Honda working on Striemo 3-wheel micro-mobility product

Honda, through its business venture division Ignition, has established a new company that will focus on micro-mobility. The new venture is called Striemo, Inc., and the company has been developing a one-person, three-wheeled electric micro-mobility product, also named Striemo.

The Striemo scoot features an original balance assist mechanism that enables stable riding with less likelihood of falling through its entire speed range.

According to Honda, this mechanism works as a structure that makes it easier for the user to maintain balance spontaneously and was realized through precise design where the center of gravity balance is calculated based on one-tenth of a millimeter and an original balance assist mechanism developed for Striemo.

“One of the fun factors of mobility is discovery and first encounters. I developed Striemo based on my desire to enable a greater number of people to experience such fun and my challenging spirit to create a means of transportation that lets anyone go out more spontaneously just like putting on our shoes to go out. Striemo is a new mobility product developed while leveraging know-how in the area of ‘human studies,’ which I amassed through my experience in the development of motorcycles at Honda. My goal is to make Striemo one of the most commonly used mobility products in people's everyday lives around the world and create a better world where people enjoy the freedom of mobility,” said Striemo, Inc. Co-Founder and CEO Yotaro Mori.

Honda said that it is likely to go on sale in Japan by the end of 2022, and in Europe the year after.
