The TwoZero is a new electric vehicle that can theoretically serve as a car alternative, especially in the city. Depending on local regulations and laws, users might be able to drive this EV without a license or registration.

The TwoZero is a new electric vehicle that’s now available as part of a crowdfunding campaign on Kickstarter. Backers can reserve a unit for roughly $8,000. It’s worth noting that crowdfunding projects always involve significant financial risks for supporters. In the worst case, backers may lose their money and won’t get the product in return.
That said, the TwoZero should be legally classified as an electric bicycle in most countries. As such, it would not require registration, insurance or a driver’s license in many places. The vehicle can hit a top speed of up to about 15 mph, but only when the rider is actively pedaling. The continuous output is specified at 250 watts, while the battery has a capacity of 866Wh and can be quickly replaced. Under ideal conditions, the e-bike offers a range of up to about 37 miles.
In urban environments, this EV might be an alternative to a car as it provides protection from poor weather. The four wheels might also be suitable for slippery surfaces and should prevent the e-bike from tipping over under normal circumstances. Either way, this unconventional vehicle weighs about 203 lbs and has some space for luggage behind the rider, which can also be useful for a baby seat. A bike trailer can also be attached, and last but not least, each of the four wheels has its own independent suspension.

I have been active as a journalist for over 10 years, most of it in the field of technology. I worked for Tom’s Hardware and ComputerBase, among others, and have been working for Notebookcheck since 2017. My current focus is particularly on mini PCs and single-board computers such as the Raspberry Pi – so in other words, compact systems with a lot of potential. In addition, I have a soft spot for all kinds of wearables, especially smartwatches. My main profession is as a laboratory engineer, which is why neither scientific contexts nor the interpretation of complex measurements are foreign to me.

My fascination for technology goes back a long way to the Pentium II era. Modding, overclocking and treasuring computer hardware has since become an integral part of my life. As a student, I further developed a keen interest in mobile technologies that can make the stressful college life so much easier. After I fell in love with the creation of digital content while working in a marketing position, I now scour the web to bring you the most exciting topics in the world of tech. Outside the office, I’m particularly passionate about motorsports and mountain biking.
