100-year-old brand sets new bar for the future of motorcycles

NEW YORK, July 1, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Today the Soriano Group launches Soriano Motori Corp, a high performance EV motorcycle innovation, design, and cultural liaison for the next generation of riders, from a legacy brand of motorcycles originally founded in '39.  The launch of SMC under the leadership of Marco Soriano will continue its family legacy of innovation and invention ahead of its time. 

"Soriano Motori's motorcycles represent the finest Italian design, image, branding, architecture and engineering, that for the first time are being applied to EV motorcycles for the next generation of riders," said Marco Soriano, founder of SMC. "Owners of Soriano Motori motorcycles are assured the look, feel and lifestyle of what they love about motorcycles, fused with the intoxication of a strong and proud made in Italy brand. We bring elegance and innovation into balance to deliver something that is transcendent for the motorcycle culture."

For years, the Italian pursuit of both style and grace in the most advanced form of engineering has become a pride of the culture. "The owners of Soriano EV motorcycles are promised to be piloting one of the most advanced, stylist, and environmentally friendly Italian machines on the planet," said Marco Soriano. Production takes place at two state-of-the-art facilities in Oggiono & Lecco, towns surrounding the outstanding Lake Como, Italy.

Application, design, integration, manufacturing, robotics, artificial intelligence (AI) approaches and systems are already established in delivery and production of our V1-R, V1-S and V1-Gara series models, currently available for pre-order and initially capped at 100 total available units. As a modern global brand, SM's payment systems are secured and enabled to receive multiple global currencies including US dollar (USD), the British pound (BDP) and the Euro (EUR), as well as various mainstream cryptocurrencies including Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH).

About Soriano Motori Corp

Founded in 2020, Soriano Motori Corp is the US parent company of the EU division, Soriano Motori Factory SpA. SMC seeks to create a legacy of invention and modernization much like Ricardo Soriano-Scholtz von Hermensdorff did when he established The Soriano-Pedroso SpA in Paris, 1919 and posteriorly R. Soriano SrL in Madrid, 1939 as the First Spanish Manufacturing Company.  Well-seasoned EU & US electric propulsion engineers have recreated this motorcycle icon with today's state-of-the-art technology. For more information, please visit https://sorianomotori.eu.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
With a price tag of 32,500 euros and a range of only 120 to 160 km (75 to 99 miles)  I don't see how this will be a success, unless taxpayers give huge subsidies to it.

More about this bike



NEW YORK and LECCO, Italy, Sept. 1, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Soriano Motori Corp is reviving the historic European motorcycle brand established by inventor Ricardo Soriano Scholtz von Hermensdorff II in 1919, with today's best state-of-the-art technology, mechanical and electrical engineering offered in the field of electric propulsion for vehicles with top well seasoned engineers from the EU and the USA.

Electric mobility is expanding at a rapid pace. The years 2017 and 2018 have, however, been very noteworthy for the EV market. In 2017 was a landmark year for EVs as global sales surpassed one million units for the first time. Studies, including a prominent one by Deloitte estimate that year 2022 will be a tipping point because the price premium for EVs will be eliminated, which will cause a sudden and rapidly rising surge in demand for EVs as a replacement for gas vehicles and ICE (Internal Combustion Engines) in general. 

Cost effective, Eco-friendly
We revisit EVs' charging economics and CO2 intensity post-crisis, concluding:
(1)  EVs are likely to retain their fuel cost advantage, with electricity still >50% cheaper than diesel despite oil price declines;
(2)  Coal phase-out and green stimulus should accelerate the CO2 reduction opportunity, with typical EVs emitting 70% less CO2 vs. diesel by 2030 on our estimates; and
(3)  Charging is likely to feature heavily in EU stimulus with our updated forecasts implying >€100bn spending on equipment/installation by 2040. Electricity brings the final step to motorcycle's evolution; it makes it possible to construct a perfect near perpetual zero-emissions motorcycle machine.

Design and Performance
State-of-the art technology, aircraft-graded frame, specifically designed to minimize weight and increase strength is our signature patented Soriano duo flex engine – liquid cooled brushless. First time in EVs where our bikes come with 5 gear selections so one would feel the raw power, speed, and acceleration for continuous riding experience with each gear change and an overall optimization of consumption and energy distribution. Our Italian heritage is staying true for what Italy stands for which are high quality, luxurious style, and innovation with superior craftsmanship, unique engineering solutions and distinctive design.

Be part of the Global Soriano Lifestyle Club
The Soriano Owners and Lifestyle Club is all about elegance, sophistication and access to the best VIP service and lifestyle events. Soriano World members will have access to an exclusive club of fashion, racing team, well-known racetracks, and the manufacturing facility factory. The first Soriano Club is planned to open in New York City circa 2022 in a townhouse style for all the local riders, artists, actors, posh businessmen and women of the big apple.       

"We're taking the thrill of riding into the future, and we're bringing you along for the ride!" - Marco Soriano, Founder       

We have sold 30% of our limited-edition models and are currently available for pre-order.
