Hybrids have the potential for very good performance due to the low end torque of an electric motor.

This is the reason there will be a new Corvette hybrid, massive down-low acceleration.

Outside of that, batteries do not have the energy density required for a motorcycle. You need a motor to recharge them.

I’ve seen videos of ppl riding electric dirt bikes in Ecuador. They’re allowed on bike/walking nature trails. Pretty impressive. Don’t know their range tho.
