Microlino is an all-electric, four-wheeled Quadricycle inspired by the Isetta, a bubble car from the 1950s. It was created in 2016 in collaboration between Microlino and CECOMP, as Microlino 1.0. In 2022, the more modern Microlino 2.0 arrived on the market, and now the Microlino Lite is presented, a version that will be able to be driven in most countries from the age of 16, and in France and Italy from the age of 14.
This version does not differ much in design from the Microlino 2.0, and customers will be able to choose between two body colors, Venice Blue and Berlin Anthracite. It is powered by an electric motor with 12 hp (9 kW) enough to reach a limited top speed of 45 km/h (28 mph). That is significantly less than the original, which has 17 hp (12.5 kW) and a top speed of 90 km/h (56 mph).
The car is equipped with a 6 kWh battery that enables a range of 90 km (56 miles), and customers can also choose an 11 kWh battery with a range of up to 177 km (110 miles). The battery can be charged up to 80 percent in just two hours.
When it comes to price, the Microlino Lite can be purchased on a four-year contract for CHF 149 ($169) per month. Sales will start soon.
