The US Federal Government has set a goal to make half of all new vehicles sold in the U.S. in 2030 zero-emissions vehicles, and to build a convenient and equitable network of 500,000 chargers to help make EVs accessible to all Americans for both local and long-distance trips.
556,000 new motorcycles were sold in USA in 2022 If US gov achieves 50% to be EV by 2030, there will be 278,000 units of new electric motorcycle sales in 2030.
Lightning strategy is to focus on US market first and then expand to EU or global later. The plan is to grow sales to 41,700 units in US and 14,979 units in EU by 2030.
There are over 600M motorcycles in the world today. Most of them will be electric in the future. The market size is huge and early market leader will have significant benefits.

According to Webbikworld*, 50–70% of powersport purchases were made by newbies to the Powersports Industry. That’s a massive influx of demand, and one that comes with a different set of demographics compared to the traditional buyer pre-COVID.
“Many consumers were looking for other opportunities during the lockdown to be able to just live life. Powersports, RV, and recreation in general provided that outlet for folks,” Altieri says.
“We have a lot of brand-new entrants who are getting into Powersports and recreation. That really speaks well for our industry.”
