Our Story - Volta Motorcycles
The Volta Way
At Volta, we believe the future of two-wheeled transportation is electric — but it shouldn’t be out of reach. Our solution is e-bikes & mopeds that are powerful, efficient, and affordable. Designed by riders, for riders, Volta is here to change how people move — whether it's your daily commute, weekend trail ride, or first step into electric freedom.
Our approach is simple:
- Strip away overpriced complexity
- Keep the riding experience raw and real
- Give you more value, more performance, and more freedom for less
We partner with trusted global powertrain manufacturers, then customize, test, and support each vehicle here. We’re builders, riders, and believers in what’s next. Volta is about ownership without compromise, and a community that rides forward, together.
Our Story - A Dream to Change the Industry
Meet The Founder - Wesley Ross | CEO
My name is Wesley Ross, and I’m the founder of Volta Motorcycles. At my core, I’m an electrical engineer, entrepreneur, and lifelong gearhead with a passion for speed and innovation.
I’ve been chasing entrepreneurship since middle school—starting with small ventures like selling snacks, reselling shoes, and running neighborhood lawn care services with my friends. After moving from Georgia to Minnesota in 2017, I built NorthStar Dynamics, a government contracting firm that helped supply PPE nationwide during the COVID-19 crisis. These experiences taught me how to identify gaps in the market and create real solutions.
That same drive fuels Volta Motorcycles. I founded Volta to eliminate the barriers stopping riders from going electric—outrageous prices, underwhelming performance, and limited options. While many electric transportation companies focus on flashy marketing or luxury price tags, I focus on what matters: speed, efficiency, and range at a price real riders can afford. Volta exists to make electric riding accessible, exciting, and inevitable.
