PALO ALTO, Calif. - ALSO, the Palo Alto, CA-based, vertically integrated electric micromobility company, has unveiled its initial lineup of electric vehicles. The debut includes its TM-B bikes, two new four-wheel consumer and commercial quads, and a next-generation connected helmet. To best support its customers, ALSO is launching with a powerful network of partners including Rivian and Chase Slate.
Chris Yu, President of ALSO, said, "Our vision is to bring together the latest technology with fun, thoughtful design to create small EVs that inspire people to adopt these more efficient modes. This launch has been years in the making and it is just the beginning of a broader platform we are building that we believe will catalyze adoption globally."
ALSO's TM-B, an electric bike, delivers a one-touch, changeable, modular top frame that offers riders a single platform that can adapt to multiple body sizes and applications — from utility and commuting to trail and recreation. At the heart of the TM-B is DreamRide, ALSO's in-house drive system that brings software-defined pedaling to life. Instead of a direct mechanical connection, DreamRide blends energy regeneration with intuitive motor control to tune every ride to the individual rider's preference.
Rivian Founder and CEO RJ Scaringe, said, "ALSO was created to develop technology and products that challenge existing expectations for what is possible in form factors smaller than a car or truck – I couldn't be more excited about the potential for ALSO to help drive excitement for new modes of transportation. We have built a ground-up technology platform that enables us to deliver rich, personalized experiences that get better over time, through the power of software."
Features of the TM-B include:
- Vehicle-grade battery technology with state-of-the-art energy density, safety, and USB-C fast charging up to 240 watts.
- Portal digital touchscreen display with navigation, media, calls, and app integration, activated automatically when the rider approaches.
- Integrated security system that locks the battery, wheels, and frame automatically as the rider walks away, with real-time tamper alerts via the ALSO app.
- Configurable drive mode: The TM-B offers a completely software-defined riding experience that is extremely intuitive and easy to use.
Alongside the TM-B, ALSO is debuting two new TM-Q pedal-assist electric quads that leverage the same technology as the TM-B in a four-wheel form factor. These vehicles will be pedal-assisted and designed for bike lanes, while being able to carry significant loads.
ALSO is unveiling a commercial TM-Q that will launch in 2026 and demonstrates the power and agility of a scalable, data-rich platform tailored to logistics, delivery, and fleet electrification.
Alongside the commercial TM-Q, ALSO is unveiling the consumer TM-Q, designed for families and individuals seeking a safe, compact alternative to cars, with the versatility to handle everyday errands and weekend adventures.
ALSO and Amazon are collaborating on a customized pedal-assist e-cargo quad, with the shared aim to expand Amazon's micromobility fleet with thousands of quads across Europe and the U.S.
Emily Barber, Director of Amazon's Global Fleet, said, "Amazon already operates more than 70 micromobility hubs in cities across the U.S. and Europe. Micromobility solutions like pedal-assist e-cargo quads allow us to quickly deliver to customers in dense, urban cities, while helping reduce traffic and noise. Similar to our Rivian EDV partnership, working with ALSO provides an opportunity to continue to innovate in this space, building on our delivery logistics experience, paired with their advanced technology, safety, and performance features."
ALSO's Alpha Wave Helmet incorporates Release Layer System (RLS), a technology that offers a step-change in rotational impact protection. The helmet is also equipped with the HighBar System to provide a more secure, one-handed fit; integrated lights to help riders see and be seen; and an integrated audio system with four wind-shielded speakers and two noise-canceling microphones, enabling riders to listen to music or podcasts, take calls, and receive turn-by-turn navigation, all controlled from the TM-B's Portal and hand-control interface.
ALSO is partnering with Rivian to feature its vehicles in a number of physical locations. Later this year, customers will be able to purchase ALSO vehicles through Rivian online and retail stores across the U.S.
Preorders and reservations for ALSO's TM-B are available today at RideAlso.com, with deliveries expected to begin in spring 2026.
