About Lito
Country of Origin:
Canada
Founder:
Jean-Pierre Legris (LITO Green Motion)
Best Known For:
SORA—high-end electric cafe/cruiser with carbon bodywork and adjustable ergonomics
Company History
LITO Green Motion’s SORA is a boutique electric motorcycle built with Quebecois craftsmanship: carbon fiber bodywork, billet details, and an ingenious adjustable seat that shifts from cafe crouch to relaxed cruiser at the touch of a button. The bike focuses on premium EV experience—smooth, silent thrust; regenerative braking; and well-managed thermal behavior—wrapped in luxury finishes. Volumes are small and pricing high, but owners buy into concierge-like support and the rarity of a hand-built EV that feels cohesive rather than experimental. Over time, LITO refined BMS logic, weather sealing, and service documentation to match real-world use in Canada’s harsh climate. Historically, LITO shows how electrics can carry luxury cues convincingly: fit-and-finish, tactile interfaces, and designs that don’t apologize for being different. The SORA also demonstrates how thoughtful ergonomics can expand an EV’s mission from city hops to longer, mixed-pace rides—quiet sophistication with a distinctly Canadian sense of endurance.
