Montreal based company, Lito, revealed their electric motorcycle and they are setting the standards high for the competition.

The Lito Sora is also capable of reaching speeds of up to 200 km/h (125 mph) and is the first bike to feature an in-dash touch screen GPS system as well as allowing the rider to have control of the electronically adjustable ergonomics. The Sora also uses regenerative braking system and a CV transmission that allows the engine’s output to be efficient at a broader range of speed and allows the Sora to reach that top speed of 125 mph.
