2013 Vectrix VX-1 Li Plus Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown

Positioned in Vectrix's scooter motorcycle lineup, the 2013 Vectrix VX-1 Li Plus features a purpose-built air-cooled electric configuration. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 28.2 HP (20.6 kW) while maximum torque reaches 65 Nm (47.9 lb-ft), transferring power to the rear wheel through a automatic gearbox.

On the scales, the VX-1 Li Plus measures 209 kg (461 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.13 HP/kg (7.41 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 775 mm (30.5 in) seat height — offering a neutral standover height that accommodates most average-inseam riders without sacrificing cornering clearance, combined with a 1,524 mm (60 in) wheelbase engineered for planted straight-line stability.
