It looks like 2-3X more energy than the LiFePO4.  I wonder how long before they can be used in motorcycles.

Don't think Envia is a publicly traded company. I have a feeling that instead of going for the 100miles/charge breakthrough that they might offer the alternative which is cheaper batteries.

Probably better to offer something in between, such as a genuine 100 mile range coupled with some price savings.
