Finding pockets of value and opportunity

AUTOMATED VEHICLES
was not just a test track, but also a hill (which could
have turned into a jump, but they asked me not to
jump; yes, I asked if I could). It was great fun seeing
several people in suits and skirts, pop on a helmet
and go for a ride. I went as fast as seemed safe, and
at the end was ready to see if I could somehow sneak
a $5 grand ebike onto my trip expense report without
anyone noticing. (Ok, yes, I thought about it, but
didn't attempt it...this time!)
A rapidly growing list of companies populate the
rapidly expanding global two-wheeled market space.
Many new companies have popped up seemingly
overnight that focus just on ebike technologies. Many
other global multi-sector players with solid name
recognition in other sectors - such as Bosch (Bosch
eBike Systems), which supplies drive units and other
accessories worldwide, and Serial 1, which is Harley
Davidson's offering to the micromobility market.
Several companies showcased electric cargo bikes
with the clear message that the light delivery truck is
no longer the only option for delivery of goods -
especially in crowded, busy streets and in large
complexes such as airports and factories where a
constant stream of goods are transported.
A compelling new market crossover class offering is
emerging: ebikes that seem more like motorcycles. A
Dutch company, Breker, showed off an ebike that can
accelerate over 40 km/h and travel 160 km when
running on two batteries.
As with so many topics and sectors, traditional
boundaries and silos are rapidly changing, and it's
always fascinating to see evolution in action and
wonder what surprises will be seen and experienced
at CES 2023. n
