Scooter-Sharing Programs

Gogoro Scooters Will Be Available for Rent in Berlin Through an App

— August 3, 2016 — Autos
Especially in European cities where the streets tend to be narrower, scooters are a common method of transportation, which is why Gogoro scooters are looking to expand to Berlin. But rather than simply opening up sales in the German city, the Gogoro scooters will be released through a rental-based vehicle-sharing system similar to companies like Car2Go and Zipcar.

All that Gogoro's scooter-sharing program requires for Berliners to participate is for users to be over 21 and have a valid driver's license. After that, potential scooter-riders just download the app, find the nearest scooter on an interactive map and select it. The scooters come with helmets in the seat compartment (which unlocks automatically through the app,) letting users ride away as soon as they get to their Gogoro scooter.
Trend Themes
1. Sustainable Transportation - The rise of scooter-sharing programs like Gogoro in European cities presents an opportunity for companies to innovate in sustainable transportation solutions.
2. Rental-based Vehicle Sharing - The success of Gogoro's scooter-sharing program in Berlin highlights the potential for rental-based vehicle sharing systems to disrupt traditional ownership models in the transportation industry.
3. Mobile App Integration - The use of mobile apps to locate, unlock, and rent Gogoro scooters in Berlin demonstrates the potential for mobile app integration to redefine user convenience in the transportation sector.
Industry Implications
1. Electric Scooters - The scooter-sharing trend driven by companies like Gogoro presents disruptive innovation opportunities for the electric scooter industry as the demand for eco-friendly transportation grows.
2. Shared Mobility - The rise of rental-based vehicle-sharing programs, exemplified by Gogoro in Berlin, opens up opportunities for companies in the shared mobility industry to provide convenient and sustainable transportation options.
3. Mobile App Development - The integration of mobile apps into scooter-sharing programs like Gogoro's in Berlin creates avenues for innovation in the mobile app development industry, particularly in the transportation sector.
