At the time, the Canadian-based company showcased its first electric motorcycle, the Origin dual-sport and Pulse roadster. 

Unfortunately, while Can-Am revealed that both motorcycles would run on an all-new Rotax E-Power electric motor, the firm remained tight-lipped on the Origin and Pulse power, range and charging time.

Nevertheless, BRP quickly got things running as the company recently broke ground for a new EV-manufacturing plant in Queretaro, Mexico.

According to the firm, the new facility will primarily produce Can-Am’s electric two-wheeler range, including the Pulse and Origin. 

“We have set out to reclaim our motorcycle heritage by launching a lineup of electric two-wheel motorcycles, and we are gearing up to execute our plan.

“We look forward to producing the first electric Can-Am motorcycles for a new generation of enthusiasts,” said BRP Powersports Group President Sandy Scullion.

The Canadian company first produced its motorcycles back in the 70s and 80s with motocross and off-road two-wheelers.

The company went down in 1987 before being revived by Bombardier Recreational Products (BRP) in 2006 which led to the brand manufacturing three-wheeled motorcycles and trikes.

However, as the world has shifted towards electrification, BRP announced its plan to revived Can-Am as a two-wheel electric maker, in March 2022.

At the time, the company teased four motorcycles, and six months on Can-Am has revealed the Origin and Pulse.
