MICROCAR MICROLINO: Big Soul! Tiny Footprint!

The Microlino is a Swiss-designed urban micro-car inspired by the legendary 1950s Isetta, reimagined for a sustainable future.
 
The 2026 Microlino features a unique front-opening door, up to 228 km of WLTP range, and a 90 km/h top speed. It boasts a 230L trunk and a lightweight unibody steel frame for urban agility.
 

Price Range: Approximately €17,990 to €21,990 depending on battery size.

Body Style & Dimensions:

This L7e quadricycle measures just 2519mm (L) x 1473mm (W) x 1501mm (H). Its compact frame allows for crosswise parking, requiring only a third of a standard parking space.

Platform & Performance:

Operating on a low-voltage architecture, it uses NMC/NCA Lithium-ion chemistry. Three battery options—5.5, 10.5, and 15 kWh—deliver WLTP ranges of 93, 177, and 228 km respectively. Efficiency is rated at roughly 6.1 kWh/100 km. Acceleration from 0-50 km/h takes 5 seconds, with a top speed of 90 km/h.

Technical Capabilities:

Tech is minimalist. It lacks airbags, ABS, and stability control, focusing instead on “active responsibility”. It features a small touchscreen for climate controls and a digital driver display.

Interior & Storage:

The cabin features a two-person bench seat with surprisingly high-quality materials, including vegan leather options. While there is no front trunk, the rear boot offers a generous 230 liters of space.

App Functionality: A dedicated smartphone app allows owners to check vehicle status and plan routes, while over-the-air (OTA) updates keep the digital interface current.

Pros & Cons:

    • Pros: Exceptional parking maneuverability, iconic retro styling, and low running costs.
    • Cons: Lack of standard safety features (no airbags/ABS), noisy cabin fans, and no air conditioning.

Summary:

The Microlino is a premium lifestyle choice compared to budget competitors like the Citroën Ami. While more expensive, it offers significantly better range, higher top speeds, and a more robust unibody steel construction.
