Stadsgerichtheid, \u00e9\u00e9n zitplaats en geen uitstoot door een aandrijflijn op batterijen zijn de belangrijkste kenmerken van de Mibot van KG Motors. Deze Japanse start-up wil elektrische mobiliteit opnieuw uitvinden door de kei-auto naar een nieuw tijdperk te tillen. De afmetingen zijn zo klein dat het voertuig in een bestelwagen past.<\/p>

Japan moet het hoofd bieden aan dichtbevolkte steden, een vergrijzende bevolking en veranderende mobiliteit. KG Motors, dat relatief traag is met het invoeren van elektrische voertuigen, gelooft dat het het juiste antwoord heeft gevonden: eentje die kleiner, eenvoudiger en slimmer is. Maak kennis met de Mibot, een elektrische minicar met \u00e9\u00e9n zitplaats. Volgens de makers is het meer een robot dan een auto.<\/p>
