Norway is undoubtedly a country where an ecological approach to life and contact with nature play a very important role. Norwegians, as well as more and more often other inhabitants of European cities, want to take care of their health, keep in good shape or simply diversify their everyday life, on the way from work. In free time ... Electric scooters are becoming more and more popular in Norway. About the advantages and some doubts related to this topic below.
A few days ago, on Monday, March 11, one of the suppliers made it possible to rent a city scooter. The offer works in the same way as in the case of city bikes or cars. A few clicks in a special mobile application and the equipment is rented for minutes or hours. The precursor in this topic on the Norwegian market was the Voi company. Thanks to her, 100 scooters in a distinctive orange color appeared in the center of Oslo.
This idea met with a very positive response from the people of Oslo. Other suppliers will surely follow in the footsteps of Voi.

Electric scooters in Oslo and voices of opposition ...
Unfortunately, not everyone likes this idea. Opponents fear the chaos that may arise due to the new means of transport in the city. Users leave the scooter not always in designated places: in the middle of sidewalks, on roadsides, at stops. A scooter left behind may cause confusion in the communication and functioning of the city. It would certainly be a good idea to draw up a special regulation, although it is not certain whether everyone will follow it.
Despite some doubts, electric scooters and using them have a lot of advantages:
- an ecological solution, safe for the environment at your fingertips,
- a great alternative to traditional types of public transport,
- sports, healthy solution,
- saving time - covering the distance faster than on foot,
- riding a scooter is the same health - while driving, we oxygenate the brain, strengthen muscles, support the metabolic system.
