Our trailblazing design encapsulates robust mobility within the dimensions of an A4 sheet of paper, marking a monumental leap in e-scooter innovation. This extraordinary compactness and featherlight build redefine not just our standing in the industry, but also your everyday travel. It unfolds new realms of convenience, particularly for urban commuters weaving through bustling thoroughfares and navigating packed public transit, offering an unmatched blend of agility and ease.

Our aim is to make the final product around 10 pounds.

Central to the Arma experience is its innovative, dual-mode functionality, so unique that we’ve patented its design to safeguard this ingenuity. In just a few simple steps, users can transform Arma from a compact, easy-to-carry form into a fully operational e-scooter, poised for your next adventure. This swift metamorphosis is ideal for professionals always in motion, streamlining the transition between different transport modes and making your daily commute smooth and stress-free.

Feedback From Our Community

Meet The Brain Behind Arma

“Moving smart is living smart. Your journey should be free from the binds of boredom or unproductivity, ensuring every moment is spent meaningfully.”

”Fueled by an innate passion for mobility and innovation, my vision has always been to craft vehicles that are unparalleled and groundbreaking. This fervor for mobility is a legacy passed down in my family, a flame that was kindled during my earliest years. Since my days in elementary school, I’ve been immersed in the world of vehicles, importing and purchasing them, a fascination that blossomed into a profound love for cars, mirroring my brother’s journey as a mechanic.

This zeal propelled me towards an automotive-focused high school and fueled my aspiration to engineer the world’s fastest electric motorcycle. As a native of Japan, a nation esteemed for its automotive prowess, my ambition is not just to innovate but to showcase futuristic Japanese vehicles on a global stage.

However, my perception of mobility transcends mere movement from point A to point B. It’s about the entirety of the experience. While traditional perspectives view mobility as a substitute for walking, I envision it as a canvas to transform mundane commutes into exhilarating adventures. My ambition is to revolutionize not only our means of travel but also to enrich the vistas of our journeys. My paramount aspiration is to sculpt novel experiences in people’s lives through the vehicles I bring to life.”
