Toronto-based electric motorcycle maker Beachman has secured the first tranche of its Series A funding round. The investors are Paul and Melissa Meehan, the husband-and-wife team who built NÜTRL into Canada's top-selling vodka soda before selling it to Labatt in 2020. Beachman offers the 1960s California-styled '64 and is developing a second model, the Aviator. The funds will go toward North American expansion and entry into Europe.

Technically this is still more about the business stage than product details. Toronto's Beachman has secured its first tranche of Series A funding, aimed at North American expansion and European entry. The fact they're the first electric two-wheeler maker to gain federal approval in Canada in 80 years shows just how high the barrier to entry is, and how significant clearing it is, I believe.

A North American startup's EV called the Aviator or whatever - wonder what it'll cost.

Kind of an old-school scrambler vibe. I don't hate this retro-electric thing.

There's definitely demand for classic-style electrics - quiet and perfect for city riding.

"First tranche of a Series A" - all depends on the actual amount, doesn't it.

That '64 with the '60s California vibe - the design really gets me.

Funding an electric bike with vodka money is a hilariously random connection.

Cake went under already, so I'm kind of worried whether these electric startups can keep going.
