How does it compare?
Speed
The Naxeon Motorcycle I AM hits a top speed of 80 mph (129 km/h), respectable but not exactly face-melting. Meanwhile, the Zero SR/F blazes past at 124 mph (200 km/h). If you’re feeling particularly brave, the Harley-Davidson LiveWire screams down the road at 110 mph (177 km/h), while the Energica Eva Ribelle rips through the wind at 125 mph (201 km/h). Even the Lightning Strike leaves little to desire with its top speed of 150 mph (241 km/h). So, while Naxeons numbers might not induce whiplash, for urban commutes, it’s plenty speedy.
Range
On a single charge, the Naxeon Motorcycle I AM manages around 90 miles (145 km). Not shabby, until you look down the row. The Zero SR/F rocks a solid 161 miles (259 km). The Harley-Davidson LiveWire, a bit conservative on the range, rolls in at 95 miles (152 km). The Energica Eva Ribelle? A lovely 150 miles (241 km). And if youre on the Lightning Strike, enjoy a splendid 120 miles (193 km). So, while the Naxeon plays it safe, the competition is flexing their longevity muscles.
Power
Lets talk propulsion. The Naxeon Motorcycle I AM packs a 40 kW motor. Put that next to the Zero SR/F, harnessing a hefty 82 kW, and you start to see where things get interesting. The Harley-Davidson LiveWire throws in with 78 kW, while the Energica Eva Ribelle delivers a beastly 107 kW. And the Lightning Strike? It’s tearing up the pavement with 90 kW. So yes, the Naxeon might leave you wishing for a tad more muscle.
Charging Time
No one likes sitting idle at a charging station. The Naxeon Motorcycle I AM requires a lengthy 6 hours to juice up. Next to that, the Zero SR/F drops jaws with just 1 hour (rapid charge), while the Harley-Davidson LiveWire demands 40 minutes for an 80% fill. The Energica Eva Ribelle is a bit more patient, needing about 4 hours, and the Lightning Strike speeds its ritual with a commendable 2 hours. Clearly, when it comes to charging, our Naxeon friend might be due for an upgrade.
Price
The Naxeon Motorcycle I AM tags in at a wallet-friendly $8,000 (approx. £6,100 or €7,300). Comparatively, the Zero SR/F will lighten your pocket by $19,495 (approx. £15,000 or €17,750).

Price-wise, Naxeon offers a considerably more digestible option for the budget-conscious.
So there you have it – the Naxeon Motorcycle I AM might not win any drag races or Iron Butt challenges, but it makes an impressive statement for value and everyday practicality. While the big boys duke it out over performance stats, Naxeon offers a commendable package for a fraction of the price.
