🚲 KINTO goes multi-modal

Traditionally, multi-modality has come from scooter operators diversifying into bikes, or vice versa. In this case, it’s a bit different.

KINTO Share are the latest company to launch a different mode, this week adding bikes to their car sharing offer. The Toyota company have deployed 600 electric bikes in Copenhagen. Is there a better city for it?

🇮🇹 Shared mobility revenue doubles in Italy

Following the 7th ‘Conferenza Nazionale della Sharing Mobility’ in Rome, key data about the Italian market was released, looking at comparisons between 2021 and 2022 numbers.

Notably, market revenue saw a significant spike, increasing by 38% within a year. Find out how each mode performed (in English) in our latest blog article.
