We are happy to announce D'Ieteren as our new distributor for the Belgian market. The over 200 year old family company, has been diversifying for some time, with the aim of becoming a major player in the alternative mobility sector and the Microlino fits perfectly into that picture. After closely monitoring these trends and leveraging the findings of a massive mobility study it had carried out among its fleet operator and individual users, D’Ieteren has made a name for itself in alternative mobility, with multimodality apps, self-driving shuttles and charging solutions for electric cars.

D'Ieteren sees in Microlino an opportunity to move into a new urban mobility segment by plugging the gap between cars and two-wheeled vehicles. Demand for four-wheeled micro transport will unfold in concert with the development of alternative means of mobility, as is the case in a growing number of cities.

CEO of D’Ieteren, Denis Gorteman explains: “With Microlino, D’Ieteren continues to invest in fluid and sustainable mobility solutions that complement conventional cars while clearly underlining the entrepreneurial spirit that has driven the company right from the start. We are also continuing to work towards achieving our ambitious targets for reducing CO2 emissions in the mobility solutions we offer.”

"We are really happy about the cooperation with D'Ieteren. Especially since it is also a family business with a lot of tradition, we are sure to have found the right partner in Belgium", says Microlino Co-Founder Merlin Ouboter.

The first Microlino’s will be delivered to Belgian customers in the first half of 2023. The car will make its official Belgian debut at the Brussels Motor Show (Hall 11), alongside the other brands imported by D'Ieteren. Customers who don't want to wait until then can reserve their Microlino online starting late this year.
