Amble Launches Amble One, a Moon‑Buggy‑Style Lightweight Electric Vehicle

The Lisbon startup positions the open, street‑legal One for short trips at hotels and private estates with initial production reserved for luxury properties.

Overview

  • Amble announced the Amble One on Thursday as a doorless, street‑legal lightweight electric vehicle aimed at short‑range mobility in places where a full car feels out of place.
  • The company says the One meets European L7e weight limits by keeping curb weight under 450 kilograms and limits performance to a roughly 40 mph top speed and about 60+ miles of range.
  • Amble lists a starting price near €20,000 ($25,000) and plans hospitality deliveries beginning mid‑2027 with consumer preorders open for 2028 deliveries.
  • The founders include ex‑Audi and ex‑Apple designer Julian Hoenig plus micromobility and design veterans, and the vehicle’s visible skateboard platform and simple materials reflect that design lineage.
  • Amble reports 12 signed clients, more than 500 vehicle commitments and over €10 million in signed revenue but those commercial figures are company claims that reporters have only partially corroborated.
