For those “kids” who never seem to grow up, the G3 has a 300 lb. max weight aluminum twin-spar frame and 6kW motor to ensure it moves “larger” riders. “Built for riders new and experienced, we included three speed stages to choose from: Stage 1 up to 17 mph, Stage 2 reaches 33 mph, and Stage 3 top out at 55 mph,” explains Chapman. Dual hydraulic disc brakes provide the whoa power for all that go power.

However he notes that it is the dealer support that really differentiates Greenger. “Not only are we focused on the showroom and driving consumers to it, we are also focused on amping up our back end. A new CRM system by Salesforce has been implemented to provide better account management and customization for each individual dealers’ needs. To capitalize on the technology, we have moved our website UI and hosting over to AppNet. A newly charged dealer portal allows the dealer to better manage their account and sales.”

With support of a dozen manufacturers and a total takeover of the demo by Tucker to introduce the media to their full range of EV offerings (including Ninebot karts). The eBike Pavilion and indoor demo course were the epicenter of the show for the ICE alternatives. Dealernews’ production manager Brenda Stiehl even snuck in for some hot laps around the demo course.

“Dealers considering adding eBikes to your sales floor, this was the place to try the products, ask the questions and get the information you need to grow your business,” said Andre Albert, director, marketing & events at AIMExpo. And he does mean GROW your business! The eBike market is estimated to grow from $49.7 billion in 2022 to $80.6 billion by 2027, according to market research platform MarketsandMarkets.

“AIMExpo’s eBike Pavilion brought new focus to this flourishing segment to the powersports industry,” added Albert. “E-bikes are unique in that they appeal to two customer bases and bring them together: consumers from traditional motorcycle and scooter markets, and traditional bicycle consumers.”

Greenger University powered by Brandecation and Greenger Dealer Social powered by Thumbstopper are among the tools offered to dealers and paid for by Greenger. “If our dealer is willing to invest their time and floor space into Greenger, we are willing to invest right back into them by providing the tools the dealer needs for its sales team and customers.”

Chapman concludes that Greenger is in it for the long haul. “In Q4 of 2022 Greenger was voted into the MIC as its second all-electric powersports OEM. Ensuring we support the industry and being a part of the future of powersports is important to us and core to our values as a company. Being voted in also shows the industry sees EV as a part of the next chapter.”

Rather than hedging their bet with a sure thing like the CRF-50 eBike, the guys at Greenger doubled-down at AIMExpo. The new G3 and G3s supermoto variant is built for kids of all ages… and available to all dealers, not just the Red riders. “This is unlike the homemade lawn mower engine pit bike we grew up riding,” says General Manager Doug Chapman. “This is the bike we wish we grew up riding.”

After a year on the gas, Capital Powersports charges into 2023 with the addition of three EV product lines from Greenger, Segway and Volcon. “With the increased demand for fresh and new product thinking, the addition of these all-electric and hybrid vehicles from these three new brands will help us jump start into the future with environmentally friendly, yet exciting new product,” says General Manager Kevin R Dunn. Founded in 2012, Capital Powersports is a full-service franchised dealer for Honda, Yamaha, Kawasaki, Suzuki… and now Greenger, Segway and Volcon serving the Wake Forest, NC area.
