THE SOURCES OF COMPETITIVE ADVANTAGES OF ELECTRIC SCOOTER SHARING SERVICES
In the past few years, there has been a sharp increase in the need for both conceptualizations and applied research on the current radical reformatting of urban mobility. Some of the emerging trends were unexpected and poorly predictable. And the formation of a new niche for rental services of elect...

In the past few years, there has been a sharp increase in the need for both conceptualizations and applied research on the current radical reformatting of urban mobility. Some of the emerging trends were unexpected and poorly predictable. And the formation of a new niche for rental services of electric scooters is perhaps the most vivid example. A whole new industry has emerged in the urban spaces of North America and Europe in a matter of months, demonstrating a tangible paradigm shift in the field of transport systems for reasons of both technological nature and cultural transformations. The combination of the factors and trends that led to the changes that have already taken place is in itself of considerable interest. The non-standard logic of the economic efficiency for the sector of electric scooters sharing still causes a lot of controversy. Skeptics point to the possibility of unwarranted hopes for investors who have rushed into rapidly scalable venture projects. Optimists, on the other hand, insist that the fast-growing sector of electric scooter sharing is a natural new milestone for uberazation.
