Torqway company

Torqway is a company raised in 2014 in Toru?, Poland to develop innovative product invented by one of the company owners. Our invention, Torqway, is a vehicle for a personal mobility, that is different than any other things you have ever seen. It's a four-wheeled device with a platform and 2 levers to ride using a strength of user's muscles. The innovation consists of a special mechanism of gears that convert the swing motion of levers powered by hands to rotational movement of wheels. Thanks to this process every user's hands movement (forward and back) is transferred to wheels rotation. We call this activity as a nordic riding, because of similar to Nordic driving hand motion. Using Torqway device is a great opportunity to practice physical exercises, keep good condition and have lots of fun and satisfaction. Torqway's first product - Torqway Sport - has been appreciated on many fairs and invention contests in Poland, USA, Taiwan, and Switzerland in categories: innovation, transportation, fitness, and wellness. These awards have convinced us that we are on a good path and determined us to further development. Currently, Torqway is focused on its new project - Torqway Hybrid vehicle. The philosophy of this product is based on our patented mechanism with gears, but in totally new design and with electric engines support, that help users in breaking most common roadblocks. Manual drive is still basic, but additionally, the user can choose also several assist modes. We strongly believe that Torqway Hybrid will be a great proposal for those, who want to keep fit, attractive and good condition, especially nowadays, when more and more societies become aging societies.
