Mika Häkkinen Unveils Limited Edition Electric Superbike in Collaboration with Verge Motorcycles

Verge Motorcycles has unveiled a remarkable electric superbike created in collaboration with Finnish F1 icon Mika Häkkinen. This exclusive signature model, limited to just 100 units, showcases a fusion of Verge’s cutting-edge technology and Häkkinen’s distinctive design, resulting in a bike that epitomizes life lived to the fullest.

Mika Häkkinen, a renowned two-time World Champion in Formula 1, brings his expertise to the forefront as he meticulously crafts the signature model of this new electric superbike alongside Verge Motorcycles, a trailblazer in the electric superbike industry. The limited edition nature of this release adds an extraordinary level of rarity to this high-end luxury bike.

Reflecting on his involvement in the project, Häkkinen shared, “Having firsthand experience in developing vehicles that embody speed, precision, and elegance, I wanted to immerse myself in every aspect of the bike’s design rather than simply selecting the colour. Each bike is individually numbered and features an exclusive signature. This electric superbike represents the future of riding and serves as a testament to a life well-lived.”

Häkkinen joined forces with Verge Motorcycles earlier in the year when he assumed a position on the company’s Advisory Board and became one of its investors. The collaboration between Häkkinen and Verge has resulted in a signature model that showcases the combined excellence of these two industry leaders.

“We take immense pride in having F1 legend Mika Häkkinen design our signature model. As one of the greatest drivers of all time, he shares our passion for pushing boundaries and relishing in the thrill of speed,” stated Tuomo Lehtimäki, CEO of Verge Motorcycles.

This luxury superbike, the brainchild of Häkkinen and Verge Motorcycles, marries a striking and daring design with Verge’s unique technologies. Meticulously crafted to the finest detail, this model represents the most advanced and powerful electric superbike on the market, boasting a range of 350 kilometres and a rapid 35-minute charging time. Additionally, it features an innovative integrated rim motor within the rear wheel—a patented and internationally acclaimed innovation developed by Verge.

Crafted from the finest materials available, the bike stands as a truly unparalleled masterpiece. Its carbon fibre fairings and exclusive ceramic surface treatment provide protection against scratches, while full black shock absorbers and dark grey and silver surface elements contribute to its commanding and elegant aesthetic.

Starting today, the extraordinary superbike designed by Mika Häkkinen can be purchased through the Verge Motorcycles online store in Germany, France, Italy, Spain, Finland, Estonia, and Monaco. Customers can also visit the brand-new Verge Motorcycles flagship store in Monaco, which opens in conjunction with the Monaco GP. This physical shop and showroom mark the manufacturer’s first foray into brick-and-mortar retail. The bike is priced at 80,000 euros, excluding taxes.
