Lime electric scooters are set to revolutionize transportation in Cape Town, South Africa, with the company announcing its first micromobility deployment on the African continent in early 2020.
According to Wayne Ting, Global Head of Operations and Strategy at Lime, Cape Town is at the forefront of technology and innovation in Africa, and Lime is excited to be a part of this story.
With the addition of Cape Town to its global ridership community, Lime will now offer micromobility services on six continents worldwide.
As part of its commitment to sustainability and equitable access to transportation, Lime has also reaffirmed its position as the global leader in micromobility by announcing two high-profile launches in the United Arab Emirates and South Africa.
Additionally, Lime has launched its scooters in Abu Dhabi in the United Arab Emirates, with an initial fleet of several hundred scooters available at strategic locations along the capital city's 8 km-long Corniche.
