The motorcycle has been designed in Europe by Marcello Silva, a renowned designer and creator. Going by the teasers, the MX-9 features a roadster design with an aggressive-looking faux fuel tank and what looks to be an upright riding position. Up front, the bike features a rounded LED headlamp with a small fly screen. The electric motorcycle will be suspended by a USD setup at the front and a mono-shock at the rear. The bike will ride on 17-inch wheels with disc brakes at both ends.

mXmoto says the MX9 will be equipped with a LifePO4 (Lithium Iron phosphate) battery pack, though specs are yet to be revealed. It will also incorporate a 60 AMP controller that will enable the bike to deliver optimum performance and feature regenerative braking.
