SINGAPORE: From April, high-powered electric motorcycles may be used on Singapore's roads, in line with efforts to encourage the adoption of cleaner vehicles in the country. Under current regulations, only electric motorcycles with a power rating of no more than 10 kilowatts (kW) are allowed. Those motorcycles are also barred from use on expressways. However, from Apr 1, the Land Transport Authority (LTA) will allow motorcycles with power ratings of more than than 10kW to be ridden on the roads. Electric motorcycles with a top speed of at least 50kmh will also be allowed on expressways from next month. Announcing the move - as well as a slew of other measures to incentivise the adoption of electric vehicles - Senior Minister of State for Transport Janil Puthucheary said this was in line with efforts to update regulations to keep pace with technology. “Motorcyclists can then now do their part for the environment by choosing an electric model,” said Dr Janil during the … [Read more...] about High-powered electric motorcycles to be allowed on Singapore roads from April

"Women don’t need a hand-up or empowerment from brands. No motivational quotes to help them get out for a run or say, ‘It’s OK to eat a cupcake’,” says Joanna Turner, one of the three founders of London-based activewear brand LNDR, a label that took on Nike for infringing its intellectual property and won. “We wanted to create a brand around the lifestyle we wanted to live,” says Turner. “One that cut through all the marketing fluff and fast-fashion trends. We believe in better products and less of them. Women are smart and just want great products that make them look and feel good, pieces they can rely on so they can just get on with it.” AT LNDR, those standout pieces include everything from seamless, waist-to-ankle sculpting leggings and high-neck, long-line sports bras through to soft, yoga-ready, merino wool track pants, matching loose knits and funnel-neck, apres-ski jackets made with recycled polyester padding.

SINGAPORE: When contractor and part-time Grab driver Koh Jie Meng started driving an electric vehicle (EV) in 2019, he had to make special trips to a flatted factory in Ang Mo Kio every two to three days to charge the Hyundai Kona Electric, which he rented. The 30-year-old, who lives in a Housing and Development Board (HDB) flat in Yishun, would much prefer to slow-charge the car while it was parked for the night as some EV owners did elsewhere in their home garage. But as no such charging facilities were available at any of the car parks near him, he had to travel to the only fast-charging point in Singapore’s north back then — SP Group’s station at Techplace I — and take about an hour to recharge his EV. Sometimes, he would arrive at the spot only to find two other cars waiting in line to tap the two fast-charging pods available, setting him back by another 30 minutes or so before he could finally perform the chore and get back on the road. But such days are now behind … [Read more...] about The Big Read: After a decade of fits and starts, it’s all systems go for Singapore’s electric vehicle dream
