Engineered by Vectrix for the scooter motorcycle segment, the 2010 Vectrix VX-1E 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 55 Nm (40.6 lb-ft), transferring power to the rear wheel through a automatic gearbox.
On the scales, the VX-1E measures 240 kg (529 lbs) wet (curb), translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.12 HP/kg (8.51 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 770 mm (30.3 in) seat height — offering a neutral standover height that accommodates most average-inseam riders without sacrificing cornering clearance, combined with a 1,525 mm (60 in) wheelbase engineered for planted straight-line stability.
