Last mile vehicles

This is the reason electric scooters are called ‘Last Mile’ vehicles. Combining a electric scooter with a train means you can get anywhere, faster.

Electric scooters can go an average of 25 kilometers per hour, which is as fast as any e-bike in Europe is allowed to go. A combination of the top-speed and the time gained from not having to rely and wait on public transport can give you back a lot of time.

For example commuting between Rotterdam and Amsterdam can normally take 1:23 hours. Which means 2:46 a day, almost 3 hours! This can be cut back to 2:12, saving you half a hour a day.
