Lightyear started in 2016 as a bright and radical idea. In 2019 we unveiled the prototype design. Now, hundreds of sketches and patents later and thanks to the dedicated work of our tenacious team, Lightyear 0 is ready for production.

There's nothing wrong with taking the longer routes, especially if they're scenic.

Hello! What better chance to introduce our bright and diverse team than World Hello Day? 🌎
To celebrate the many cultures and perspectives that make our company so special, we asked some of our team to tell us, in their native tongue, what they love about working at Lightyear.

Lightyear 0’s design was inspired by the soft, curved shapes found in nature, yet it looks perfectly at home against the hard edges of an urban landscape. A marriage of nature and technology.

Lightyear 0 is built for convenience, and comfort. With a range of >1000 km between plug charges and an interior designed for a relaxed drive every time, long trips become a treat rather than a chore.

Mobility is a human instinct. Even a scientific law!
Marchetti’s Constant states that humans will spend an hour and six minutes per day on the move. And as technological advancements, like the bicycle or the car, increase our travel range, our need to travel increases with it.
