Self-Driving Scooter? Omoway's Omo X Redefines Electric Two-Wheelers
Omoway, founded by ex-Xpeng executives, launched the Omo X, an electric scooter boasting automotive-grade autonomous features. The Omo X, showcased in Jakarta, autonomously drove onto the stage using its "Halo Pilot" system, which includes adaptive cruise control, remote summoning, self-parking, and automatic reversing. Beyond autonomous driving, it features collision warning, emergency brake assist, blind-spot monitoring, and V2V communication. Its modular frame adapts to various riding styles. Launching in early 2026 at approximately €3,500, it targets a market above entry-level but below premium e-scooters. While innovative, its success hinges on balancing advanced tech with the affordability and practicality prioritized in key markets like Indonesia, where it's initially launching.
