Vmoto’s CPx Pro is taking it to the petrol-powered competition in a big way…
Vmoto’s been the top-selling electric bike brand in the UK for years now, thanks to its range of well-priced urban mobility machinery. You’re most likely to have seen its product delivering food or parcels in a city, but many commuters use its bikes to get to work with low running costs. And it’s also got a strong presence in the race paddocks of the world, with sponsorship deals for Ducati in BSB and WSBK. Many of the world’s best racers spend plenty of time on a Vmoto scooter…
We went to Italy last month for the firm’s annual Pro Day event at Misano and tried out the new CPx Pro scooter. The firm had lined up some 125cc petrol bikes as a comparison, and the battery-powered machinery was actually much nicer to ride than the restricted petrol bikes.

The instant torquey grunt and automatic transmission on the CPx was much nicer than the wheezy, asthmatic four-stroke 125s with clunky manual boxes. It makes 11bhp peak power, weighs 143kg, and will hit 65mph, with a 65-mile range. Vmoto is also offering a new battery design for 2025, which charges from empty to 80 per cent in half-an-hour and uses the faster car-type charger plugs which are becoming universally available.
The CPx Pro costs £4699 with dual battery pack. More info at www.vmoto.com
