The Mobilize Duo is a two-seater electric quadricycle that replaced the Renault Twizy in 2023,[8] which was unveiled at the 2022 Paris Motor Show.[9] First previewed as the Mobilize EZ-1 concept in 2021,[10] it was eventually renamed to its current name and shown at the 2021 Viva Tech event.[11] A cargo version, named the Mobilize Bento, will be available with a 1 m3 (1.3 cu yd) load area.[11]

In 2024 it was announced that the Mobilize Bento and Duo models would be available in the United Kingdom and go on sale in 2025.[12]
