LITO SORA Generation 2
« on: May 08, 2019, 07:57:54 PM »

LITO has introduced a upgrade to their SORA model, called the Generation 2.  Lots of carbon fiber, special parts and twice the battery capacity of the older version.  But the price of this new model will make your eyes water:

I saw this at the Quail gathering and spoke with their representative. They indicated that the price rise is so they can be taken seriously by the high-end market segment they want.

They spoke of having regional service technicians already in place and direct customer service contacts. So, very high touch.

The specifications look good, but the charger, at 3kW, is definitely not positioning it as anything but a toy, being too expensive for the average daily rider.
