If you have been researching electric motocross bikes, you have probably seen the Altis Omega and the Stark Varg MX come up in the same sentence. Both are full-size electric dirt bikes built for serious riding. Both are generating real interest from riders who are done with gas. But they sit at very different price points, and the gap between them raises a fair question: what are you actually getting for the difference?
This comparison is based on publicly available specs and what we know from having the Omega in our lineup. We sell the Altis Omega at VoroMotors, so we have a stake in the answer, and we are going to be straight with you about what that means.
The Price Gap Is Real and It Is Large
The Altis Omega Standard starts at $7,899. The Stark Varg MX goes for around $13,000 depending on configuration. That is more than a $5,000 difference. At that gap, the question is not just "which bike is better" but "what does five thousand dollars buy you, and do you need it."
For most riders, the answer is probably not. But let's look at what that money actually represents before drawing a conclusion.
Power and Performance
The Omega runs a 55kW hairpin motor producing 74 horsepower and 1,054 Nm of wheel torque. Top speed is 80 plus mph. The Stark Varg MX is rated at around 80 horsepower in peak output.
On paper, the Varg has a modest power advantage. In practice, the difference in peak output between 74hp and 80hp is not something most riders will feel during a normal moto. Electric motors deliver torque differently than gas, and both of these bikes produce more low-end punch than anything with a combustion engine at the same displacement class. The Omega's 1,054 Nm at the rear wheel is not a number that leaves riders wanting.
Where the Varg has historically had an advantage is in the calibration and tuning of that power, particularly in how the powerplant responds in different riding conditions. Stark has had more time in the market refining their delivery. The Omega is newer, but the ride mode system, with Eco, Normal, Sport, and Race settings adjustable directly from the 4-inch TFT display, gives riders real control over how aggressive the power comes on.
Battery, Range, and Charging
The Omega carries a 5,040Wh semi-solid state battery on the 144V platform. Rated range is 75 miles. Charge time from 20 to 80 percent is approximately 2 hours.
The Stark Varg uses a smaller battery by capacity. Published range figures from Stark have varied depending on riding intensity, and real-world motocross riding on either bike will come in below the rated range. This is true of every electric dirt bike on the market. At race pace on a track, plan for fewer miles than the spec sheet suggests on both.
On battery capacity alone, the Omega's 5,040Wh pack is one of the largest in any production electric dirt bike currently available. That is a genuine advantage if range between sessions matters to you.
Suspension and Chassis
The Omega Standard comes with fully adjustable factory suspension, 250mm of front travel, and full-size motocross geometry with a 21-inch front wheel and 18-inch rear. The Pro version upgrades to KYB forks and race-ready rear suspension, which is the same hardware found on factory-level motocross teams.
The Stark Varg MX also uses premium suspension components. At the $13,000 price point, you are getting high-end hardware as standard. The Omega Pro, priced below the Varg, closes that gap substantially in suspension quality. If you are comparing the Omega Standard against the Varg MX, the Varg's suspension hardware is better. If you are comparing the Omega Pro against the Varg MX, the gap narrows significantly.
Weight
The Omega weighs 253 pounds. Full-size electric motocross bikes carry battery weight that gas bikes do not, and both the Varg and the Omega reflect that reality. The Omega's weight is in line with what you would expect from a bike built on this voltage platform with a battery of this capacity. It is heavier than smaller trail ebikes, but it handles like a full-size MX bike should because that is exactly what it is.
Not Street Legal, Either of Them
Neither the Altis Omega nor the Stark Varg MX is designed for street use. Both are built for off-road riding on tracks, trails, and closed courses. If street legality is part of your equation, neither bike belongs on this list.
Who Should Buy Which
The Stark Varg MX is the right answer for a specific kind of buyer: someone who competes seriously, wants the most refined electric motocross experience currently available, and for whom $5,000 more is not a deciding factor. It has more time in the market, a strong racing pedigree, and hardware that reflects its price.
The Altis Omega is the right answer for a broader group of riders: intermediate to advanced riders who want a full-size electric motocross bike that competes with the Varg in raw power and range, without paying the Varg's premium. The Omega Pro closes the suspension gap. The Alpha, launching in December 2026 at 100hp on a 360V system, will extend that lineup further for riders who want factory-level performance as the platform matures.
At $7,899 for the Standard or the Pro pricing for KYB suspension, the Omega gives you access to the full-size electric motocross experience at a price point that more riders can realistically reach.
Try It Before You Decide
If you are weighing a purchase at this level, the decision deserves more than a spec sheet comparison. VoroMotors has physical locations where you can see the Altis Omega in person, and our team knows the bike well enough to walk you through the differences between trims and help you figure out which version makes sense for how and where you ride.
Reach out by phone, live chat, or email. If you are near one of our locations, come in. The Omega is a serious machine and we want you to feel confident before you commit to it.
