White Motorcycle Concepts (WMC), the global leading expert in motorcycle aerodynamic duct technology, brings the joy of reduced carbon motorbiking to the public for the first time with its first premium consumer hybrid motorcycle – the WMC300AE Aero-Electric Hybrid.

WMC’s new short-run production motorcycle harnesses all the research, efficiency and performance potential gathered from the pioneering British engineering company’s ground-breaking WMC250EV high-speed demonstrator land speed record bike. It demonstrates the extreme range and carbon reduction credentials of its WMC300FR First Responder bike.

WMC was founded by Chief Executive Officer Rob White and is based in Northamptonshire. It has developed a practical version of its patented drag reduction technology that funnels air through, rather than around, a motorcycle.

The company has upgraded this V-Duct with iterations which is a key pillar of WMC’s WMC250EV high-speed demonstrator land speed record bike. It is also the WMC300FR First Responder. It is a road bike with hybrid technology and complete with high-end subsystems. The combination creates a luxury, premium, long-range low-carbon alternative to the traditional road motorcycle.

As the industry transitions away from being dependent on fossil fuels, WMC continues to innovate with its WMC300AE Aero-Electric Hybrid. WMC’s team of former Formula 1 engineers have used the Yamaha Tricity 300 as a base model. According to that, they have devised a truly unique piece of automotive history. It is both enormously practical while also provides a blueprint for the future of motorcycle technology. 

No expense has been spared to make the Aero-Electric Hybrid riding experience as desirable as it is exclusive. WMC has added a number of carefully chosen upgrades to enhance the motorcycle’s overall ride experience.

WMC has enhanced the powertrain with K&N air filters and a titanium/carbon fibre Akrapovic Slip-On Line (SS) exhaust. Handling is much better by the inclusion of Ohlins YA 241 shock absorbers. The same goes for braking with the EBC Greenstuff brake pads (that use sustainable brake pad material), as well as Hel Performance braided brake lines. The aerospace-grade recycled carbon fibre maintains sustainability throughout the duct.

The Aero-Electric Hybrid incorporates a bespoke venturi duct. It reduces drag by pushing air through the vehicle, rather than around it. Aerodynamic front fenders then force air towards the tunnel, reducing frontal resistance and needing less energy to propel the vehicle forward. The hybrid power assist, featuring a 5kW peak power electric motor unit, kicks in at lower speeds. It improves acceleration and range as it reduces the petrol requirement.

Here the efficiency benefit of the aerodynamics then becomes prominent at the higher speed range maximising fuel saving and increasing performance. The hybrid system utilises two 56V 12Ah rechargeable batteries from industry leader EGO. Riders can opt for fast charging from a standard three-pin plug.

The hybrid system, frontal aerodynamics, new front fenders and carbon fibre wheel fairings (including wheel discs) work well with the duct. The result means the WMC300AE can achieve much greater fuel efficiency. At the same time, it dramatically reduces the CO2 produced when compared to an equivalent conventional motorcycle. 

“This is the first application of our duct technology available to the public. It offers a limited number of individuals the chance to purchase this very special motorcycle. Because of this, we wanted the Aero-Electric Hybrid to feel as a premium to ride as it is unique to own. This is the ultimate expression of a reduced carbon city commuter motorcycle,” said White.

“It’s our desire to see the duct become a part of all future motorcycle design and the WMC300AE represents the first public model anywhere in the world to incorporate it along with hybrid technology.

“We are a premium motorcycle concept creation company. We do not have the desire to become a mass manufacturer of motorcycles. However, where we feel that our technology is suited to an exclusive run, we will create an exceptional version. And the Aero-Electric Hybrid is truly exceptional.”

The primary target of the WMC300AE Aero-Electric Hybrid is the UK market. Each example would be provided in-house premium service and repair. The limited run of 10 motorcycles becomes available to the public on 30th, September with price available on application.
