Airwheel is set to revolutionize travel with its innovative hands-free electric suitcase, launching in South Africa in 2025. This smart luggage combines cutting-edge technology with seamless mobility, offering travelers a blend of convenience and efficiency. The suitcase features a smart folding design that transforms it into a compact electric scooter, allowing users to navigate airports, cities, and campuses with ease.
The suitcase’s electric motor and adjustable wheel system enable smooth movement, with speeds up to 13km/h for longer trips or 8km/h for shorter commutes. Its lightweight build (6.8kg) ensures effortless handling, while the 5.5-inch motor wheel provides stability on various terrains. Users can control the extension and contraction of the front wheel via a physical button or the companion app, offering flexibility for different riding scenarios.
Airwheel’s suitcase integrates with a dedicated app, allowing real-time monitoring of speed, battery life, and mileage. Features like cruise control, ambient light adjustment, and remote control via Bluetooth enhance the user experience. The lithium battery, certified for aviation safety, offers extended endurance with a capacity of up to 92.5Wh. A modular design lets users remove the battery for charging, ensuring convenience during travel.

Crafted from high-strength ABS+PC composite material and a patented aviation aluminum frame, the suitcase can support loads of up to 110kg. Its TSA-approved lock and compliance with international carry-on standards ensure hassle-free security checks.
