Why Scooters Beat Other Modes of Transportation
When it comes to commuting and getting around town, there are a lot of options. You can walk, ride a bike, skateboard, take a train or bus, or drive your car. However, we think that scooters are the best form of transportation.
Greener Than Cars
Riding a motorized scooter is much better for the environment than driving a car to work. While the average car can only travel 5 or 6 miles on $1 of gasoline, the EcoReco can go up to 500 miles on $1 worth of electricity. You don’t need any fuel. Simply plug in the scooter before you leave. You can go 10 to 20 miles on a single charge.
Faster Than Walking
Walking to work is great, since it doesn’t use any electricity and doesn’t cost any money. However, walking your commute can take a lot of time out of your day. You can only walk so fast. A scooter can move up to 20 miles per hour, so you’ll get to work in no time.
Won’t Get Sweaty
Taking a bike or skateboard to work is great, and it can help you get some exercise. The downside is that you might wind up sweaty by the time you get to the office. The EcoReco Scooter is electric, so you won’t work up a sweat just traveling to work. Plus, since you can go up to 20 miles per hour, you’ll get there just as quickly as you would on a bike.
Cost Efficient
Buying a motorized scooter can seem like a big investment up front, but it’s much cheaper than other forms of transportation. Cars are expensive and come with a host of other expenses. You have to pay for insurance, gas, routine maintenance, upkeep and more. Even public transportation, while cheaper than driving, adds up. If you pay $150 per month for an unlimited pass, that’s $1,800 a year you spend on transportation.
Portable
You can take EcoReco Scooters anywhere you go. They weigh 34 pounds and fold up to 3’ x 1’ x 6” so it can easily fit in a trunk or gym locker. You can pack it up and store it under your desk. No more looking for parking or paying for a space in a garage.
