Dubai: The world’s fastest motorcycle has found its way to Dubai, and its breaking records for more than just its speed.
The Autonomous Street Racer holds the world-record in its class for acceleration times, reaching speeds of up to 300 km/h, but most importantly – its driverless.
Nerve, the Danish company that invented the bike, are currently touring Dubai to forge relationships with the public and private sector with the hope of implementing the technology locally.
The motorcycle is currently on display for the 2nd International Conference on Future Mobility, which runs from 14-15 November 2016 at the Grand Hyatt Dubai.
During the conference, Nerve Founder and chief technology officer Soeren Ekelund shed light on the balance between people, society and technology in an effort to fuel discussion on how technology can be used to drive Dubai’s Smart City ambitions.
Ekelund said: “These are really exciting times in the world of transport and mobility. Sustainable development is forcing everyone to rethink the concept of public and private transportation. The vehicles of the future have to be more flexible, stronger, faster, smarter and greener."
The driverless motorcycle was previously showcased at the NaTrans Expo that was held in Abu Dhabi last month.
"It’s no longer sufficient to think about how a vehicle meets the needs of an individual – how it gets him or her from A to B – rather, we need to consider the requirements of society as a whole,” said Ekelund.
He added: “It’s a privilege to be part of this automotive revolution, and we’re looking to Dubai very closely as a fertile breeding ground for the smart technologies of tomorrow”.
