After months of anticipation, Dust Moto has unveiled the final production version of its long-awaited Hightail electric motorcycle. After an initial test with the prototype earlier this year, where the promise of fun and performance was already evident, the brand is now presenting a model that looks ready to conquer trails, motocross tracks and even backyards.
Impressive technical specifications
The Hightail is powered by a removable 4.4 kWh battery, capable of delivering a declared 42 horsepower and 60 Nm of torque. The possibility of quickly changing the battery is one of the model’s main innovations, eliminating one of the biggest concerns associated with electric vehicles: autonomy. With this system, users can swap a discharged battery for a fully charged one in less time than it takes to fill a traditional fuel tank.
Weighing just 100 kg, the Hightail stands out for its lightness, which, combined with the power provided, promises an agile and dynamic ride. The adjustable suspension, with 25 cm of travel at the front and 28 cm at the rear, together with robust tires and powerful brakes, reinforces its appeal for demanding terrain.
Fun without compromise
The Hightail’s design and engineering have been thought out to provide a thrilling experience in a variety of environments, from motocross tracks to off-road adventures. The model’s lightness, combined with its power, also makes it an interesting choice for those looking for a versatile vehicle for the countryside or even hunting.
Competitive price and pre-orders
Dust Moto is already accepting pre-orders for the Hightail, with an initial deposit of just $100. The final price, estimated at around $10,000, makes it an attractive proposition given its capabilities, the fact that it is manufactured in the United States and the care taken with the finishes and design.
A bet on the future of motocross
The Hightail is positioned as an electric motorcycle that combines performance, innovation and sustainability, without sacrificing fun. With this debut, Dust Moto seems to be paving the way for a new era in motocross, making the sport more accessible, efficient and environmentally friendly.
If you’re looking for a bike that lets you explore trails or enjoy backyard maneuvers without disturbing neighbors, the Hightail could be just what you need.
