Sin
Biomega's first electric car
Biomega, the premium Danish brand famed for its designer and electric city bicycle, has made its first electric car. Named SIN, it has been envisaged primarily for urban transport - the idea is to offer affordable and sustainable personal mobility solutions for modern city living. SIN takes the Danish firm's principles of social innovation, progressive design thinking for urban living and applies them to the automotive world.
The car categorizes itself as a CUV - as in crossover utility vehicle. The design incorporates four engines, four doors and four independent seats with generous legroom. Stripped back to maximize internal space, SIN uses minimal components and lightweight materials - its low weight improves range and minimizes battery consumption. Biomega's two-wheel family are typically named with a three-letter abbreviation of a city that has inspired elements of the design.
