Q: What is Mothium’s philosophy of Minimal Mobility?
A: At Mothium, Minimal Mobility is our commitment to doing more with less. We design vehicles that are not only efficient and sustainable, but radically simple. Every part must justify its existence — and if it doesn’t, it shouldn’t be there. That’s why we say: “The best component is no component.”
By removing complexity, we reduce maintenance, increase reliability, and make urban logistics smarter, lighter, and more human.
