Commuting by E-Bike is expanding massively in many cities, and is being fuelled by a number of factors including tighter emissions rules, better cycling infrastructure, a desire for improved fitness, and massively improved performance, all making human/battery-assisted hybrid two-wheelers a sound choice for many.
Despite the lower running costs, the purchase price of a premium e-bike can be a barrier to entry for many. To address this, Yamaha UK is launching a corporate e-bike leasing scheme. The scheme is not only aimed at businesses looking to support staff with subsidised bike loans but also at the food delivery/courier/fleet sector.
Moreover, Yamaha sees a significant potential for bike rental firms in tourist areas, where e-bikes can offer a unique and eco-friendly way for tourists to explore.
