GOVECS expands to the USA with electric delivery scooter GOVECS FLEX DELIVERY
Munich, 23rd February 2022 – The GOVECS FLEX-series is the newest scooter model from Europe’s leading e-scooter manufacturer GOVECS. For 13 years the Munich-based company has produced e-scooters especially for the heavy usage in sharing and delivery businesses. One of these models is the brand new GOVECS FLEX DELIVERY. It offers many advantages for delivery business ensuring fast and reliable deliveries to customers. Thanks to the German-built drive train GO CORE, a lot of technical adjustments can be adapted to individual customer’s needs. As a result, delivery customers drive more energy-efficiently, have a greater range and can determine the discharge mode of the batteries themselves. The high performance of the 2.000-Watt motor ensures a range of up to 110 kilometers. To guarantee an optimal planning of resources, the scooter can run with one or two batteries.
● Reliable electric scooter due to robust construction and efficient drive
● On demand delivery service uses the delivery-version of the GOVECS FLEX-series in the USA
● Service partner Motivate operates US-wide and maintains all GOVECS-fleets
With the isolated transport box with a capacity of 100 liters, 165 kg (inc. driver) can be loaded in total. The scooter is very robust due to a second, external steel frame and additional bumpers on the side. It drives keyless and comes with two 9.4 kg lightweight batteries, which can be switched in less than ten seconds thanks to a cable-free self-release system. The break-proof GO ELAST-plastic has been developed in-house and withstands all shocks. Furthermore, all plastic parts are injection colored and not lacquered, making them more sustainable against scratches. The special components, the outstanding quality and the smart design make the scooter not only low-maintenance, but also extremely service-friendly. In all, the aim of the construction is a long life, which makes the GOVECS FLEX DELIVERY a particularly sustainable delivery vehicle. Furthermore, GOVECS offsets all CO2-emissions which are produced during production and logistics by investing in climate protection projects: These projects support the expansion of renewable energy-supplies in developing countries. The delivery fleet is thus climate-neutral.
Successful launch in the USA with a strong service partner
A huge on demand delivery service is already using the GOVECS FLEX DELIVERY for its European business and thus decided to expand to the USA with the model in 2021. After the successful homologation for the US market, the first major cities are scheduled for launch in the first quarter of 2022. Especially for B2B customers, a great service is particularly important. To offer reliable service in every state of the USA , GOVECS acquired a strong service partner with lots of experience in maintaining light electric fleets: Motivate supports the GOVECS customers all over the USA by delivering spare parts and repairing defects to ensure the lowest possible breakdown-time of the scooters. The GOVECS-CEO Thomas Grübel is looking forward to a bright future: “We are pleased to have Motivate on board as a service partner who can operate US-wide. This will enable us to offer delivery customers and other customers not only reliable vehicles, but also equally reliable service in the future.”
