Remember that electric, condensed motorcycle that went viral for its big personality and bigger knobblies?

Well, if you ever wanted a two-wheeler like none other, we suggest the all-new Volcon Grunt Evo and Runt LT for yourself and your mini sapien of choice, because it’s official; these sub-285lb punch-packers are headed for our markets proper, and they’re likely to bring a whole slew of fun times with them.

Coverage from RideApart suggests that the next week or three is when the machines will be released to dealerships, with interested riders being able to start the build-a-bike experience as of four days ago (March 30).

The Volcon Grunt Evo (not to be confused with the KTM Super Duke 1290 Evo) will be knocking the teeth at $5,999 USD, with Desert Dune, Del Rio Red, or Bandit Black for color options; the Evo also sports a brand new Gates Carbon Belt Drive system as well as a swanky rear coilover shock to complement the Exo-Arch frame, 8.5-kilowatt electric motor, and 2.3 kilowatt-hour battery of the standard variant.

The Runt LT, by contrast, will be a nip and tuck at an MSRP of $3,495 USD, with “three drive modes plus reverse, a 43 mm inverted front fork, a rear monoshock with spring preload adjustability, a top speed of 35 miles per hour, and a claimed range of 25 miles on a single charge” – all singing to the tune of Desert Dune or Del Rio Red as the official livery. 

Are you gunning for a Volcon machine?
