TWIKE
Twike builds ultra-efficient, three-wheeled electric vehicles that combine pedal power with a battery-electric drivetrain.
Twike is a German mobility startup developing lightweight, human-electric hybrid vehicles engineered for energy efficiency and low-impact commuting. Their vehicles feature a three-wheeled chassis, a recumbent pedal generator system, and battery packs that offer between 150–500 km of range. The flagship model, Twike 5, reaches up to 190 km/h and supports DC fast charging, with production limited to 500 units. Twike 6 aims to scale this concept with broader accessibility and reduced manufacturing costs. Founded in 1998 and backed by a community-driven investment model, Twike merges electric mobility with active riding for a new kind of personal transport.

Product
Twike integrates a pedal-powered generator with a battery-electric drivetrain, allowing riders to contribute physical effort to extend range and reduce energy consumption. The hybrid system supports up to 200 W of human input, making it both energy-efficient and health-conscious.
With a mass under 600 kg and a fully enclosed, aerodynamic body, Twike vehicles minimize drag and energy use. The battery pack — up to 30 kWh — is integrated into the floor for stability, offering up to 500 km of range depending on configuration.
