Over one million pounds worth of funding has been awarded to four innovative UK niche vehicle technology projects by the Niche Vehicle Network at the UK Government Pavilion during this year’s Cenex-LCV show.

SO1O (pronounced Solo) is a unique zero-emission vehicle that’s been designed to bridge the gap between bicycles and cars. The vehicle promotes active travel by providing the best year- round accessible experience for personal transport within urban environments. The SO1O Bike sets a benchmark in lightweight ingenuity, making it efficient, dynamic, and agile.
