If you think electric is boring, then you haven't heard of the Ichiban Godzilla. This electric motorcycle combines retro-futuristic design, brutal power, and future technology. And yes, it even has a "Godzilla mode."

Ichiban Godzilla looks like it came straight from an anime classic Akira. Its sleek lines and aerodynamic design aren’t just for show – they improve speed and efficiency. The minimalist approach of Japanese design works perfectly here: nothing is superfluous, every element has its own function. The wheels are massive, almost cyberpunk, the seat is low and elongated, and the front end feels like something from the future. If Kaneda had an electric motor, this would be it.

Engines: a double dose of electric madness

Underneath the sleek shell is a true electric beast twin. The Ichiban Godzilla uses two electric motors that work together to create stunning acceleration. It accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h (0 to 60 mph) in less than four seconds, which means it's faster than most sports cars. Being electric, torque is available immediately, meaning brutally fast acceleration without any lag. Top speed is around 200 km/h (124 mph), which is more than enough to take you to another dimension.

But it's a real treat Godzilla fashionThis driving mode unleashes additional power and provides even more aggressive acceleration – as if you already needed an extra adrenaline rush.

Battery and range: is it enough for the whole beast?

The battery is big, powerful and capable of serious driving. With a capacity of around 18 kWh, it offers a real-world range of around 250 km (155 miles), which is more than enough for everyday driving or dynamic trips on winding roads. Charging is also fast, with the battery being able to be charged to 80 % in less than 40 minutes, meaning you don't have to worry about staying dry during your coffee break.

Technology: a digital beast

The Ichiban Godzilla is not only powerful and fast, but also smart. It has a large digital display that shows speed, range, riding mode and other key information. The smart battery management system optimizes energy consumption and prevents overheating, increasing safety and battery pack life. The engine starts without a key, using a wireless unlock and start system, which further adds to the feeling of sitting on a motorcycle of the future.

Conclusion: is this the electric motorcycle we've been waiting for?

The Ichiban Godzilla is more than just an electric motorbike – it’s a statement. It’s a futuristic toy that offers brutal power, stunning design and future-proof technology. The price is yet to be announced, but we expect it won’t be cheap. But for those who want something unique, fast and visually stunning, the Ichiban Godzilla will be worth every euro (or yen). If you’ve ever dreamed of an anime motorbike, now it exists – and it’s faster than you thought.
