Vattenfall and CAKE speed towards ‘first’ fossil-free electric motorcycle

Vattenfall has teamed up with CAKE, a Swedish manufacturer of electric motorcycles, to develop what they claim would be the first fossil-free motorcycle.

They have signed a letter of intent to share their expertise and know-how in their respective fields as well as work with external specialists for the development of the fossil-free electric motorcycle ready for series production in 2025.

The project supports Vattenfall's goal to enable fossil-free living within one generation, with the purpose to power climate smarter living for all customers.

Annika Ramsköld, Head of Corporate Sustainability at Vattenfall said: “This collaboration is an excellent example of how we can contribute with fossil-free know-how and supply chain expertise in a specific product that drives towards zero emissions.”

CAKE aims to inspire consumers, contributing to speeding up the journey towards zero emissions “through a combination of excitement and responsibility” in its consumer products.

Stefan Ytterborn, CEO and Founder of CAKE added: “This truly empowers our ability to further inspire towards clean transportation, together with the amazing force of Vattenfall, their initiatives, know-how and clear targets.”
