This a big why.

Electric scooters, or e-scooters, are becoming more and more popular in New Zealand as a convenient, eco-friendly, and a fun, wholesome way to get around.

Whether you're commuting to work, running errands, or exploring new places, e-scooters can offer you a lot of benefits.

No need to second guess. Take a look at the reasons why e-scooters are taking over New Zealand:

1. ⚡️ Easy to Use and Maintain

   One of the main advantages of e-scooters is that they are very easy to use and maintain. Unlike cars or bikes, e-scooters don't require a license, registration, insurance, or parking fees. You can simply hop on and off your e-scooter whenever you want, and store it in a small space when not in use. E-scooters also have a simple design and mechanism, which means they don't need much servicing or repairs. You just need to charge the battery regularly and keep the tires inflated.

2. ⚡️ Affordable and Cost-Effective

   Another reason is that they are very affordable and cost-effective. Compared to other modes of transport, e-scooters have a low upfront cost and a low running cost. You can buy a decent e-scooter for under $2,000 NZD. Mearth S and S Pro, an Australian premium brand of commuter electric scooters even go for less than $1,000 NZD. The cost of charging an e-scooter is also very low, as it only takes a few cents per kilometer. That's you saving money on fuel, public transport fares, parking tickets, and toll fees by using an e-scooter instead.

3. ⚡️ Eco-Friendly and Sustainable

   A third reason is that they are eco-friendly and sustainable. E-scooters run on electricity, which means they don't emit any harmful gases or pollutants into the air. Do you know that using an e-scooter instead of a car or a bus, you can reduce your carbon footprint and help the environment? E-scooters also use less energy and resources than other combustion vehicles, so this makes them more sustainable in the long run.

4. ⚡️ Fun and Exhilarating

   A final reason why e-scooters are taking over New Zealand is that they are fun and exciting. E-scooters can offer you a thrilling ride with speeds that can go up to 100 km/h or more. You can also choose from different types of e-scooters depending on your preferences and needs. Don't you like to ride on your e-scooter to explore new places and enjoy the scenery with ease and comfort? Sure, you would!

Now we get it. Electric scooters have taken over New Zealand for a good number of reasons -- not only are they easy to use and maintain, affordable and cost-effective, eco-friendly and sustainable, but they offer fun and excitement, including freedom and refreshing air.
