HOLON develops the HOLON urban, a purpose-built electric Level 4 shuttle for public transport and on-demand mobility. The BENTELER company pairs its vehicle platform with fleet operations and routing partners.
About
HOLON was created in 2022 when BENTELER renamed and refocused its EV Systems unit around fully electric autonomous movers. The company is based in Paderborn and operates as an independent BENTELER subsidiary, giving it access to automotive engineering and industrialisation capabilities while maintaining a dedicated autonomous-mobility product organisation.
HOLON urban is designed as an accessible, bidirectional shuttle built to automotive standards, with space for up to 15 passengers, a maximum speed of 60 km/h and a stated range of roughly 290 kilometres. HOLON supplies the vehicle-development layer in a broader service model: ioki contributes routing and mobility software, while BENTELER Mobility supports fleet operation, infrastructure and financing. Public-road testing and planned series production make the company more than a concept-vehicle programme, although broad commercial service remains dependent on local approvals and deployment partners.
