KeelWit presents a new electric trike for sustainable last-mile distribution

KeelWit presents in SIL (Logistic International Fair) held in Barcelona, the electric tricycle developed for the logistic company VIENENBICI to be used in sustainable last-mile delivery KeelWit Technology has developed for Vienenbici a range of electrically assisted tricycles to be used for Last Mile Delivery in the downtown of big cities. The development of this first model for parcel delivery companies has been done through a taskforce leaded by KeelWit and integrated by the COO of several of the main companies in this business. With the support of both UNO (Logistics and Transport Companies’ Confederation), e+e Proyectos y Eficiencia Energética andCITET (Technological Centre for Innovation applied to Logistics and Transport), the team held several meetings focused in establishing the definition of what an “ideal tricycle” should be. KeelWit later developed the first working prototype in only 3 months according to the “case study results”. Powered through LiFePO4 batteries, the tricycle is equipped with substantial improvements both in technology and user-friendliness, compared with current state-of-the-art vehicles in this market. All of the improvements are bespoke features created by KeelWit, turned into standard following the requests of the 6 companies involved in the project.

KellWit designs Airone electric bike

Searching for both design and usefulness, KeelWit has designed a new electric bicycle of sleek, elegant and fluid shapes and lines. These shapes hide a fully integrated electric system within the frame Searching for both design and usefulness, KeelWit has designed a new electric bicycle of sleek, elegant and fluid shapes and lines. These shapes hide a fully integrated electric system within the frame. The All Inclusive Recharging ON-board Equipment provides a bigger riding range as it includes all the necessary elements for the battery recharge within its frame. This allows users to have mental freedom and to avoid range anxiety linked to the uncertainty of not having battery charge enough for the desired promenade, if the charger is forgot at home. With a method of extracting battery and charger together, it offers an easy way of bringing home both to charge the battery overnight. Additionally the system allows to directly plug the bicycle to a standard socket, wherever the bike is parked. This market-first grants freedom for the users as the bike can be charged wherever and whenever power supply is available. Safety lies in the DNA of this bicycle, like in any other product designed by KeelWit. It features braking lights, blinkers, high&low beams, etc. This model also receives the first integration of its motor and the new HMI (Human-Machine-Interface) developed by KeelWit on an iPhone © base, allowing the rider to control the most relevant information on the bike operation, as well as to exploit the communication and additional applications offered by a smartphone.

If Design Contest (Munich)

KeelWit presented to IFDesign contest its revolutionary bicycle frame Tagliata, built through robot-welding of laser-cut flat aluminum sheets.   KeelWit presented to IFDesign contest its revolutionary bicycle frame Tagliata, built through robot-welding of laser-cut flat aluminum sheets. Tagliata comes from the Italian expression “tagliata su misura” (tailor made), as this manufacturing process allows easy individualization of each bicycle modifying size and final look with only software changes in cutting and welding robots. The resulting frame allows hiding the batteries of the electric bike inside of it and the bespoke final look of the bicycle through multiple combinations of materials (carbon fiber, aluminum, plastic, wood) for its side covers, which give the final touch to this innovative bike. Tagliata’s design uniqueness and extreme versatility made jury members place a special attention on this prototype and applaud its novelty. Click here if you want to watch the Tagliata...
