Belgian startup Any aims to challenge the dominance of cars in urban mobility by designing electric two-wheelers “for real life,” emphasizing cargo capacity without compromising speed, range, or versatility. The company’s first product, the modular electric motorcycle LUV1, can store up to 120 liters, addressing the “missing link” left by car trunks. The LUV1’s modularity allows customers to customize the vehicle with various panels, a windshield, racks, and other accessories to suit different needs, from commuting and family use to outdoor activities.

Any’s LUV1, priced starting at €7,000 (approximately $8,150), targets a market between cars and higher-end electric cargo bikes. It requires only an A1 license, which is relatively easy to obtain. The startup has secured over 600 reservations in its first 100 days through a preorder campaign that includes a refundable €49 fee. Any has raised €2.75 million in venture capital and is now seeking an additional €10 million or more in a Series A funding round to ramp up production ahead of its first deliveries. The company believes that the LUV1’s extra cargo space will be its main differentiator in a growing electric two-wheeler market expected to be mostly electric by 2030. Source
