Vmoto brand Super Soco becomes the first all-electric motorcycle manufacturer to appear in the list of top 10 UK-registered brands
February, London, UK: Vmoto, global manufacturer and distributor of electric motorcycles/mopeds, today announces that the brand was the UK’s number one top-selling electric brand in 2021.
Super Soco, one of Vmoto’s primary brands has also achieved remarkable success by featuring in the list of top 10 UK-registered brands. The brand registered 236 vehicles last year, joining the likes of brands such as Honda, Yamaha, and Kawasaki on the list. For the first time ever, an all-electric motorcycle manufacturer has made it into the overall top 10 UK registration statistics, beating some of the longstanding established petrol manufacturers in the process.
The news reflects Vmoto’s growing global success across multiple sectors and countries. Vmoto has one of the widest global distribution networks of any electric motorcycle/moped manufacturer in the world, being represented by more than 53 distributors in approximately 60 countries in the geographic regions of Asia Pacific, Europe, North America, South America and South Africa. Vmoto’s distribution of electric scooters has helped countries make the transition to electric-powered transport easier, and at scale.
With the mission to supply next generation of electric vehicles that is sustainable, smart and environmentally friendly to modern commuters and travellers, Vmoto and its UK distributor and B2B partner GreenMo have been a prominent contender in the electric vehicle industry. Electric fleet vehicles supplied by GreenMo for top delivery services such as Just Eat, Deliveroo and Getir successfully completed 10 million miles last year. This equates to 467 million litres of CO2 saved compared comparing a Honda PCX and a Super Soco bike charged on a typical UK household electric supply.
Commenting on the news Richard Jordan, UK Managing Director said: “We are delighted with the news that Vmoto is the UK’s number one top-selling electric brand and Super Soco being the first-ever brand to make it onto the list of the UK’s top 10 registered vehicles. Whilst there is unfortunately still apprehension surrounding electric transport and we have been faced with additional disappointing cuts to the Government’s revised plug-in grants, we’re glad consumers are seeing and experiencing the benefits of using our bikes.”
He continued, “The popularity of our vehicles reflects the growing change in attitude from commuters and vehicles owners towards transitioning to alternative cheaper and sustainable personal transport options. This type of innovation is not a luxury, it is a vital need. Industries and consumers have to fully embrace electric vehicles to make transportation easier, quicker and cheaper. For electric options to gain mass market adoption they have to out compete petrol in terms of both capability and cost, our vehicles do just that.”
Vmoto and its primary brands including Super Soco are continuing to improve the transport industry through aiding the UK to reach the net-zero target. With last year’s success proving that plug-in vehicles are growing in popularity, consumers can expect an exciting future that is electric.
