From the boardroom: SEATofficial Mo's move into micro-mobility. We talk to the man with the radical plan
“We saw this increasing use of kick-scooters, motorcycles and other mobility services like Uber, for example. So we said 'if we don't provide these new mobility solutions to the younger generations, they will go somewhere else'.E-scooters are illegal to ride on public roads and pavements in the UK. Is this a concern for Seat Mo?
“The law should be changed. This is something that here we can try to influence a little bit, but of course we aren't the lawmakers. I think e-scooters with proper legislation are a very good means of transport.”Seat Mo offers two e-scooters, the larger-battery 65, which has a range of 40 miles, and the 25, which has a range of 15.5 miles.
“Since we just have one chance to do it right, we're analysing in detail the customer needs of the young generations.”Seat is merging its products and services to give its customers more flexibility, said Casanovas, highlighting that time-poor customers want the most seamless service possible. Casanovas isn’t about to outline Mo’s future model plan, but it’s clear that the brand has the capacity to push new ideas, based on modelling that suggests travel is set to change dramatically over the next decade, from short-term vehicle leasing through to car-sharing schemes, the rise of electric mobility and pressure in cities to reduce emissions and congestion.
