This video of the Agni Z2 electric superbike on the track is actually a promotional video for the new Citroen Survolt electric supercar, meaning we don’t get to see much of the bike or know how the car vs bike challenge ends. But in any case, there’s always a good excuse to check out the electric motorcycle market, especially the superbike developments at that.

The Agni Z2 bike in this video is ridden by Jenny Tinmouth from the Isle of Man’s TTXGP. Maybe an unusual choice you might think until you know that Vanina Ickx is at the wheel of the Survolt, who also drove it in the this year’s Le Mans series. The Agni Z2 has batteries with a 50 kW output, 65php and a top speed of 200 km/hr.
