Electric mobility isn’t a new domain for BMW, as the company already has the C Evolution, a super-quick electric scooter, in its portfolio. While BMW has decided to hold on to the details about the eRR, the company has claimed that the superbike will out-accelerate the C Evolution, which has already set benchmarks when it comes to 0 to 50kmph times.
