Club BRP in Salt Lake City witnessed the return of Can-Am motorcycles. "Our story of innovation reaches new heights." José Boisjoli, President and CEO of BRP told the dealers assembled for Club for the first time in three years. “We have set out to reclaim our motorcycle heritage and are very proud to re-enter the market with the introduction of the first two models of our all-electric Can-Am motorcycle family."
With the first two new models in a proposed family of electric motorcycles on stage behind him, Boisjoli brought the house down. "Half a century ago, Can-Am roared to victory on the track and the trail, and today, a legacy is reborn. In true BRP fashion, we are bringing our very own electric powerpack to our motorcycles and crafting thrilling riding experiences for a whole new generation.”
The Pulse and the Origin dual-purpose bike are powered by the new Rotax E-Power proprietary electric powerpack technology. Although details are scarce Can-Am's on-board charger will offer rapid charging times and are easy to charge at home or at automotive standard Level 2 charging stations. Moving forward, the Rotax E-Power technology will also be at the heart of all BRP electric models, across all product lines – from water to snow, to dirt and asphalt.
BRP plans on revealing full specs in August 2023, just in time to celebrate Can-Am’s 50th anniversary. In the meantime, Can-Am faithful can join the community and be the first to know when the future of motorcycle riding is ready to hit the road at the new website: canammotorcycle.com
