Covid-19 made significant behavior changes throughout the recent years but many of which are positive like the possibility of working from home more regularly (resulting in shorter and local journeys), spending more family time and supporting more local establishments, helping the community.
However, there were also negative outcomes such as isolation because of the fear of contracting the disease. Now, people felt safer in their own car “cocoon” resulting in a higher traffic rate, even above 100% compared to pre-COVID levels in many cities.
Micromobility Devices
The goal is to still provide transport for people but to shift their mindset to a more eco-friendly option, to use micromobility devices more. Micromobility devices are a range of small, lightweight vehicles without internal combustion engines and driven by the users themselves because they can only carry one person at a time. One of these convenient devices are electric scooters.
What are electric scooters?
Electric scooters, e-scooters or electric kick scooters, whichever name you’ve come across with, generally have two wheels, a platform called a deck and handlebars for maneuvering the ride. They differ from the non motorized kick scooters of the 1990s due to the addition of a battery, electronics, larger tires and an electric motor. There are even more upgrades to the modern e-scooters, some running as fast as 80 km/hr (off-road).
Today e-scooters have definitely grown popular, even being fondly used in the present days since they are one of the safer alternatives ever since the pandemic scare. It is very much a growing demand and very well part of the vehicle system.
So let’s get down to business on the types of e-scooters to choose from at Ride Hub. (Note: Prices are all in Australian Currency)
