Because stigmatizing an internal combustion engine was signing up for taxes on fuel, thinking that the planet would be better off, without ever thinking about the time it takes to recycle a lithium battery... Among other things. But without going that far, we must evaluate the approval and performance of this propulsion. At Aprilia, we have our own idea…

It may still be, but to be sure now, we will have to wait how it coronavirus will have rewritten the matrix of our world which only ensures its vital functions. However, the expertise is there.
