Auto Expo 2023: Liger self-balancing e-scooter unveiled

Bookings for the Liger X and Liger X+ electric scooters with AutoBalancing tech will open by mid-2023.

Tech start-up Liger Mobility has unveiled what is said to be the world’s first self-balancing electric scooter at the ongoing Auto Expo 2023. The company plans to open bookings by mid-2023.

The Liger X and Liger X+ electric scooter come equipped with the company’s AutoBalancing tech, which was developed in-house. According to the company, the system is aimed to improve comfort and convenience by helping the rider balance the scooter at low speeds or when stationary.

The Liger e-scooter also comes with ReverseRide and Learner modes. The former enables the rider to reverse the scooter using the electric motor’s power, while the latter limits the top speed and enables AutoBalancing.

The Liger e-scooter comes with a liquid-cooled lithium-ion battery. The Liger X has a removable battery that offers a range of 60 km, while the Liger X+ comes with a non-detachable battery offering a maximum range of 100 km on a single charge. The charging time for both battery packs is 3 hours and 4.5 hours, respectively.

The Liger e-scooters come with 4G and GPS connectivity. They are equipped with a TFT display, offering features like turn-by-turn navigation, calls and messages. The scooters also support OTA updates.
