It's a little sad that we need to actually say this, but:

Don't be an asshole or you will be permanently banned.

Respectful debate is totally OK, criticizing a product is fine, but being verbally abusive will not be tolerated.

Focus on discussing the idea, not attacking the person.

Can-Am last produced motorcycles in the 1980s. Now, the BRP-operated brand has added two new electric machines for on and off-road riding.

The range and charging leave a lot to be desired for many applications, but the bikes themselves seem to be quite nice.

My concern is that finding chargers will be even more difficult than it already is since I don’t think there is any DC charging support. So none of the side-of-the-highway EV charging stations will work, and you’ll specifically have to seek out a level 2 charger next to a coffee shop or something. Just makes any travel longer than the ~130 km range even more hopeless.

If I didn’t already commute everywhere locally by bike, I would definitely consider something like this though.
