THE scooters electric cars are not just a trend of the moment, but are destined to play an extremely important role in the future of mobility. The words of Enrico Giovannini, Minister of Infrastructure and Sustainable Mobility, who in the frame of an event organized by Il Corriere della Sera made a series of clarifications on the new rules that will regulate the circulation of these vehicles. With him was also Salvatore Palella, CEO of Helbiz, a major player in the field of electric scooters.
“Scooters take on a relevant aspect, for this reason, in the decree approved by the Chamber, we decided to improve the safety of those who use them, without penalizing a sector that helps to move from the concept of transport to mobility which is a combination of various factors “, Giovannini specified. Words that leave no room for too many interpretations: in the future these means of transport will assume an increasingly important role in the name of sustainability. Who in this sense has already begun to take important steps, as mentioned, is Helbiz, one of the many companies that has positively welcomed the new decree that increases the safety of those who use electric scooters. The Italian-American company has decided to take a step forward independently, establishing that its rental scooters they will all be insured, while those that will be sold to individuals, by Pininfarina, will already include insurance in the price.
“In several schools in Milan and in others, on a national level, we have activated a program of civics, with the support of the Municipal Police, for the correct use of electric scooters. The training is also aimed at teachers – added the CEO of Helbiz, Salvatore Palella – We are present in 27 Italian cities with scooters, bicycles and mopeds. In the USA, we will cover 15 cities at the end of the year. We have three campuses in university areas and five licenses in Europe. Scooters have created over 3,000 jobs in Italy, we have hired about 350 people and the turnover in the sector exceeds 300 million euros. A partnership has just been signed with Itabus where customers will be able to purchase, together with the travel ticket, a voucher linked to our mobility ”.
