The Can-Am Pulse electric motorcycle is designed for urban mobility while running errands, commuting, or zipping around town. Playful and agile, its compact and inviting design aims to reach an often untapped audience. Inspired by the majestic snowy owl for its silence and efficiency, its design features generous sculpted volumes, with avant-garde edgy elements. This blend of minimalist design and functional balance creates a seamless connection between the rider and machine.

Its compact proportions, centred around the battery, ensure optimal weight distribution. Its advanced suspension, specialised geometry, and thoughtful ergonomics provide comfort for a wide range of riders. With four different riding modes, passive regen, active regen and reverse function, the Pulse evolves with its owner - whether they are honing their skills or achieving perfect harmony with the motorcycle. An enclosed silent chain-case reduces both maintenance and noise.

Sharing its platform with the Origin motorcycle, the Pulse uses fewer parts to minimise maintenance and reduce environmental impact. Designed for recycling and reuse, it aligns with the UN’s SDG responsible consumption and climate action.
