This data is used to "precisely control its power system" and ensure optimal performance under all conditions. In addition, the DC100 has digital key technology for added convenience.
The DC100 is packed with high-tech features, including a kinetic energy recovery system and over-the-air updates. It also has a number of safety features, such as a traction control system. Davinci Motor has also promised to add even more advanced features in the future, including a self-balancing function and the ability to park and call the bike remotely. The company is also promising a "self-riding and target recognition" feature that will allow the motorcycle to automatically follow a target selected by the rider.
According to Davinci Motor, the DC100 is estimated to cost $27,500. The company sees the CES conference as the perfect opportunity for potential buyers to get a feel for the product for the first time, as well as for potential U.S. dealers and distributors to get a first look. It will be interesting to see how the market responds to this high-priced, high-tech electric motorcycle.
