With this mission in mind, ALYI has announced a new company ReVolt Electric Motorcycles, launched as an Alternet subsidiary. ReVolt has partnered with a manufacturing company to build a motorcycle based on the 1930’s BMW R71 motorcycle with sidecar - but with a twist.

The ReVolt Classic Electric Motorbike with Sidecar will be powered by an electric motor system utilizing the Alternet Systems’ designed lithium battery solution.
ALYI plans to have a limited edition final production ready to be displayed at various trade shows before the holiday season, in which the motorcycle will then be made available for sale.
In the long term, ReVolt also plans to further refine the lithium technology to continue the production of “fun, useful and affordable electric motorbikes based on classic motorcycle designs” as well as to deliver a line of daily driver electric motorbikes to developing economic regions.
