Ion Horse

Ecotricity teamed up with Kingston University London to create this ground-breaking electric superbike, the – Ion Horse. And just like our car, The Nemesis, it’s powered by our windmills, making it a wind-powered bike.

Ion Horse is designed for the Isle of Man TT Zero race – in 2011 it went down a storm. The bike came in third, scooped a £5,000 prize for being the fastest University team by far, beating the likes of Imperial College London and Massachusetts Institute of Technology, and some professional teams, including BMW. We’ll have two bikes for the 2012 race; an all new bike and a refined 2011 bike.

This time we're there for the glory. We want the Ion Horse to be the first electric bike to complete the course with an average speed of over 100mph. We’re ready for another go at that record...
