How are TWIKE vehicles and batteries recycled, and will the TWIKE 5 batteries be retrofittable?

Last updated:

TWIKE vehicles are designed for long-term use. Many components are repairable, reusable, or recyclable, helping to reduce resource consumption over the vehicle’s lifetime.

The batteries used in TWIKE vehicles are intended for long-term operation. When a battery reaches the end of its service life, it is recycled using established industrial processes that recover valuable raw materials such as cobalt, nickel, and copper.

For the TWIKE 5, it is planned—following the concept of the TWIKE 3—to allow the retrofitting of additional batteries. This modular approach supports flexibility, extended usability, and long-term sustainability.
