Electric mobility discussions often focus on cars—range, charging points, purchase incentives—but one key player is quietly reshaping urban mobility: the electric bike.

The benefits of e-bikes over electric cars

  • Lower energy consumption per kilometer.

A new vision for our cities

More e-bikes mean cleaner air, quieter streets, and livelier public spaces. They’re not just an add-on to electric mobility—they’re a core solution for cities that prioritize people over cars.
