Quote:Using electronically-controlled gyroscopes located under the floor – generating over 1,300 ft.-lb. of torque – the C-1 balances at a stop and stays upright, even in a collision. In-hub, direct-drive electric motors (20 kW) provide power and regeneration, while center-hub steering keeps you pointed in the right direction.
With a top speed of 100+ MPH and battery packs providing up to 200 miles per charge, the C-1 is perfect for commuters and city dwellers alike.
Cool tech but more stuff to go wrong. I have to admit that 200 miles on a charge is better than most electrics I've been seeing out there, as well as a higher top speed than I need. That would honestly be a useful daily commuter if it's not overly expensive and that's the gotcha in the deal.
