ONYX Is Back: Retro-Styled Electric Mopeds That Can Hit 55 MPH

The electric moped maker ONYX, known for its retro-inspired designs, has returned to the market. According to Electrek, the revived brand is once again offering bikes with a nostalgic look but modern electric performance.
The company’s models are capable of reaching speeds above 55 MPH, positioning them closer to lightweight motorcycles than typical city mopeds. That kind of top speed gives riders the option of keeping up with faster traffic, not just short neighborhood errands.
ONYX’s comeback adds another player to the growing electric two-wheeler segment, where buyers increasingly want vintage aesthetics paired with contemporary battery power. The brand’s relaunch suggests there is still appetite for small, stylish EVs that sit between e-bikes and full motorcycles.
