Infinite Machine

Personal electric vehicles for a post-car urban future.

What they build

The product

Infinite Machine designs and builds two-wheel electric vehicles for cities: the P1, a 65 mph electric motorcycle at $7,995, and Olto, a bike-lane-legal e-vehicle with a 35-mile range at $3,495. Both pair high-end industrial design with proprietary hardware and software.

Why it matters

The thesis

American mobility has been ceded to either Tesla or Chinese e-bike imports. A New York startup building premium, US-designed electric two-wheelers — with a16z American Dynamism backing — is exactly the kind of consumer-hardware reshoring story the movement needs.

Operating model

How it runs

A direct-to-consumer electric-vehicle manufacturer selling the Olto e-bike and P1 electric motorcycle online and through its Long Island City showroom, with test rides, direct delivery or pickup, financing, app-connected vehicle software, nationwide service partners, self-service repair guides, and spare parts. The company says dealer and retailer partnerships may be added in the future.

Revenue model

How it earns

Upfront vehicle sales (currently $3,495 for Olto and $7,995 for P1), consumer financing at checkout, and sales of batteries, chargers, racks, carriers, security hardware, apparel, and other accessories. Public materials also invite commercial opportunities, but do not disclose fleet pricing or a recurring software fee.

Strategic edge

Why it wins

Purpose-built urban vehicles combine distinctive industrial design with removable batteries, two-passenger layouts, connected apps, GPS/cellular theft protection, remote controls and diagnostics, and modular accessory mounting. The same brand covers both bike-lane and car-lane use cases while supporting customers through a nationwide service-partner network.
