MOVPAK

Movpak is the world’s first backpack electric vehicle and it’s the easiest way to commute.

Research indicates that the most effective way to carry the largest number of people using the smallest urban space is through mass transportation. Although with that solution comes a new problem: the last mile problem. That is, the distance between peoples’ houses and the closest transport hub, and from the next hub to the final destination are too short to make by car and too long to make by foot.

Having that in mind we developed and patented a backpack that not only carry all you need to work/study inside it but it will also work as an electric vehicle capable of riding up to 20 mph, with a range of 9 miles per charge and with 0 carbon monoxide emission.

Different from most of the other portable electric vehicles, Movpak is able to fold and unfold it in a matter of seconds. And while it’s folded it can easily be wheeled like a suitcase. Like in the invention of the smartphone that allowed us to have something useful with something pleasant (cellphone + ipod). Now you can ride on the same product you carry your books, laptop and gadgets!

It’s perfect for those who need to cross a college campus or for those who need to catch the train. And if you need to change backpacks, don’t worry you won’t need to buy another vehicle just buy another cover with different styles and colors. 

Hugo is a Brazilian inventor who was travelling between Belgium and Netherlands, when one of those huge garages with thousands of bikes caught his attention. He asked himself: “Why do people have to leave their vehicles before they get on the train? And how do they get from the next station to work? Something is missing in this process. " That is when an idea came to him. Different from a foldable electric bike that can be big, heavy and not very useful when folded, he thought on something simple, fashionable that could be taken anywhere, whether it be a classroom or even an office without being inconvenient to carry. That is why Hugo started to develop this project, working exclusively, everyday along with his team: the Engineer Felipe Junquilho, the Creative Director Ivo Machado and the logistic manager Adam Moon. Together they created the first Backpack and Portable Electric Vehicle. A personal vehicle that can carry all you need for the day and solve the last mile problem, that is, getting you to the next station,sitting comfortable in public transportation or even allowing you move around campus while still getting to class on time.!
