Healthier, quicker, cheaper...
E-bikes are proving to be a healthier, quicker, cheaper, and lower carbon transport option that appeal to a broad range of people in New Zealand. Employer e-bike purchase support schemes are supporting uptake.
Results from organisations that have already rolled them out suggest that once employees own their own ebike, it is revolutionising how they get around.
Here are the views of some of those buying e-bikes through these schemes:
“I haven’t used my car since (buying the e-bike).”
“It’s so great, definitely puts paid to the headwind!”
“I can’t thank ‘my employer’ enough for this initiative.”
“A definite recommend.”
“It’s now my only mode of transport to and from work.”
In addition, the cost and carbon savings are impressive.
