Electric micromobility — including bicycles, e-scooters and shared light vehicles — is reshaping the way people move within cities.
Today, it makes up over 90% of all sharing mobility rentals in Italy. It is expected to grow by 20% in 2025. This will lead to more than 60 million rentals each year, according to the 9th National Report on Sharing Mobility.
These services create hundreds of millions of euros each year. They provide economic and environmental benefits. They help lower CO₂ emissions and reduce urban traffic and congestion costs.
The sector is growing fast because of a common need. There is a demand for better technology solutions.
These solutions must be reliable and scalable. They should help both public and private operators. The goal is to provide more efficient, connected, and sustainable sharing services.
A new chapter for B2-Ride: integrating Segway
B2-Ride is improving its technology. They are adding the Segway Lite L60E e-scooter. They are also adding the Urban A300 e-bike to their platform.
These are two of the most famous vehicles in the world of micromobility. People recognize them for their reliability, strong build, and global use.
This integration enhances the native features of the B2-Ride platform, enabling operators to:
- natively manage Segway e-bikes and e-scooters already deployed worldwide;
- configure and monitor customized speed thresholds, adaptable by area or usage type;
- manage smart alerts and notifications for the integrated models. This includes tip-over detection, unauthorized movement, and low battery.
- enable remote control of locking, unlocking, booking and parking;
- optimize operating areas thanks to advanced zone management and dynamic usage limits.
The Segway protocol works with the OMNI IoT box. This makes it easier to connect with many existing fleets. It also speeds up the setup time for new services. For operators, this translates into immediate access to proven, standardized vehicles supported by a ready-to-use and highly customizable technological infrastructure.
Technology evolves, the platform grows
Analysts expect the global Segway market to reach over 2 billion dollars by 2034. It is a key example of innovation in electric mobility. Their research on safety, performance, and connectivity has made the L60E and A300 models popular. Operators choose them for their reliability and quality.
For B2-Ride, this technology change expands its services. It is a big step forward for the platform. It can now connect and manage fleets with different brands and vehicles. This ensures stability, integration, and compatibility with the main IoT protocols available.
Technology that connects
With this integration, B2-Ride boosts its mission as a Shared Mobility Enabler. It offers a complete and customizable platform. This platform helps operators who want to start or grow a shared micromobility service.
A step toward a future where technology and sustainability work together is here. This is thanks to the partnership between two leaders in electric mobility: B2-Ride and Segway.
