That's pretty impressive, but it doesn't beat other competitors in the area — the STORM Pulse bike can go almost as far as a Tesla on a single charge, and it was created by students at Eindhoven University of Technology in the Netherlands.

The bike does not have a gearbox or clutch. Rather, it rides with a ride-by-wire system.

The ride-by-wire system gives the rider greater control when adjusting acceleration and deceleration. Drivers can also utilize a "coasting" feature with it, which is a neutral position between acceleration and regeneration.
