Japan is falling behind in the electric vehicle sector as its traditional automakers focus on hybrid and hydrogen technologies. However, startups like KG Motors Co. are emerging as forces for innovation. Founded in 2022, KG Motors is developing the Mibot, a compact one-seat EV designed for urban use. With a 7.68 kWh battery, it offers a range of 100 km and can charge in five hours. Mibot meets the current trend of short-distance driving alone, reflecting a shift needed to adapt Japan's automotive landscape.
In modern times, the majority of car use is actually short distances driven by one person. The reality is that many people use their cars alone.
If the so-called traditional Japanese automakers won't step up, then the startups will. KG Motors is pioneering a stylish single-seat EV.
