Indian EV startup debuts self-balancing electric scooters at Auto Expo 2023

Liger X and Liger X+ self-balancing scooters

Liger X and X+ electric scooters debut the company’s cutting-edge AutoBalancing technology at the Auto Expo 2023. This feature allows the electric scooters to stand upright while still as well as at low speeds without the rider having to support the vehicle with their feet. The feature is functional even while reversing. The feature has various levels of controllability and can be manually switched off after it has crossed a certain speed. The Liger X twins also have a Learner Mode which limits the scooter’s speed to the level up to which the AutoBalancing technology is still active.
