Zig Zag: 350 new sharing e-scooters in Milan, Italy 

VMoto Soco and Zig Zag have launched a new fleet of 350 sharing electric vehicles in Milan. Users with a  driver's license will be able to use them around the city by registering through the app.

This new two-wheel sharing opportunity goes alongside the Tricity fleet of 100 already on Milanese soil.  The new Zig Zag CUx scooters feature a yellow and black livery that recalls New York taxis. The vehicles  have a 70 km range, with a 1,300 watt Bosch motor and a removable 60V-32 Ah lithium battery pack.

Zig Zag Scooter Sharing founders, Emanuele Grazioli and Diego Rocca, confirm the initiative contributes  to reinforcing an increasingly green policy, aiming to "make people move freely and in complete  autonomy, providing a service in addition to public transportation."

To use the service, people around Milan with a driver's license will have to register for free at www.zigzagsharing.com or via the Android and iOS apps. Entering the PIN unlocks the seat of the booked  scooter to access a helmet and a hygienic, disposable balaclava. Simple and effective, from July 24th the  service will be usable even outside the app's area of competence.

After Milan and Rome, the company wants to extend scooter sharing services to other Italian cities  including Turin.
