VeliMotor VMX8000-MX - 2026 Specifications and Reviews

The VeliMotor VMX8000-MX pairs a 25 kW peak permanent-magnet motor with an unusual feature for an electric dirtbike: a genuine 5-speed constant-mesh gearbox and manual multi-disc wet clutch, giving riders a familiar MX-style shift feel. An 80V/73Ah ternary lithium battery feeds the motor for a claimed 150-180 km range, while OHLINS-style adjustable suspension and a chrome-molybdenum steel cradle frame handle the terrain. Claimed performance is a 140 km/h top speed and 0-100 km/h in 5.0 seconds.

Rider Profile

Best ForSuits riders who already know how to work a clutch and gearbox - the manual multi-disc clutch and 5-speed gearbox make this a more involved ride than a typical twist-and-go electric dirtbike.
PurposeA performance off-road machine for riders who want the engagement of a geared motocross bike with electric powertrain simplicity underneath.
Rider FitAt 132 kg with a 930 mm seat height, it's on the heavier and taller side for an electric dirtbike, better suited to larger or more experienced riders.
CharacterAn electric MX bike that deliberately keeps the clutch-and-gearbox riding experience of a combustion dirtbike.
Not Ideal ForNot for beginners unfamiliar with manual clutch/gearbox operation, and not built for road use or touring.

2026 VeliMotor VMX8000-MX Rider Ergonomics Assessment

Calculated in your browser only - your height/inseam are never sent to our servers.

Feet:

At 930mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will not reach the ground comfortably on the 2026 VeliMotor VMX8000-MX, with a cramped knee angle of around 80 degrees and an upright riding position.

Data quality: measured. Assumes about 30mm of suspension sag once seated (a typical street-bike rule of thumb - stiffer or softer suspension will vary). This is an approximation from category-typical geometry and generic body proportions, not a measurement of this specific bike or you - sit on it before you buy.
