KG Motors delivered the first MiBot units in December 2025, with plans for mass production starting in April 2026, targeting 300-500 units monthly. Idemitsu Kosan's collaboration with KG Motors includes converting apollostation network into electrified energy hubs to support the MiBot and other electric vehicles. The MiBot, designed for short urban commutes, reflects Japan's shift towards micro-EVs and renewable energy-powered service stations. This initiative challenges the traditional model of larger, more expensive EVs and signifies a practical adaptation to the energy transition, with potential global implications if successful.
