Self-Balancing Electric Motorbikes

The 'DC100' Can Maintain Stability On Assorted Terrain

— July 28, 2021 — Autos
Da Vinci Dynamics, based in the Chinese capital city of Beijing, has launched a truly exceptional electric motorbike that offers a range of genuinely futuristic features including the ability to self-balance itself.

By using electronic power steering as well as a six-axis inertial measurement unit system, the DC100 electric motorbike is said to be capable of staying stable and balanced without the need for human intervention. This is a much-needed system considering the motorbike's ability to zoom along from zero to 100 km/h in less than four seconds, its maximum peak torque of 627 pounds-feet and exceptional range of 400 kilometers.

Elsewhere, this futuristic electric motorcycle also offers such features as slow reverse, angle alerts and hill-start assist, making for exceptionally comfortable and easy riding, as well as technology-based convenience in the form of a companion app.
