Küsnacht ZH – The Microlino electric city car has been street legal across Europe since summer 2018. Now, Micro Mobility Systems AG is working on the successor model. The Microlino 2.0 boasts better handling characteristics, among other improvements.

In summer 2018, the Microlino electric bubble car got approved for road use in Europe. Now, Micro Mobility Systems AG is working on a new model. The Microlino 2.0 shows big improvements in safety and better handling characteristics, as was revealed in a press release.

A first Microlino 2.0 prototype has reportedly already been completed. The integral body structure is made out of pressed steel and aluminum parts. The new Microlino therefore benefits from a higher stiffness and safety without increasing the weight, the innovative vehicle developer explains. By comparison, the body of Microlino 1.0 was based on a tubular frame.

A further four prototypes will be developed over the next few months. Micro Mobility will then start the homologation process to get the car street-legal. To save time, it will already start building up the pre-series vehicles.

“Developing a vehicle is extremely difficult and we have learned that the hard way,” the company explains in a press release. A few weeks after the new Microlino has the official papers, production can begin and the first cars be delivered.

The electric Microlino is a modern bubble car that seats two people. It features two battery options with a range of around 200km. Its top speed is 90km per hour.
