Microlino

The Microlino is an all-electric, lightweight, four-wheeled quadricycle, marketed by Micro Mobility Systems, designed for urban mobility. It has a front-opening door and externally mounted wing mirror headlights. The Microlino has two seats, a trunk, a folding sunroof and can be charged with either a household or a type 2 plug.

The Microlino is a lightweight quadricycle (L7e), to combine aspects of a car and motorcycle. Due to its engineering process, the Microlino has 50% fewer parts than a typical automobile and weighs 513 kilograms.

In 2022, after the 2016 Geneva Motor Show, the company launched a lawsuit against a copycat manufacturer and began an extensive redesign process. A special introductory edition was projected for manufacture in mid-2022, at the company's factory in Turin.

Overview
Micro Mobility Systems debuted the Microlino at the 86th Geneva Motor Show in 2016. The vehicle's concept was developed with the Zurich University of Applied Sciences. The idea for the Microlino originated from Wim, Oliver, and Merlin Ouboter, the Swiss family behind the Micro Kickscooter, and the car was initially produced in China.

They designed a vehicle for space-saving and efficient urban mobility. The Microlino is designed to be as small and maneuverable as a motorcycle while offering protection against rough weather. The design is similar to 1950s Isetta bubble cars.



Concepts
The Microlino Lite and Microlino Spiaggina are two concepts presented at the 2022 Paris Motor Show, previewing future production models.

Production
In 2019 a collaboration between Microlino and CECOMP, an Italian automotive company established in 1978, was started in order to refine both the design as well as the engineering of the Microlino 1.0 to the more modern Microlino 2.0. Cecomp is also the manufacturing partner for series production.
