Orange County Choppers goes electric

The video you're watching isn't the electric chopper built by Orange County Choppers, but Paul Teutal Sr. has been showing off the Siemens Smart Chopper that he did build, a chopper built for Siemens to display their technical prowess.

According to Teutal Sr., the Smart Chopper has a range of around 60 miles and can do up to 100mph. He also claims it costs over $1,000,000.

We can believe that, but we can't believe his claim that it's the first custom American electric chopper. And that's the reason for the video above - this fella beat you to it Mr Teutal Sr. and we bet he got some change from $1m too..
