The world’s first self-balancing e-scooter, a device that promises to make riding a two-wheeler safer, was unveiled at the ongoing Auto Expo 2023 in Greater Noida. The self-balancing e-scooter is considered to bring a revolutionary change in personal transportation. It has been developed by a team of engineers and designers at Liger Mobility, a tech start-up. It uses advanced sensors and algorithms to monitor and adjust the balance, making it almost impossible to fall. This means the riders would not have to worry about losing their balance and trip over, even while going at a low speed or on uneven terrain. It is suitable for beginners as well. The vehicle has a powerful electric motor which can reach a speed of up to 30 kilometres per hour, making it ideal for short and city trips. It can go up to 60 kilometres on a single charge and can be fully charged in just two hours. The e-scooter also comes with several advanced features such as GPS, LED lights, and a wireless charging pad. It features a built-in security system that can track its location in case of a theft. The makers of the e-scooter said they are planning to launch it in the market by the end of this year and the price is expected to be competitive with its conventional competitors.
