The Nobe GT100 (pronounced no bay)[2] is a zero emissions[3] concept vehicle with two forward wheels and a single trailing wheel, each electrically powered. Originally designed as an enclosed two-door coupe, and subsequently rendered also as a two-door convertible, the GT100 (variously called the Nobe or Nobe 100) debuted at the 2019 Geneva Auto Show as the Nobe 01.[4]
The Nobe was styled and promoted in Estonia by company founder Roman Muljar[2] in 2017,[3] with the idea production might happen in that country.[5] After original development and two unsuccessful crowd-sourcing attempts, Nobe's Estonia workshop caught fire, destroying its two prototypes and underlying documentation, all uninsured.[6] Developers turned to North America, where a non-running prototype was subsequently marketed by Nobe Cars USA, Inc.. The company at one time had worked with Sandy Munro and Munro & Associates to engineer the vehicle for production.[7]
By late 2021, the companies surrounding the concept were mired in shareholder disputes and controversy. By 2022, development had stalled and the vehicle had not neared production.
