- As part of their joint "Recycling for Good" sustainability campaign, Gogoro ( NASDAQ: GGR ) has announced a partnership with MUJI, a Tokyo-based consumer goods company, and Japanese designer Naoto Fukasawa.
- The collaboration aims to enable the public to recycle polypropylene plastic waste for use in the new Gogoro MUJI Smartscooters.
- At a press conference in Taipei, the newly designed Gogoro VIVA ME and Gogoro VIVA MIX ME, as well as a variety of products and accessories, were unveiled.

- Following this success, Gogoro collaborated with MUJI to create the new Smartscooter designs and accessories. The collaboration aims to promote sustainable lifestyles and reduce urban pollution by encouraging the public to recycle plastics at Gogoro and MUJI stores.
