AMSTERDAM, the Netherlands - Two heavyweight names from the e-bike and automotive industries have failed to successfully launch a new e-bike brand.

AUTORQ is reinforcing its position as a specialist in torque sensing technology for e-bikes.

Smart technology is reshaping the e-bike industry. It's giving users more autonomy in managing maintenance and customisation features. Panasonic, known for introducing the world to one of the first e-bikes, has recently launched its GXM series in Europe, along with a smartphone application to easily configure and adjust the bike to preference.

VALAIS, Switzerland - "We want to disrupt." That is the clear goal of the new project by ex-Stromer co-CEO Tomi Viiala. Joining forces with an elite set of partners, he is launching a new brand, Viiala, to push the current boundaries of innovation within the bicycle industry. The e-bike and speed-pedelec range hitting the market in 2028 will have a price tag to match its space-based technology and watch-industry backing. Is the bicycle industry ready for a giant leap?
