which was previously used exclusively in the characteristically brutalistically designed Verge electric motorcycles &#8211; available throughout the industry.\u00a0 The technology solutions are intended to help licensees to develop their own electric motorcycles at a higher technical level.<\/p>\n<p>According to <a class=\"wpil_keyword_link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.motorcycles.news\/en\/tag\/verge-en\/\" target=\"_blank\"  rel=\"noopener\" title=\"Verge\" data-wpil-keyword-link=\"linked\"  data-wpil-monitor-id=\"11816\">Verge<\/a>, this opening up to the B2B market is in response to concrete interest from several international manufacturers who have become aware of the Finns&#8217;
