BMW recently released details about its new Motorcycle Active Cruise Control (ACC), bringing a popular automotive convenience feature to the two-wheeled realm. The new system, developed in cooperation with Bosch, is expected to debut on various BMW models in 2021. Similar systems are expected in 2021 from Ducati and Kawasaki.

ACC relieves the rider from having to manually adjust to the speed of the vehicle they are following when the cruise control is set, automatically regulating the motorcycle's speed to maintain a set distance.
