Commuters continuously complain about bad traffic and congestion on the road. Traffic congestion sets in when the use of cars increases causing roads to be overcrowded by vehicles on long queues for passage. Traffic congestion does not only affect commuting, it is also bad for the environment and our health when carbon dioxide spews from the tailpipes of automobile combusting fossil fuels. The situation calls for electric scooters in urban areas that could answer to traffic, parking, and road congestion.

The scenario is a common sight in urban areas. The number of cars on the road is not the only cause for traffic congestion. Here are some reasons why road congestion happens:

Too Many Cars on the Road

If the commuting public decide to use every car in the city, then there will surely be overcrowding of vehicles in the area. Vehicle usage increase if mass transit is inadequate with no other options of traveling from point A to point B.

Road Obstacles or Blockades

Accident or man-made obstacles cause traffic congestion. These blockades could be double parking, road repairs, road lanes closed for some work in progress, roads getting smaller, human interference like mass rallies of unscheduled events and other traffic stopping incidents.

Traffic Lights Malfunction

Traffic lights programming sometimes go bad causing confusion to drivers leading to traffic jams. One such abnormality is too much green time programmed in the system.

Pedestrian Crossings

Too much pedestrians trying to cross an intersection disallowing cars turn to cross with the go signals turned green in traffic lights.

Big Trucks and Cargo Vehicles

The presence of this cargo vehicles in small roads could cause traffic congestion that will delay the flow of vehicles traversing the passage.

Overdeveloped Areas

Overdeveloped areas could cause jams and congestion with its existing traffic system in a state of overcrowding already. Additional infrastructure and vehicles on the road will cause traffic problems and commute.

All these problems can be greatly reduced by the inception of electric scooters into the stream to maintain the balance of transportation for commuters. This course of action will provide an option to use the micro-mobility option and just leave their cars at home, thereby reducing the number of vehicles down the road. It will be the prerogative of the commuter to buy a reliable electric scooter for his personal use or avail of the e-scooters on rentals.

OK, they call it a comeback because the electric velomobile did not really gain ground back in the 1980s. Was it truly a failure? Well, during that time, many people thought that the Sinclair C5 was not ready to be accepted by many when car ownership was deemed most convenient for many. However, times have changed and now the three-wheeled electric velomobile is finding its place in today’s era of personal electric mobility. While it was perceived as a mobile that was ahead of its time 30 years ago, another company trying to make it in the industry of electric mobility is now finding its own set of investors to make the electric velomobile a viable option for daily transport.

Meet the Cabriovelo Project

The last 30 years have been immensely important for the developers of the newest electric velomobile that will soon be available on the mass market – the Cabriovelo.  As an improved version of the former Sinclair C-5, this novel electric velomobile is about to change all what has been said about it three decades ago. What does the new Cabriovelo Project entail?

The Mission

At a glance, the new Cabriovelo project has a straightforward mission and that is to provide a more versatible electric and pedal-capable bicycle-car. The team behind the latest electric velomobile aims to produce this personal mobility ride at a more affordable price in the effort to make it readily available to those who need another ride option. It is also a multi-purpose mobile which means it can transport people, groceries, or anything that is heavy to be carried around manually. In short, the electric velomobile can serve as a ‘second car’ without the expenses. It is also to be designed suitable for any weather condition.

The Concept

People at the Cabriovelo Project also acknowledge that any human powered (or pedaled)  vehicle continue to be a healthier means of transport, and this is why the electric velomobile still has the option for manual driving. Furthermore, such option also enables riders to have a fun commute using this electric velomobile. Moreover, it also offers a cheaper way to own a second mobile and it does not contribute to the existing pollution. With all these goals in  mind, the people behind the project are now hoping to find more investors so as to be able to mass produce the vehicle and make it a truly affordable electric vehicle option.

The main concept of the ride is to make convertible and applicable to any type of weather or season – from the coldest winter to the hottest summer. It is likewise equipped with easy access feature, electric resistance, and regress capabilities. This electric velomobile is also built to have sufficient space for cargo and to  allow comfortable seating for passengers. The large trunk also makes it easy to load anything. The versatility of this electric velomobile makes it an excellent option to be used to transport children as a child seat can also be installed in it. The practical aspect of this mobile makes it a highly versatile option for overall transport means.

The Features of this Electric Velomobile

At  first glance, the most noticeable differences between the two electric velomobiles are the roof that the Cabriovelo has. This makes it a viable transport option eve during rainfall or snowfall. As it is convertible, it makes it easy to be used under any weather condition. Yes, it is weather-proof and there is no need to use different transport mode just to keep you dry or warm.  Young passengers also get protected from the rain, snow, extreme heat of the sun while riding this electric velomoble. Just like a regular car, it also comes with a windshield to boost visibility during the time of extreme weather condition.  The interior is also designed to be well-ventilated at all times.

One of the major differences between the former Sinclair C-5 and the Cabriovelo in the presence of the Lithium Ion. In the past, lead-acid batteries were used. The change in the battery system enables the users to enjoy longer and faster rides without  hurting the battery life and quality. Recharging is also made more convenient as it only takes a few hours to completely replenish the energy used.

In the past, the C5 was only able to go for 30 km to its maximum range. The pedelec mode of this electric velomobile can go as far as 100 km with the help of power provided by its 400Wh battery system. However, another option to be offered by the team is to make an electric velomobile that can be powered by a 250W motor. This is to ensure that this electric velomobile can be used in Europe legally without having to obtain any license.

A Quick History of Cabriovelo

Velomobiles are typically recumbent tricycles that are built with an aerodynamic fairing closure. The roof and the side enclosures can be folded when deemed unnecessary for use.  The original Cabriovelo was developed by Christian Wagner, a German inventor. He was assisted by Juergen Mayerle, his colleague, in completing the design and styling. During that time, the project was put to a halt and it did not go a step further than the prototype production. That all changed when an Italian mechanical engineer by the name of David De Regibus continued on the project. His goal is to commercially produce this electric velomobile in Italy.

The form has in changed in terms of the overall vision. The current electric velomobile or the Cabriovelo weighs only about 45 kilograms. It is also possible to seek for a lighter version with the use of carbon fiber as the main material for the fairing. This electric velomobile also comes with a full lighting system that includes indicators, on top of its stable side enclosures or panels and the roof. At the rear, an optional cargo compartment can also be added which can accommodate as much as 200 liters of weight and space requirement.

Other additional features include an electric wiper, a T-bar steering, loop wheels, and  a joystick. What makes this electric velomobile interesting is that users can also request certain upgrades in the gearing to cater to their own needs. Such flexibility is a big plus since users have different uses in getting a velomobile. One of the options that you can request in your own electric velomobile is the additional 250-watt hub motor installed in the front wheel. The additional motor offers bigger power that most three-wheel vehicles have. When in full throttle mode, this electric velomobile can go as far as 100 kilometers.

The Launch of a Crowdfunding

A crowdfunding campaign has been launched by the team at Velobenaco in order to finance the mass production which could be an essential key in making the latest electric velomobile  affordable for the mass market. The potential retail price is at around $4300 and the pledges will be used to meet the financial pricing goals. As for the shipping, the team targets May of 2017. It was also recently revealed tat another top version of this electric velomobile is also being produced exclusively for UK clients. This would bear the name WeatherVelo.

With the idea of considering weather-proofing into the design, this electric velometer can very well be an excellent option for personal mobility, just like today’s self-balancing scooters, e-bikes, or electric scooters. The entire concept is also an excellent alternative to electric cargo bikes as well as it as sufficient space for any type of load. Sinclair C5 may have had an unsuccessful run in the past. However, the latest electric velomobile or Cabriovelo is expected to get off the ground given the demand and need for personal mobility. The design, as well as the purpose, can certainly make this electronic velomobile one of the hottest electric vehicles to watch out for.

Safety is not the only concern though. E-scooters have gone under increasing observation for their environmental impact. Although some models are emission-free at the point of use, the process of manufacturing, managing and moving them results in greenhouse gas emissions, which then increases if they have a short lifespan. Most e-scooters need to be charged, collected, and redistributed regularly, most of the time using fossil-fuelled vehicles. The question is, are electric scooters good for the environment? 

Producing and transporting Electric Scooters increases Greenhouse Gas Emissions 

A study in 2019  by researchers at North Carolina State University, taking into consideration the emissions produced by moving and making e-scooters, suggested that they typically produce more emissions per passenger mile than a regular bus with high ridership, an e-bike, an electric moped or a regular bicycle. These findings are followed up by research from the Lufthansa Innovation Hub ranking estimated carbon emissions of different transport types, which shows average emissions of dockless e-scooters are much higher than those of e-bikes, buses, trains, electric and hybrid cars and petrol-powered scooters.

These emissions can be decreased by decreasing the number of trips by operational vehicles to ferry scooters around cities. Currently, shared e-scooters are meant to last from one to two years, but because of both accidental and damaging e-scooters on purpose, many last much less time than that. Let us look at Louisville, Kentucky, Quartz estimated the lifespan of a Bird e-scooter was around 29 days. Many believe the dockless set-up is the one to blame. Dockless bike-share approaches were heavily criticized when “mass graveyards” of redundant bikes appeared. Could e-scooters be heading the same way?

Electric Scooter Sustainability 

“Those companies in the bike industry took the approach of growth at all costs, but that is not what we do,” says the vice president at Bird, Patrick Studener. “In every city we start with 100 or 200 scooters, then we will scale up into the demand that we see. Day to day, we scale up and down with demand.”

E-scooters are advertised as a green alternative to short car trips, but the issue is that they replace trips by bike, public transport, or foot instead. Data collected from French cities shows that 44% of local e-scooter users could have walked had the scooters not been available and 30% could have used public transport. Only 4% could have used a car.

But travel habits differ across the world. In Wellington, New Zealand, 21% of e-scooter trips could have otherwise been made by car, with 39% of people driving a car less as a result of the e-scooter scheme. In Chicago, 43% of users could have travelled by car if the scooters were not available (30% could have walked). In Portland, Oregon, 36% of local users could have travelled by car instead, even though an even bigger percentage (45%) could have walked or used a bicycle, both lower-emission transport modes. However, 39% stated they drove less since the beginning to use e-scooters, suggesting positive behavior change.

Seemingly, shared e-scooter companies are giving attention to sustainability concerns, with some introducing the use of renewable energy in operations, electric operation vehicles, swappable batteries that reduce the need to move scooters away to charge, and extended scooter lifespans with better design and repairs.

Lifespan of Electric Scooters: Electric Scooters Good for the Environment

Bird stated their latest e-scooter release lasts for up to two years, reducing environmental impact. By its own admission, Bird’s first scooters had lasted around three or four months. Lime promised to change its operation vehicles to 100% electric by the end of the year 2030, and signed a commitment with 75 companies worldwide to go for electric vehicle rollout. ‘“But we expect to get there much quicker,” says Andrew Savage, Lime’s head of sustainability. In Paris, the company has already switched its entire vehicle fleet to electric, as well as using swappable batteries to determine carbon savings.

Voi says its service is fully carbon-neutral, attained by including longer-lasting scooter design, swappable batteries, and electrification of their fleets. Voi implemented these measures in Paris. They were found to reduce emissions by 71%, based on a report from EY. Tier is currently working to move all its warehouses to run on electricity by 2021, as well as replace all diesel vans and have e-scooters using swappable batteries by the end of 2020. Tier’s operations in Sweden, Austria, France, and Switzerland already are run entirely on electric vehicles.

Getting used to Electric Scooters

This apparent commitment to sustainability appeals to governments in the coronavirus recovery as they aim to support transport needs that adhere to social distancing while keeping away from increases in polluting car use.

Although most shared e-scooters were taken out of service during lockdowns, they are slowly returning to cities, with enhanced cleaning measures. Meanwhile, retailers have reported sales of private e-scooters growing in places including Ireland, UK, and Finland. Things are set to change extensively in the UK, though. Shared e-scooter trials were decided for 2021 in four select areas, but in response to the new restricted capacity of public transport, were offered nationally and brought forward this summer. This answers the question, are electric scooters good for the environment?

In 2018, the introduction of dockless electric riding scooters easily infatuated the public with its portability and eco-friendly features. It paved the way for a newer alternative for transportation aimed at reducing traffic congestion. By 2020, expect an increase of emerging innovations that will revolutionize the micro mobility industry. 

After its short-lived popularity, the micro mobility industry entered a phase of survival as issues regarding the safety of riders and pedestrians became a hot topic for debate. Questions focusing on whether the benefits outweigh the risks contributed to the current standstill of the micro mobility industry.

Companies are always finding ways to maintain a sustainable and profitable business. To survive in the highly competitive world of business, the micro mobility industry is in constant search of newer advancements that will revamp electric riding scooters and bring back its popularity. As the year continues, expect 2020 to be full of shakeouts as new businesses continue to emerge. Here are four predictions for the year ahead in dockless electric scooters:

Businesses will be Filtered

Mobilizing motorized two-wheeled alternatives into city streets require investing a huge sum of money. Since 2018, investment in electric bikes and e-scooters exceeded $6 billion. Bird, a reliable electric scooter rental service, only raked in about $15 million, as opposed to an expenditure of nearly $100 million. On the other hand, its rival company, Lime reported losses amounting up to $300 million.

With no profitable margin, companies shed out several employees to compensate for their losses. Over the course of 2019, Bird laid off approximately 60 employees from its establishment. Lyft had to force its shut down of their scooter operations in six U.S. cities and snipped off 20 employees. Lime was no exception as 100 employees lost their jobs with the termination of scooter services in 12 cities.

For a chance to grow market shares, a merger between two companies is inevitable. Such that in June 2020, Bird’s acquisition of Scoot is seen as a strategic decision for the potential growth of the business. If manufacturers continue to make electric scooters with no definite promise of better features than their previous versions, several businesses will face rejection.

City Regulations: A Win or Lose Situation

In 2018, electric riding scooters instantly became a craze as thousands of people swept stores in rush to acquire the newly introduced gadget. Several companies like Lime, Skip, Spin, Lyft, and Uber jumped on the bandwagon and enabled rentable electric scooters for the public. They were in hopes that these battery-boosted scooters will replace car trips and be more of convenience to city-dwellers.

As with every newly launched product, electric scooters also faced public backlash. With no allotted parking lots, electric scooters were dumped into sidewalks and pavements blocking pedestrians and wheelchair users. Riders who had no interest in adhering to safety rules and regulations wore neither helmets nor protective gears.  

Even when just traveling around your local vicinity, it is still important to gear up safely. Recently, several countries banned the use of motorized scooters while some promulgated rules and regulations regarding its use.

Mixed opinions surrounded electric scooters as residents were either infatuation or infuriated mode with the new technological innovation. Electric scooters emerged as sidewalk bullies on cluttered and blocked pavements. This meant that 2019 was the year of city regulations, permitting schemes, and outright prohibitions. Local authorities utilized various strategies to regulate the use of electric scooters and at the same time, ensure safety to both riders and pedestrians. 

In the U.S., for example, electric scooters are allowed on roads so long as they do not exceed the 25-mph speed limit. Also, a scooter will not require a registration or license if it has a top speed of less than 20mph and motor power below 750W. But in some European Countries, e-scooters are currently illegal for use on public roads.

Newer innovations will appear

Electric scooters were at its peak in the year 2018. They were an affordable solution for traffic reduction and ease of access in busy streets. Unfortunately, it became an overnight fad as more controversies surrounded the newly released product. While they offer a solution for traffic reduction, a range of questions emerged about their safety and self-sufficiency.

The integration of technological advances enabled manufacturers to redesign zero-emission motors for electric scooters. They made electric scooters available in varying sizes designed to fit the owner. There are available lightweight scooters with foldability and flexibility features that get the scooter to a very transportable and storable size. 

Technological advancements drastically changed the transportation industry. Necessary modifications are done every day to better fit the needs of the consumers. Better features incorporated to augment functionality for its riders emerged. New transportation technologies are emerging to meet these challenges with the deployment of more robust electric mopeds, heavy-duty cargo bikes, and mini-cars. If this continues on, the humble little scooter may soon be forgotten.

Continuous Disputes Over Data-Sharing 

A company will always strive to be better than its competitors. The owner will employ various strategic plans to make his business more profitable. Various disputes came into light such as privacy issues regarding data sharing. In some cities, Local authorities required companies like Jump and Uber to provide real-time data on all trips made within the city. 

The companies refused to comply with the data-sharing rule implying that it becomes a form of government surveillance resulting in the breach of information gathered from their customers. Arguments continue to persist even among scooter companies and mapping apps and decisions have made a huge impact on shared-data between micromobility operators and cities.
