Electric scooter sharing service starts today in Naples

From today, the city of Napoli is enriched with a new sustainable mobility option thanks to the launch of the service electric scooters in sharing powered by BIT Mobility.

This initiative represents a modern alternative to traditional means of transport, combining respect for the environment and reduction of consumption with flexible and easy-to-use mobility. Users can manage the rental of scooters through a dedicated App, downloadable from the website www.bitmobility.it, which guarantees complete 24-hour operation.

The first 350 were put into service today scooters, which will be followed by others until reaching a city fleet of 700 vehicles, composed of the Segway S3 and Segway S90L models. This latest generation model offers a combination of maneuverability, comfort and advanced technology to ensure safe driving and reduce accidents and street clutter. The Segway S90L is equipped with sensors that detect sidewalks, parking lots, horizontal signs and pedestrians in real time, emitting acoustic signals and vocal alarms to prevent theft and improve visibility at night and during braking.

Users will be able to choose from various packages and discounts available through the App, which also includes information on the rules of use and circulation areas. In addition, information campaigns are planned both on social networks and in the area, also involving local schools in projects to promote safe driving.

“With the launch of the new electric scooter service, the Administration's commitment to sustainable transport continues,” comment from the Department of Mobility, “while offering solutions integrated with the city mobility network.” The scooters will be available in various strategic points of the city, including Piazza 7 Settembre, Piazza San Giovanni Bovio, Duomo Metro Station and Piazza Garibaldi.
