Mobility experts Biomega develop Denmark’s first electric car
Skibsted Ideation, the agency behind Biomega, the Danish bicycle brand is known for its high-design and electric bicycles launched its first 4-wheel EV at CIIE in Shanghai on November 5th, 2018. The concept car has been developed to take Biomega’s principles of social innovation, design thinking and urban mobility and apply them to the automotive industry. Biomega founder Jens Martin Skibsted, chairman of both the Danish Design Council and the World Economic Forum’s Mobility Forum, says, “We’ve been focused on urban mobility since the 90s. Biomega has always been about creating a paradigm shift in the way society imagines transportation. We feel that we are in an extremely strong position to design an EV that represents the frontier of the new mobility; the Biomega EV is the natural progression of our ongoing battle against the combustion car.” The new urban mobility The fundamental issue for the future of mobility is to get passengers and cargo from A to B in the most efficient way possible, minimising time, cost and power. The 4-door CUV is designed with 4 independent seats and extra legroom. Stripped-back to maximise space, this spacious EV uses minimal components and lightweight materials; its low weight improves its range, minimising battery consumption. The Biomega EV is, therefore, an affordable and sustainable solution to modern urban mobility.
