Brammo's electric bikes are gearing up for a little eco-friendly competition. The startup specialty vehicle manufacturer has developed the Enertia, a plug-in electric motorcycle being marketed to city commuters as a greener alternative to traditional gas-powered motorcycles, scooters, and cars. Scheduled to begin production in 2009, the lightweight Enertia exceeds 50 mph and gets up to 45 miles per charge. The company claims it is at least two times more energy efficient than all-electric and hybrid automobiles. Founded in 2002, Brammo is privately held. It is controlled by CEO Craig Bramscher, Best Buy Capital, and Chrysalix Energy Venture Capital.
