[Tier](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/free-now) Mobility recently was able to acquire leftover assets from Coup, which ceased operations at the end of 2019. In total Tier Mobility will now have access to approximately [5,000 new mopes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mustang-electric-bike) that were in use by Coup. Coup was active in Berlin, as well as Paris and Madrid. Tier Mobility will now also look to start a [scooter service](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/urban-electric-scooters) in Berlin, through the Tier app.

Lawrence Leuschner, the Tier Mobility CEO, spoke about the acquisition, We have gained valuable experience with e-scooters and can now use this effectively in the field of e-mopeds. Many customers want a slightly faster vehicle for medium distances of 4 to 10 kilometers. Now we can now offer these people a very good deal with high-quality vehicles"
