KickScooter sharing With a successful start in the United States where KickScooter sharing projects have become the revolutionized way of transportation in urban areas, Europe is quickly following. Sharing KickScooters in cities bring a solution to congested and polluted areas and improves urban sustainability. KickScooter sharing make commuting more efficient, fun, cheaper and environmentally friendly. Following the U.S., Segway-Ninebot will be one of the main partners for sharing projects in Europe and has developed, next to the current consumer KickScooter models ES1 & ES2, a dedicated sharing KickScooter model to fully service the enterprise market.
Throughout 2018 the Ninebot by Segway ES2 has been the primary choice of KickScooter deployed by US sharing fleet operators such as Bird and Lime. Segway New Zealand offers the ES2 model to Kiwi KickScooter sharing/KickScooter hiring businesses right now, and will offer the enterprise model to commercial operators as soon as it becomes available.
