Bending Four wheels on Æ motion’s tilting electric motorcycle

Æ Motion’s tilting electric motorcycle comes with four wheels that can bend when the vehicle turns corners. First introduced in late 2024, the team brought the ride to the annual technology conference VivaTech in Paris, France, between June 11th and 14th, 2025. Visitors then were able to see Æ Motion’s tilting electric motorcycle in person, which resembles a microcar because of its enclosed frame and four wheels. The doors swivel upward, which makes the entry and exit spacious, and inside the vehicle, there’s enough seating for two people, just like a two-wheeled motorcycle. The first seat folds down so the rear passengers can sit at the back.

The rear seat is modular, too. If there’s no other passenger, the rider can ‘stow’ the back seat, meaning push it forward and then push it down a bit, to allow for storage space at the rear, enough for grocery bags and a small piece of luggage. The neon seatbelts attach to both sides of the rider and passenger, similar to those in a pilot’s seat. Inside Æ Motion’s tilting electric motorcycle, the crash boxes are located at the front and rear, and for the model, the team installs removable batteries, positioned just under the front seat and between the rider’s feet.

‘Thin’ vehicle to navigate traffic and tight roads

Æ Motion says that its tilting electric motorcycle lasts long in a way that owners can take it to an authorized garage for easy swaps and repairs of its sub-assemblies. The main feature that the team highlights the most is the bending chassis, which tilts up to 35 degrees when the vehicle turns or takes a sharp turn. The user naturally manages the angling using the handlebar, which is the same dynamics as a two-wheeler. The team adds that the electric powertrain installed in the model delivers immediate torque, so the speed is consistent even after a turn.

Another evident feature of the ride is how thin it is. The vehicle’s width is 79 centimeters, sort of similar to a standard motorcycle or scooter, which means it’s easy for the rider to navigate traffic, narrow streets, and tight roads. It helps that the entire frame is covered, so there’s a reduced risk of road accidents, especially with impacts. Specs-wise, Æ Motion’s tilting electric motorcycle can run up to a maximum speed of 115 km/h, and the swappable batteries offer up to 70 kilometers of autonomy. So far, there’s no news yet on the commercial availability of Æ Motion’s tilting electric motorcycle, but the pre-order pool has already opened for interested riders.
