Welcome to the Future of High-Altitude Riding!
In a stunning leap for electric motorcycles, the Stark Varg EX has proven that it can accomplish feats that traditional gas bikes can only dream about – like, say, breathing at high altitudes. Not just any high altitude; we’re talking about the jaw-dropping Los Ojos del Salado, the world’s tallest active volcano! It’s here that Swiss mountaineer-rider Jiri Zak made history, riding the Varg EX up to a staggering 6,721 meters (22,051 feet). Yes, that’s right, almost 7,000 meters! Try doing that on a gas bike without gasping for air.
A New Dawn for Electric Mobility
On November 30, 2025, Zak embarked on this historic ride in an environment known for sub-zero temperatures and thin air, a true test of man and machine. Forget about those cumbersome gas engines that lose power when the air thins out; the Varg EX, with its electric driveline magic, delivered full torque even where combustion engines quit on breathing. “Two years ago this was just a dream,” Zak admitted. And dream he did, with a team he trusted, and a motorcycle designed to defy all odds.
Riding the Edge of the Atmosphere
The thrill doesn’t stop at just the altitude. The real twist? No gear shifting! The electric motorcycle simplifies high-altitude riding with seamless power delivery, an innovation that leaves gas bikes snorting in the dust. Stark Future CEO Anton Wass encapsulated the mission perfectly, stating, “It’s about proving that electric is not a compromise; it takes you further than any other combustion bike could.” Talk about a victory lap! With the data under third-party verification and Guinness World Records authentication in the works, one thing is clear: the future of electric bikes is brilliantly bright and proudly high!
