Vattenfall and CAKE join forces to develop the first fossil-free motorcycle

Vattenfall and the Swedish manufacturer of electric motorcycles CAKE have signed a letter of intent to share expertise and know-how in their respective fields of competence with the aim to develop the first fossil-free electric motorcycle.

The collaboration combines cross-scientific competences between Vattenfall and CAKE, as well as specialists from outside, on the journey towards the fossil-free motorcycle that should be ready for series production in 2025.

“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“, says Annika Ramsköld, Head of Corporate Sustainability at Vattenfall.

CAKE´s purpose is to inspire people, contributing to speeding up the journey towards zero emissions through a combination of excitement and responsibility in its consumer products.
