Ultra Motor’s new A2B Electric Bike Debuts at Interbike
SEPT. 25, 2008 - Electric bicycle manufacturer Ultra Motor announced their new A2B electric bike today, along with the results of it’s first Smart Annual survey. The survey results strongly suggest that alternative transportation methods such as electric bikes, smartcars, and hybrids are the transportation technology of the future. From the survey:
“Overall, 80 percent of respondents said they think alternative transportation methods such as electric bikes, smart cars and hybrids are the way of the future. When asked about the main source of future transportation energy, nearly one-third of all respondents believe electricity will be the key energy source that people will rely on for their transportation needs in the next 10 years. This suggests ample market opportunities for electric bicycles such as the A2B, which uses standard household current to recharge its battery just as a cell phone or laptop.”
“Alternative transportation offers many clear benefits and it is evident that people are ready for change,” said Chris Deyo, CEO of Ultra Motor USA. “Whether they’re headed to the office, college campus or running errands around town, commuters will find that our A2B electric bikes will fill their transportation needs without emptying their wallet at the gas pump.”
About the A2B itself - it’s a folding electric bike powered with a 500W electric motor and lithium-ion batteries. Ultra Motor claims a 20 mile range per charge on this bike. As you can see from the picture, it is one of the cooler-looking folders out there. Check out the product details and detailed specs at Ultra Motor.
