Chinese startup Davinci Dynamics will officially unveil the first model of the DC100 e-bike, the characteristics of which will allow it to compete with traditional bikes in the 1000cc class. The motorcycle is also positioned as a dynamic robot that optimizes handling and ensures safety while driving.
According to the developers, the DC100 has a “minimalist design and outstanding performance” with a peak power of 100.75 kW (137 hp) and a maximum torque of 850 Nm. The most interesting function is autonomous control using an application for smartphones. The DC100 motorcycle can be driven to the designated location and is balanced using a six-axis system linked to electronic power steering.
The autonomous operation of the DC100 electric motorcycle is provided by a lithium battery (17.7 kWh) with a high energy density, which guarantees up to 400 km of mileage on a single battery charge. The use of high-speed charging of the third level allows you to charge the battery from 0 to 100% in just half an hour.
The DC100’s integrated control system delivers instant acceleration at every corner, as well as simple and optimal braking for the increased safety and control. A special mode allows the motorcycle to move at a speed of only 7 km/h, which is optimal for urban driving.
The DC100 also features a regenerative braking system that recharges the battery. The braking system combines ABS, CBS, and TCS and is controlled with a single lever. In the future, all technical documentation and software for the DC100 will be made publicly available, allowing the owners to customize their motorcycle.
Since July 17th, pre-orders for the base model DC100 are open for $27,500. The DC100 flagship motorcycle with enhanced functionality and calfskin seats will be available for $90,000.
