    82k Euros?! That's mad!!! No wonder these companies can't get their heads out of the gate. They're all missing the point of electric vehicles. Today anybody can build an electric bicycle in its garage for less than 1k dollars... Do for the electric vehicle what Henry Ford did for the automobile and soon your company will be listed in the Dow Jones.

    I said that too. Why have a learning curve. Install sensors to prevent accidental side tip overs. Most people that will buy that will be middle+ aged people that have money to spend. Lots will buy and even me if it has safety in mind and sensors that will make my driving more pleasant, without worrying when to put the landing gears down or up and the landing gears retract on a certain angle when turning. Sensors on speed can be done to have the Moto retract and detract those landing gears. And have a manual override for those that are more adventurous. I would want one but has to have the tech in it.

    I thought that too until I drove one. In practice it is too fine a feel for computers. Haven driven the previous model(Ecomobile), it becomes second nature. You never forget to put them down. But any vehicle the requires additional training to operate, even for experienced riders, will have limited commercial success. Those mentioning a gyroscopically controlled self-righting feature I think are on the right track. There is a similar type of commuter cycle I have seen online(prototype) that does this, so maybe in the next generation from Peraves they will do this.
