Neuron’s e-scooters will soon hit the streets of Dunedin, starting 10 February 2021! The 250-strong fleet will be available to ride across Dunedin Central, Dunedin North, South Dunedin and Musselburgh, providing a safe, convenient and environmentally-friendly way to travel in the city. 

Dunedin riders will benefit from Neuron’s latest N3 e-scooters which have been purpose-built for safety and renting. They will launch with a range of world-first safety features and pioneering innovations including: the world’s first app-controlled helmet lock which secures a helmet to every e-scooter in between trips; topple detection; a 000 emergency button; voice guidance to educate and warn riders on how to ride safely; and a “Follow my Ride” function. Geofencing technology will also be used to control where e-scooters can be ridden and parked, and how fast they can travel.

New riders can download our user-friendly app, from the App Store or Google Play and set it up in a matter of minutes. A solo trip will cost NZD$1 to unlock the e-scooter and then 38 cents per minute. 

Our subscription service, Neuron Passes, is also available for frequent riders in three-day (NZD$25), weekly (NZD$33), or monthly (NZD$89) options. Users can ride to their hearts’ content for up to 90 minutes per day for an affordable price, generating savings of up to 90%.

We’re really excited to see you soon in Dunedin!
