Our take
Two-wheel electronic vehicles have gone through an explosion recently, with hundreds of different varieties in each category available. While the benefits of electronic light vehicles are obvious - convenience, low running costs, environmentally friendly - it can be difficult for people to find the right one for them.
Ridepanda, a company of self-described e-ride evangelists, was founded to be a one-stop shop to help anyone find and purchase their ideal ride. Launching as the first online marketplace for micro-mobility, it not only curated a wide range of vehicles but also supplied a range of support services such as repair assistance and insurance.
After discovering the D2C market was not an easy one, Ridepanda pivoted to serve enterprises who want to offer their employees e-bike benefits. This began with a partnership with Amazon, and has since seen the company secure the likes of Google, Intuit and Expedia as customers. The company hopes to build on this success with further expansion plans as the demand for electric light vehicles continues to grow.
