The Davinci DC100 high performance electric motorbike from Chinese outfit Davinci Motors had made its official debut in China – and it could be on its way to the UK.
Chinese start-up Davinci Motors offers a small number of electric motorbikes, with the DC100 being the first model that the firm has put through its production line in Zibo, China.
The striking performance orientated bike has a peak power output 100kW and a top speed of 200kmph (124mph). Impressively, the DC100 has a claimed WLTP range of 222 miles.
Davinci Motors has also equipped the e-motorbike with level three fast charging meaning the DC100 can be charged in around 30 minutes.

Packed full of technology, the DC100 was designed as a “robotic concept” and is able to track accurate information such as ambient temperature, battery and motor temperature, lean angle and road conditions.
Alongside its sensing capabilities, Davinci Motors has added a number of assist features to “address the difficulty of riding a heavy-duty motorcycle”.
The DC100 has a number of ride-assist features including hill start assist control, hill descent control and reverse assist. It also has a traction control system.
The firm has also promised more features that will come at a later date, including a self-levelling system.
