VMoto Enters Adventure Scooter Scene With CPx Explorer

VMoto is known for being a leader in the electric mobility industry. The company, based in Australia and China, offers a wide range of electric two-wheelers to meet the diverse needs of commuters and enthusiasts. At EICMA 2023, the company introduced its latest innovation, the CPx Explorer.

The “adventure scooter” segment has been gaining popularity in recent years, with more manufacturers entering the space. Honda led the way in 2016 with the X-ADV, and since then, many other manufacturers have followed suit. With the rise of electric motorcycles, electric two-wheelers are now following the trend of their internal-combustion counterparts. As a result, the new VMoto CPx Explorer is one of the earliest electric adventure scooters.

VMoto Enters Adventure Scooter Scene With CPx Explorer

Based on the APD Concept developed in collaboration with renowned design house Pininfarina, the CPx Explorer represents a significant advancement for VMoto. The scooter boasts distinctive LED lights, angular bodywork, and a tall windscreen for enhanced rider comfort. While maintaining its scooter identity, the CPx also includes convenient features such as a flat floorboard and a built-in rear luggage rack.

In terms of performance, the new VMoto CPx Explorer is equipped with an eight-kilowatt electric motor producing approximately 11 horsepower, which allows it to reach a top speed of around 65 miles per hour, making it suitable for urban use and occasional trips outside the city. The battery provides a single-charge range of about 100 kilometers (62 miles), according to VMoto.

It’s exciting to see VMoto introduce a more adventurous platform with the new CPx Explorer. Based on the proven CPx Pro, it is likely that the Explorer will be just as reliable and durable.

VMoto has yet to announce specific pricing and availability for the new scooter. Those interested in being among the first to own this new model should contact their nearest VMoto dealer for more information.

During his visit, Sexton not only got to see the ins and outs of the motorsports HQ but also met the technical team and staff responsible for creating the KTM 450 SX-F FACTORY EDITION. This bike will be used by Sexton in the upcoming 2024 AMA 450SX racing series, the AMA Pro Motocross 450 Class championship, and the SuperMotocross contest, which combines both indoor and outdoor disciplines.

His impressive performance in the 2023 Super Cross season earned him the championship title. Before his packed schedule begins, Sexton had the opportunity to fully experience the KTM culture in Austria by touring the 9,500 square-meter (about 102,257 square-foot) motorsport building of Red Bull KTM.

The motorsports HQ is where KTM builds, stores, and prepares all their Motocross, Enduro, Rally, and MotoGP bikes for their racers. Sexton joins a roster of almost 70 riders and will have access to the brand’s fleet of support vehicles and accompanying equipment.

In addition to viewing the historical displays and FIM world titles earned by Red Bull KTM over the years, Sexton also had the chance to test the KTM X-BOW GT-XR with Hubert Trunkenpolz, Member of the Board.

It’s been special to come here and meet everybody, see how the heart of the KTM racing program and also where my race bike is born. Then in the Motohall learning all the history and the racing story of KTM is very motivating; it makes me want to get on the bike and ride right now. KTM is a very successful, winning manufacturer, and my plan is to get them back on top and keep that momentum going. At the factory, I had never really seen anything like the assembly lines before and the variety of motorcycles being built and how fast they are done by hand. I won’t forget this day.”

Bugatti Plans Expansion of Molsheim Headquarters for Electric Hypercar

Bugatti has announced its intention to expand its headquarters in Molsheim, France, as part of an investment program aimed at facilitating the development of new models beyond the Chiron era.

One of the key changes to the site will be the construction of a new two-storey building next to the existing Atelier, where the Bugatti Chiron is currently assembled.

The building, set to be constructed in the second half of 2024, will cover an area of 2120 square meters and accommodate new staff as well as further development projects, including Bugatti’s first hypersports model under the ownership of Rimac.

The new Bugatti model, which is already in the works, is expected to leverage Rimac’s expertise in electric drivetrains to deliver an even higher level of acceleration compared to the 1577bhp quad-turbocharged 8.0-liter W16 petrol-powered Chiron Super Sport.

Bugatti’s expansion plans will also provide support for ongoing programs such as the production of the Bolide and W16 Mistral.

Christophe Piochon, the president of Bugatti, stated, “The construction of this new building in our home in Molsheim aligns with our brand and product expansion.”

In order to meet the demands of the expansion, Bugatti has launched a recruitment campaign with the goal of increasing the workforce at Molsheim by 50% by the end of 2027.
