The Russian brand Aurus showed a new model Merlon

At one time, the Aurus brand promised to release a heavy escort motorcycle, and not an ordinary one, but a fully electric one. Many have probably forgotten about these promises, but the domestic luxury car builder unexpectedly rolled out a very real bike at the Innoprom-2022 exhibition.

According to the manufacturer, we have a pre-production version of the bike in front of us, which will be called the Merlon. For reference, we note that “merlon” is a protrusion of a fortress wall, for example, the Kremlin. At the same time, Aurus cars are named after Kremlin towers, so the naming looks quite logical.

It was announced that the two-wheeled novelty will receive a 190 horsepower electric motor, which will allow this Aurus to accelerate to “hundreds” in 3.7 seconds. The maximum speed of the model reaches 200 km / h, and on a single battery charge it is ready to travel up to 200 kilometers.

Series production of bicycles should start in a few months. But they plan to assemble cars exclusively in small batches, as the FSO and the Interior Ministry will be the main buyers. Employees of these departments will escort columns of top officials on the Merlons.

However, NAMI also believes that “high consumer grades” will open “wide opportunities” for civilian modification.

As for Aurus cars, they are still more interested in dignitaries. For example, the authorities of Turkmenistan bought an armored Senat limousine for official and representative needs of the country’s president, Serdar Berdimuhamedov.
