On New Year’s Eve I rode around Krasnodar on a rental scooter, how much money did I spend?

Hi all! Here comes 2021, happy new year everyone! Everyone celebrated differently, and after the festive table I went for a walk around the city and came across electric scooters that could be rented. So I decided to go for a ride. At the end of the article, I have attached a video of the process, look at the beauty.

There are many companies in Krasnodar that are ready to provide scooters for rent. I came across two options. The first one, which reaches a maximum of 20 km/h, and the second one is a little larger and goes faster, but costs more to rent. Using the service is simple, just find a scooter, scan the QR code, and download the application. The application will be from the service who provides the services, everything is written on the scooters. I came across: “Urent” and “Eleven”.

You register in the application using your phone number and indicate your card number. After trips, bonus points are awarded, which can be used to pay for subsequent use.

I had never ridden such scooters before, but I really liked them as entertainment. In Krasnodar, Krasnaya Street is closed on weekends and holidays, so I was able to ride there. There is no particular winter here, neither is there snow or ice. It was a pleasure to ride, it was a little cold, but tolerable, even though it was night time. Now I’m thinking about buying such a scooter in addition to the bicycle. It turns out to be very expensive to rent, I’ll give you the prices.

How much did you spend?

I rode on January 1, 2 and 3, all at night. The first two times, using the Urent service, where the tariff was 3 rubles. per minute, plus 30 rub. They charge you one time per start. On the 3rd I already used Eleven, where the tariff turned out to be 5 rubles. minute and 35 rubles to start the trip, which turns out to be very expensive. But the scooter will be better.

Total: 01/01/21 – 217 rubles, 01/02/21 – 331 rubles, 01/3/21 – 478.01 rubles. In terms of time – 244 minutes for three trips, dashed off for 1026 rubles . There are different tariffs, I took the per-minute one, even if it is not the most profitable.

But I drove around enough, tried what this thing was and started thinking about purchasing it, although I hadn’t paid attention to them before. Well, for those who don’t intend to buy, sometimes you can just go for a ride or go on business, without getting stuck in traffic jams by car or public transport. It’s not difficult to maintain balance; you don’t have to waste time on training. Two buttons: gas and brake, no complications.
