Smile per Mile
BYTON M-BYTE YOUR PLATFORM FOR LIFE
Be Safer. Be Entertaining. Be sharing.
At Byton, our goal was to measure success in "Smiles Per Mile," not just "kWh Per Mile." We saw the time spent driving as our biggest opportunity, with a clear mission: make a one-hour commute feel like a one-minute ride.

What inspired me to BYTON?

It may not be the perfectly filmed movie but the storyline is the inspiration.
This was one of the early marketing videos, the brand opportunity "Time to be".
- A brand where USERS are valued and inspired.
- A product vision that is led by User Design Thinking process.
- Organization where designers are empowered to innovate.
- Innovation is built by the teams from the ground up and in-house.
