What could be next for Elon Musk’s Tesla? How about a hubless electric motorcycle that would definitely turn some heads. That’s exactly what automotive designer Nazar Eisa came up with and it looks to be straight from a science fiction film.
White Motorcycle Concepts’ WMC250EV aims to break the electric land speed record for motorbikes, and the current one stands at 254mph. To help it become the fastest, it boasts an all-carbon-fiber body construction over a billet aluminum chassis, complete with a giant hole right in the middle for aerodynamic purposes.

Industrial designer Tomáš Klečka from the Czech Republic envisions an electric motorcycle that is not only fast, but has supercar looks, and this hubless masterpieces is what he came up with. To ensure proper ride time, this bike should have at least a 130-mile range on a single charge. Unlike its supercar counterpart, this electric motorcycle needs very little maintenance.
