MICRO electric bubble car

Micro unveiled a retro-style electric car as part of near-future micro-transport in cities, project. Micro has been named the 5th most innovative company in Europe by Fast Company in its prestigious World’s Most Innovative Companies awards for 2020. Previous winners include firms like Apple, Novartis and Patagonia.

“It is a great honour for us to be featured in the list among so many inspiring and innovative companies as a small Swiss family-owned company,” says Wim Ouboter, who founded Micro in 1999.

The second generation of the electric city car Microlino was presented at the beginning of March with an all-new design and improved performance. This tiny 100% electric car uses less energy in production and use than any other car. With 200km (125 miles) range it uses 65% less energy than other electric cars driving from A to B. 

This funny two seater has one door in the front like the BMW Isetta from the 50' . It has 50% fewer components that result in lower maintenance costs. It fully charges in 4 hours and can drive a max speed of 55 Mph. It's available to pre-order from the MICRO website.
