Pannon Porto Ltd is developing an ultralight foldable electric scooter in Mosonmagyaróvár using EU funds.
8. July, 2014
Pannon Porto Ltd. has been awarded 284 million in Hungarian Forints as a nonrefundable subsidy from the government program New Széchenyi Plan. The name of the grant was ‘Support of market-oriented research and development’. The total budget of the project is 406,8 million Forints. The investment is not only improving the competitiveness of the company through the development of the new scooter prototype, but alongside keeping the current workforce it will be used to create new job opportunities.
Pannon Porto Ltd, based in Mosonmagyaróvár, has been dealing with concrete transportation using mixers, concrete pumping, gravel mining and transport, and international spedition. The professional basis of our application is the more than 10 years of activity of ANTRO Non-Profit Ltd. with the help of third-party partners in research and development of ultralight vehicles.
The demand for Moveo, the ultralight folding electric scooter has been recognized because significant change is predicted in the following years regarding the transportation in cities, more precisely the last 5-15 kilometers before reaching the destination. This was the reason why the applicant Pannon Porto Ltd. and its most important partner ANTRO Non-Profit Ltd. started working on a folding electric scooter concept in 2007, complementing its activity of car development.
The scooter’s range is 35 km, it is significantly lighter than scooters currently on the market (it weighs less than 25 kg), it can be folded easily to the size of a medium-sized suitcase, its self-supporting housing is closed, and it can be used in the future as a sole or complementary means of transport.
Using a scooter easily foldable any time provides the user advantages and mobility in transport within cities and this can extend the usability of such a vehicle.
Moveo, the scooter being developed achieves the light weight due to the structure without a frame and the application of bio and carbon composites.
The self-supporting monocoque of the scooter can ensure the required solidity by the usage of composites. The research of the applied composites’ mechanical features is considered to be a substantial progress concerning the implementation of self-supporting monocoques. Scooter prototypes, which are to be implemented with the help of the above tender serve as preparation to the mass production of Moveo.
