One in four new cars sold globally in 2025 were electric. That is a milestone. But it is not the whole mobility story. China shows the gap clearly: 53% of new car sales are electric. Only 14% of the cars on the road are electric. Sales move fast. Fleets move slowly. Cities feel both. So the real question is not only how quickly we electrify new vehicles. It is also what kind of vehicles we put into our cities while the transition unfolds. Bigger electric cars are still big cars. They still need space. They still sit in traffic. They still spend most of their life carrying one person. Electrification is essential. But for urban mobility, it should be the starting point, not the finish line. At XYTE mobility, this is exactly why we believe in a new category: narrow, electric, protected, and designed around one person. Because the next phase of mobility will not be won by battery size alone. It will be won by vehicles that fit the city.
