Move fast and Build Things

Born on a racetrack!

Ten years ago, three motorcycles powered by electric engines zoomed past the chequered flag on their way to the podium at the Isle of Man TT racing circuit. One of them had the Indian tricolor painted on it. Tork Motors was born on a race track. Even our triumphant first cry was very much silent. So while we say no to noise, we always say yes to conversations.

It is easy to be powerful and loud. It is common to be powerless yet loud as well. Noise is for when things break. We are building the powerful yet silent breed. Noise is not how we show our might, smoke is not how we show our desire, the word ICE doesn’t represent anything cool in our mind.

We do not believe in building something and then sit in a corner with our fingers crossed hoping nothing goes wrong. We do move fast but not too fast that would break things. We do not believe in assembling random parts that arrive on a ship and then shout that we have built a motorcycle. We like to build. Build things that last.

Your support is our source of energy

Watch this space as we update our progress towards building electric vehicles that provide an elevated experience and raises the bar for every machine that moves!

Team Tork!
