Orange County Choppers is producing a hybrid motorcycle in a deal with Schneider Electric.
According to a statement the aim is to build a motorcycle “capable of traveling farther, without refueling or recharging, than any other OCC bike in history”.
The move comes after OCC has already produced an electric chopper and so it seems we could be going eco in the chopper market of all sectors.
Schneider Electric will provide the components and technical knowledge to build the hybrid bike, which may have something like a parallel power train a bit like that originally used on the Toyota Prius hatchback car.
Apparently the hybrid chopper should be ready by the end of 2009, exclusively offered to contract partners who will get their own Orange County Chopper.
