Sales start in May

I have always liked products that are a bit special. Maybe a little smarter, more stylish, or just a bit more fun to use. So when I took over Vässla, I naturally wanted to do something very special.

But I needed help. And I knew right away where from. I have followed teenage engineering for years and am really impressed by how they constantly think innovatively, and develop and design completely unique products. Everything from small synths and speakers to, well, all sorts of things. So I called them up.

"Hey, shall we build a moped together?"
There was silence on the line for half a second.

"Well, that sounds fun."
And then we were off.

teenage engineering® develops the alternative future for consumer electronics

Where does one start then? We wanted to build something unique. Not just put a logo on something that already existed. Quality, driving pleasure, new technology, sustainable for the future, and a special look. We started by developing a frame on which we could build all of this.

  • We started brainstorming a new moped that would be a bit more than an ordinary moped. A bit special, as I said. But time was tight. I want to launch a new model on the market in 2025. We went to China and checked out every frame and moped we could find. And we found a factory willing to custom-build according to our sketches.

  • And there were quite a few drawings, most of them ended up in the trash. But eventually it came together. We tested new ideas, took the moped apart, rebuilt it several times, tested new ideas again, developed our own parts and our own feel. In the end, we had our own model.

  • The production started in January but we couldn't quite keep our hands off. So we developed a bit more. There were quite a few custom solutions – just the way we like it. The final touch is done at our facility in Borås before it leaves the warehouse.

In March, we received the first delivery (except for the covers) and now the certification has just been completed. It took a little longer than we expected. On the other hand, we've been playing with it in the warehouse in the meantime. It's really fun and has a great ax if you like that. And I do.

  • The new Vässlan is a moped you don't just ride. You make it yours. You will be able to modify it into your unique moped.

  • We have prepared it for the future and will continuously release new accessories and modifications.

  • The range is +100 km with the 50Ah battery or 60 km with the 30Ah. Class 1 or 2, you choose. Motor of 2.6 kW. Keyless start. USB-C mobile charger.

We are starting the launch with a limited edition in all black – All Black. And that means everything is truly black. Even the screws.
