Emerging ecosystem validates our approach
Open hardware for cars P2p rental service

The competition would exist if a vehicle like the Toyota i-road would be developed by an open hardware community like Local Motors and exploited by an user community like Getaround.
Personal mobility
i-Road validates the personal mobility market potential and the trike architecture…
..but they are stuck with centralized, capital intensive, supply side centric development and manufacturing systems.
Local Motors validates the open hardware model in vehicle development…
…but they are stuck with ICE vehicles development, and their organization is a fake meritocracy.
Getaround validates the p2p rental model…
…but they are stuck with conventional cars while this model can only work better with vehicles specially designed for that purpose.

Mobotiq Competitive Advantage
“P2P rental” by design
Lowest usage cost in the market
Provides business platform
Developed in open hardware: cheaper, better, faster
Validated by Darwinian development
Organized as a networked meritocracy
Revolutionary p2p digital infrastructure providing collaboration tools
Innovative, suspensions, steering, security and battery charging solutions (patents pending)
Longevity thanks to modularity and upgradeability11
Financials
We already obtained a $1M EU grant and we built an R&D vehicle (drive-by-wire, wheel-motors, driverless) and a proof of concept prototype.
We are seeking for $500k venture capital, over an 18 month period, to build a completely functional, street legal prototype.
