399-volt motor 133bhp / 292ftlb 220kg (kerb) £90,000

If you want to know what electric bikes are capable of if money is no object, the Arc Vector is it. Weighing just 220kg (kerb), it’s over 50kg lighter than its closest competitio­n and puts out just over 133bhp, which isn’t bad, but that’s dwarfed by the stonking 292ftlb of torque. Yes, 292lbft! Arc say the range is around 220 miles in urban use, 120 miles on the motorway. But its trump card is played when you plug it into a fast charger, which can replenish its batteries from dead to fully charged in a class-leading 45 minutes.
