The vertically integrated approach allows it to design and produce motors, batteries, and software in-house, enabling superior customization and long-term sustainability.
“Our vision is to bring together the latest technology with fun, thoughtful design to create small EVs that inspire people to adopt these more efficient modes,” said Chris Yu, President. “This launch is just the beginning of a broader platform we are building that we believe will catalyze adoption globally.”

Inside the TM-B Electric Bike
The flagship TM-B redefines what an e-bike can be, featuring a modular top frame adaptable to multiple body sizes and use cases—from daily commuting to recreation. Powered by the DreamRide system, TM-B delivers a software-defined pedaling experience that blends regenerative energy and motor assistance for effortless control.
Key features include a vehicle-grade battery, USB-C fast charging, an integrated security system, and the Portal digital touchscreen display offering navigation, media, and app connectivity. The system automatically unlocks or locks the bike based on rider proximity via the app.
Expanding the Micromobility Platform
Alongside the TM-B, the TM-Q is a four-wheel, pedal-assist quad for both consumer and commercial use. The consumer TM-Q offers a safe, compact option for families and individuals, while the commercial TM-Q targets delivery and logistics operations, providing a data-rich, scalable platform optimized for dense urban environments.
A multi-year collaboration with Amazon will develop a custom pedal-assist e-cargo quad for its last-mile delivery fleet. “Micromobility solutions like pedal-assist e-cargo quads allow us to quickly deliver to customers in dense, urban cities while helping reduce traffic and noise,” said Emily Barber, Director of Amazon’s Global Fleet.
