XPeng's the Chinese EV automaker, right? Didn't know one of its co-founders started a motorcycle company.

A former XPeng co-founder moving into motorcycles — curious how much of that four-wheel EV know-how actually translates to two wheels.

Electric motorcycle sales in Indonesia up 400% year-over-year in 2024 — jumping in during that kind of growth is perfect timing.
