Bosch is making e-bike batteries lockable via an app to deter theft | TechCrunch
Briefly

Bosch's new feature allows e-bike batteries to automatically lock via the Flow+ app, preventing their unauthorized use. If stolen, a lock will disable the motor support.
The feature enhances security by ensuring that if a thief tries to use a stolen Bosch battery, it will not function and will disable the bike's motor, rendering it unusable.
This innovation includes digital keys for friends and family, allowing them to ride while maintaining security. It will be available as an over-the-air update in summer.
Bosch's CES 2025 announcements also highlight an AI-driven charge management feature, letting users set desired battery levels for their rides, showcasing their tech advancements.
