At the heart of the Carver One lies the Dynamic Vehicle Control (DVC) system which automatically adjusts the tilt angle of the cockpit to the speed and acceleration of the vehicle. The power of the system lies in the fact that it is a simultaneous system enabling an ideal plane-like ‘tilting before corning’rather than a reactive system that, by definition, would act too late.

The DVC allows slender tilting vehicles to have an enclosed drivers compartment.

Cool, but I see a couple faults.  The pair of lights, front and rear, would look especially in the dark like a car that's farther away.  Jeeps have the same problem.  Nearly all bikes have the ability to add a passenger.  Does this one?  Where ya gonna put the babe, who is all agog over your cool tech, wants to go for a ride, and you'd like to take her home (or somewhere)?  I'm sure those are minor fixable issues.  At least by the factory.

It has two seats.

It's been around for awhile.  I thought they would've gone widely available by now.

I believe that Carver website is obsolete as it is only copyrighted to 2015. Here's the current offering.
