- New Donut Motor 2.0, now 50 percent lighter
- Battery with 20.2 kWh and up to 350 kilometers of range
- Price starting at €36,581 (≈ $40,239)
The latest evolution of the Verge TS Pro brings with it a comprehensive overhaul of the drive, ergonomics, and operation. The models are scheduled to go on sale in 2026 and are already available for pre-order in several markets.
New Donut Motor 2.0
The key technical advancement concerns the rim motor, which, as Donut Motor 2.0, now weighs 50 percent less than the previous version. Despite the significant weight reduction, performance remains unchanged at around 138.5 hp and 102 kW. According to the manufacturer, torque remains at 1000 Nm, which corresponds to approximately 737 lb-ft.
The lower mass significantly reduces the unsprung masses at the rear. This should noticeably improve stability, efficiency, and control. The manufacturer does not provide any specific technical details about the internal changes.
Battery, range, and charging process
The battery has also been redesigned and now offers a capacity of 20.2 kWh. Depending on conditions, it should enable ranges of up to 350 kilometers or 217 miles. When the charge level is low, a 15-minute charging break should be sufficient to recharge enough energy for 100 kilometers or 60 miles.
The fast charging time is still specified as less than 35 minutes. The model supports CCS charging in Europe, while the US version comes with a NACS connector.
Revised chassis and new ergonomics
The chassis has been retuned based on test drives and feedback and is said to offer more agile handling. In addition, the seat angle has been adjusted to 25 degrees to allow for a more ergonomic posture on longer journeys.
New display, improved operation, and Starmatter platform
The cockpit features a larger, more clearly structured display that shows additional driving and environmental data. The user interface has been redesigned to allow for more intuitive operation. Another new feature is integrated Bluetooth connectivity.
The Starmatter platform, which combines software, sensors, and artificial intelligence, remains unchanged. It enables automatic OTA updates, which provide new features and optimizations.
Availability, price, and market position
The Verge TS Pro remains the central model in the Finnish-Estonian manufacturer’s range and will continue to be offered alongside the TS Ultra and California Edition variants. In Germany and the UK, the model is already available online and in showrooms. In the US, it can only be pre-ordered. Test drives are expected to be possible from early 2026.
The motorcycle is priced from €36,581, which is equivalent to around $40,239. The total weight is 230 kilograms, or about 507 pounds.
