“It’s an honour tor share such recognition with manufacturers like Ferrari, Polestar, Honda Auto Japan and Yamaha Motor Europe N.V. It’s true that in just 3 years we have turned a sketch into a product, and to be recognised in this way is such an achievement. This will give the team even more “energy” to continue our journey to become a globally recognised electric motorcycle manufacturer that stands out from the rest. An amazing way to begin 2021 with so much more to come,” the company said in a statement.
