Lit Motors Will Shake Up The Electric Vehicle Market With Its Two-Wheeled, Untippable C-1
The recent influx of both high- and low-end EVs and electric motorcycles have shown promise but current battery technology is still limiting, and the cost of entry is far too high with the benefits of switching from petrol-powered vehicles not being quite as obvious or apparent in the near term.Now imagine a vehicle that's smaller than a Smart Car, nearly a third of the price of a Nissan Leaf ($32,500), safer than a motorcycle with a range capacity that just lets you drive and won't ever tip over? What you get is Lit Motor's C-1, launching at TechCrunch Disrupt SF today, the world's first gyroscopically-stabilized two-wheeled all-electric vehicle. Oh, and it will talk to your smartphone and the cloud. Did I mention that you can't tip this thing over? (I've tried.)Original Link: http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/Techcrunch/~3/GFhQRBfJWhM/
