If you haven’t heard the news already, Canadian-based Powersports vehicle maker Can-Am is getting ready to return to the motorcycle segment with the ‘Origin’ and ‘Pulse’ electric models spearheading their two-wheeled portfolio. Now, a year after dropping the cover on their two e-bikes, the manufacturer has released a new teaser video that gives us a glimpse of the upcoming motorcycles in action.

Equipped with what looks to be dirt-friendly 21/18-inch wheels, the wire-spoked ‘Origin’ is Can-Am’s dual sport machine which seems to have its crosshairs aimed at bikes like Zero’s FX. Inverted forks and a rear monoshock comprise its suspension system while single-disc brakes front and rear provide stopping power. One of the features BRP says riders will appreciate is its smooth and precise power delivery even in tight, low speed situations. 

Joining the Origin model will be a new street-focused e-bike dubbed ‘Pulse’ which the company says is intended to be “a balanced and agile motorcycle designed to immerse riders in the energy of the city.” Smaller compared to its dual-sport counterpart, the cast-wheeled Pulse is touted as a fun and compact commuter bike complimented by its shorter suspension and lower seat h.

While each model will be designed to satisfy different riding needs, both are powered by the all-new Rotax E-Power technology. Can-Am has not released actual numbers but said the motor yields “highway-worthy speeds with plenty of horsepower and torque.” Both models are also said to showcase state-of-the-art technology, and share features like a high-performance LED headlight, a single-sided swingarm, a large TFT display, and level 2 charging.

As far as the full specs, Can-Am says we’ll have to wait until next summer with the first motorcycles expected to hit the road before the end of 2024. In the meantime, the company has launched a dedicated site for the two machines where you can sign up to stay up to date with their development.
