Problem
Urban commuters often face high costs, limited parking, and environmental concerns associated with car ownership or reliance on crowded public transport. Existing micromobility options can lack durability, safety features, or integration with digital services, reducing their appeal for daily use. Companies seeking to lower employee commuting emissions struggle to find scalable, low-maintenance vehicle solutions.
Solution
unu provides electric scooters that combine a compact, lightweight frame with a two‑arm swing suspension for rider comfort. The product line includes an entry‑level model focused on price‑performance and a premium version equipped with a 4 kW Bosch motor, LCD display, and a smart keycard for keyless access. An accompanying mobile app enables remote lock/unlock, battery monitoring, and firmware updates. unu offers both direct purchase and flexible leasing options for individuals and corporate fleets, allowing organizations to integrate low‑emission commuting into employee benefit programs. All scooters are delivered to the customer’s door and can be serviced through a network of authorized partners across multiple European markets.
