We are delighted to have been selected to provide e-scooters in the City of Perth as part of a two-year trial. The trial will launch with 250 of our safety-first e-scooters available from Saturday March 18 with e-scooters riders able to travel across Perth CBD and surrounding suburbs including East Perth, Crawley and Northbridge.

Neuron’s selection in the city is due to a strong track record of partnering with cities, and our leadership when it comes to safety and innovation. The City of Perth will be our third launch in Western Australia after launching Perth Metro’s first e-scooter trial in the City of Stirling in February 2022, followed by Busselton in December 2022. Neuron’s e-scooters have been purpose-built to a commercial grade, specifically for renting and are fitted with cutting edge safety-features including; an app-controlled helmet lock, voice guidance, a Follow My Ride feature, an emergency button and topple detection.

Neuron’s e-scooters help reduce car use and congestion, improve air quality, as well as boost the local economy. According to our  titled Shared Rides, Shared Wealth, revealed that two thirds of Neuron e-scooter journeys result in a purchase with a local business across Australia. 

Riders will be able to unlock and use the e-scooters through Neuron’s user-friendly app, which can be downloaded from the App Store or Google Play and set up in a matter of minutes. To learn how to ride safely, users can also visit our industry leading education platform ScootSafe Academy, an interactive, online riding school with city-specific training content that can help to educate riders.

We look forward to partnering with the City of Perth to deliver a safe, convenient and environmentally friendly service.
