C-1: Future safety two-wheeler which can balace itself?

C-1

    A two wheeler with four wheeler safety and comfort? That's actually a good sign from Lit motors. Lit motors is based in California.This two wheeler can balance itself! Yes you read it right.With the next generation technology the two wheeler can balance itself. And also it has steering as in the car not like the handle bar as the normal two wheeler. C-1 can achieve top speed upto 190Km/hour!! which the Indian bikes have not touched that mark.



    C-1 has electronically controlled gyroscopes which is located under the floor which puts out over 1,300 lb/ft (1,762 Nm) of torque which balances the vehicle while in stationary. Because of this the two wheeler stands upright even pushed forcefully or even when it collides.The vehicle uses 40KW electric motor. It can run upto 120miles(~190km).

    The company has given nick name as 'rolling smart phone' because of its connectivity features. Information about traffic, adverse weather condition etc will be transmitted to the vehicle. This helps the rider to plan his route. Lit motors expect to launch the vehicle by the end of 2014. It has got very good features so one cant expect to be cheap. It's going to cost $16,000 (Rs. 9 lakhs approx). Lets hope for this kind of bike(two wheeler) in future with affordable price
