    a groundbreaking and completely

    version, the path from A to B in the
    future will be cleaner, faster, quieter
    and more space efficient.

    We have an exciting time ahead of
    us until the scheduled start of series
    production at the end of this year.
    After all, we want to offer more
    than just a smart vehicle. While
                                              Is in full swing.
    functionality and practicality are
    important, these aspects must also
    be paired with the design and look.
    Our Bio-Hybrids should not only be
    emission-free and modern, but also
    be fun to drive and look good. Our
    design team has done a great job
    with this. Among other accolades,

    There is no single, perfect means of transportation for our cities. The future
    belongs to a finely tuned co-existence of diverse systems. The Bio-Hybrid is
    one of them.

    Livable cities require new forms of transportation. The Bio-Hybrid is fun,
    trendy, eco-friendly, healthy, connected and space-saving.

    New forms of available mobility will change the infrastructure in our cities.
    The Bio-Hybrid can be ridden on the bike path without a driving licence
    and closes the gap between bicycles and cars.

    As cities keep growing, so will the transportation of goods. The Bio-Hybrid
    passes the traffic jam emission-free.

    part of the planning of future neighborhoods and campuses.
