It sounds great on paper; Swedish electric motorcycle maker Cake is partnering with PaperShell to make an electric motorcycle that replaces as many plastic components as it can with paper. We’re not talking about flimsy paper bags here, PaperShell’s material is more akin to an artificial wood that’s strong, weather resistant, and above all, more environmentally friendly.
Stefan Ytterborn, founder and CEO of Cake, said in the press release that they’re trying to find a material that can “minimize or even eradicate the use of conventional plastics in our motorcycles.”
