There is a lot of talk about electric cars but not so much about motorcycles that enjoy this condition. Even so, the market exists and is becoming larger and more attractive as Segway now shows with its new Apex H2 model with a hydrogen battery . This is this futuristic proposal that wants to be on the roads in just two years.
Segway Apex H2, design and technology
Anyone would say that it was taken from a movie set in the future (a very promising one, of course). We are talking about the new Apex H2, a motorcycle with a hybrid configuration that has the particularity of betting on a hydrogen battery .
With a striking design, with very curved lines and where there is no fear of betting on striking lighting in greens, yellows and blues, the motorcycle has an electric motor that produces 60 kW, which is equivalent to 80 hp . With this, you will be able to roll at 150 km per hour as the maximum speed, going from 0 to 100 in just 4 diving seconds.
The images you see obviously belong to renders since the bike has only been officially presented in a conceptual way at the moment. Its design, however, is based on a previous idea presented two years ago, remembered in Híbridos y Eléctricos , and also this model will serve as the basis for other future projects of the firm within the segment, in which it seems to have much more interest. of which he was presumed at first.
Even with all this, do not think that the Apex H2 motorcycle will fall on deaf ears: Segway has confirmed its intentions to market it and make it accessible to the general public, much earlier than you could imagine at first.
Price and date of sale
We are used to seeing many proposals within the motor world that then never dress long and that only serve to show off certain technologies and make a mark.
That is why with this Apex H2 you have thought that the same thing will happen and that it is one more idea of the manufacturer of the day that will never see the light later. Nothing could be further from the truth, luckily. The truth is that Segway does intend to put this smooth-wheeled hybrid motorcycle on the road, so we end up seeing it on the street sooner rather than later.
This has been confirmed by the Chinese company itself, which ensures that it wants to have its units in circulation within just two years, that is, in 2023.
His first market for sale, of course, will be China, his homeland, where the Apex H2 should be sold for 70,000 yuan (which is about 9,000 euros at the exchange rate). Of course, it is not usual for a brand to even dare to give prices with such a margin of time, which could well indicate that it will be firm in its commercialization promise and that the plan is still 100% ahead. Luckily we won’t have to wait too long to check it out.
