Iconic Electric

The Original is inspired by the NOSMOKE, a revolutionary open-air vehicle design from the 1960s. This 100% electric vehicle pays homage to the past while embracing the future with its clean and sustainable power source.

Maximum freedom

The Original, with its open structure, allows you to drive and enjoy the environment around the car. Moreover, with a range of 200 km on a single charge and its integrated battery charger, you can enjoy every journey without any constraints.

Manufactured in France

The Original is designed and built in the west part of France. All of our R&D team and production are located in Deux-Sèvres. In this region we have the majority of our partners. At Kate we want to promote local partner to reduce the impact of the environnement of our vehicle.

Customize your way

With more than 6000 possibilities you can create The Original of your dreams. If you don't find the good configuration, we can also personalized it with your own color or add your logo on your vehicle.
