Urban Commuting

Nowadays, it’s common to see electric scooters in Barcelona during commutes to work, school, or just a trip down the block. Free of oil and gasoline, electric scooters provide a clean and quiet option for traveling locally and don’t carry the same maintenance costs as cars or other larger vehicles. In urban environments, electric scooters (or “patinetes” as Spaniards refer to them) are not only a green way to travel but are a more efficient solution for crowded cities. If you’re looking to break into the scooter world, there are a slew of options for different needs—whether you need a quick ride to work or merely something to ride around the quarter for fresh air and enjoyment.
