oil | same technology | transportation needs

No gas. No oil. No emissions. Just a lot of fun. That’s what you get with Evolve Electric Motorcycles, a pioneering line of lean, green, two-wheeled machines.

With their sleek designs and lithium-ion batteries (the same technology that powers your cellphone), Evolve bikes are both sensible and stylish, the eco-conscious answer to a range of transportation needs. They come in four models: the Helium, a nimble, lightweight bike for city riding; the Zinc, perfect for beach cruising; the Neon, which combines agility with open-road power; and the Titanium, a freeway-worthy design that can reach speeds of 60 mph. The batteries in every model are easy to maintain — and powerful enough to travel 80 to 100 miles on a single charge. In keeping with Evolve’s community-minded ethos, all bikes also come with a free mobile app that allows riders to track one another’s location; find charging stations; share photos and videos; and call for emergency roadside assistance. $2,900 to $6,900; www.evolvemotorcycles.com
