Unleash Your Inner Cyberpunk with Real Motors' Retro-Futuristic Cafe Racer

Real Motors' Project: Ares is an electric cafe racer that perfectly merges modern technology with vintage aesthetics, reminiscent of a sci-fi film.

Key Features

• Range: 100 miles (161 km)
• Top Speed: 95 mph (153 km/h)
• Acceleration: 0 to 60 mph (97 km/h) in under 4 seconds.

Weighing approximately 420 lb (190 kg), Project: Ares is powered by an 11-kWh battery, making it comparable to traditional gas bikes in the 700cc to 900cc range.

Design & Comfort

The bike features an aggressive riding position with clip-on handlebars and rear-sets, paired with a 33.5-inch (851-mm) seat height for a spirited riding experience. Its 60.5-inch (153.7-cm) wheelbase ensures agile handling, perfect for city riding. The integrated digital display with GPS simplifies navigation during commutes.

Charging is efficient, going from 10% to 80% in just 30 minutes with a Level 2 charger. The bike is equipped with Bridgestone Battlax SC 2 tires and ByBre brakes for reliable stopping power.

Ideal for New Riders

Real Motors describes Project: Ares as the ideal choice for first-time motorcycle owners, offering a blend of digital technology and analog experience. It's marketed as a practical EV for daily use, yet it's acknowledged as a premium product, potentially costing around US$20,000.

Scheduled for delivery in late 2025, the components will be manufactured in China and assembled in the US. Interested customers can register to secure a spot for the first batch of bikes.
