both breathtaking and a little awkward. The 2016 model features lumps where you feel like there shouldn’t be lumps… Saietta has teased their upcoming model as well. It essentially looks like it should be carrying Batman, not a middle aged hedge fund manager. You can put in a huge amount of customization into your order as well. Saietta realizes that the kind of price they are asking requires a luxury bike and they let you put your stamp on it.
So if this bike is so intriguing, then why is it so low on the list? Part of it is that it’s too shrouded in mystery. Saietta hasn’t officially released the specifications on it. That’s why we can’t give you a confirmed or listed range for the electric motor. The other reason is the price. At 50,000 British Pounds, it’s one of the most expensive on the list, and assuming a bad exchange rate, it can be the absolute most expensive!
