Chinese electric vehicle brands, led by giants like BYD Co., are steadily gaining ground in Europe. Their sleek, high-tech models at competitive prices have already begun winning over customers across the continent. But while much of the spotlight has been on family-sized sedans and SUVs, one lesser-known startup is setting its sights on an entirely different frontier, which is Europe’s compact micro-car segment.

The all-aluminium frame & much more

Linktour Automotive, a relatively small name compared to its established peers, has announced plans to introduce two new all-electric “Alumi” models — the L6e and the L7e, to European streets. Featuring an ‘all aluminium’ frame and battery cells integrated directly into the structure, the company is planning to debut its L-series vehicles in Italy this November, aiming to sell 20,000 units across Europe next year at prices it promises will remain “competitive.”
