In most other respects, the Empluse is identical to last year's model though it now meets EU regulations and distribution will begin in the UK and Europe soon. The 2014 Empulse runs to US$17,000 and the R model will cost an extra $2000.

 

In most other respects, the Empluse is identical to last year's model with its water-cooled engine and six speed gearbox, giving it rapid acceleration all the way to its top speed of 110 mph (177 km/h). Apart from greater comfort, better acceleration and a slightly higher top speed, the six-speed box contributes to greater energy efficiency and hence lower running costs.
