The brains behind the TWIKE 5: driving dynamics expert Dr. Axel Pauly

When developing the TWIKE 5, we pursued two maxims right from the start: We wanted to build a highly efficient means of transportation that would also offer its riders the riding comfort they are accustomed to today. It was quite a challenge to reconcile both goals. Not least in view of the fact that we had once again opted for a three-wheeler for weight reasons. The fact that we were able to win over Dr. Axel Pauly, a top-class engineer, vehicle developer and driving dynamics expert, was a decisive factor in solving this Gordian knot.

TWIKE: How safe is a ride in a TWIKE?

At first glance, riding on three wheels does not seem as stable as riding on four. However, there was one main reason why we at TWIKE decided to design a three-wheeled vehicle: significant weight reduction and, as a result, greater energy efficiency. By addressing the weak points of the three-wheeler—lower stability due to a smaller contactContinue reading “TWIKE: How safe is a ride in a TWIKE?”

Why TWIKE relies on three wheels instead of four

When the TWIKE was invented 36 years ago, it was a fully enclosed, three-wheeled recumbent bicycle with a delta frame. We still adhere to the original design today. This is because, in addition to regulatory reasons, it also offers a number of technical advantages.

TWIKE 5 – With bidirectional charging technology

Das TWIKE 5 wird mit einer bidirektionalen Ladetechnologie von Ambibox ausgestattet sein. Mit dieser ist nicht nur eine DC-Schnellladefunktion über einen sog. CCS-Anschluss möglich. Auch ein direkter AC-Ausgang in Form einer im Fahrzeug integrierten CEE- und einer Schuko- Steckdose steht zur Verfügung. Energie aus der Antriebsbatterie des TWIKE kann so zurück in das Haus des Eigentümers gespeist oder auch für sonstige Verbraucher entnommen werden.
