TIER Mobility expands its offering by selling refurbished e-scooters from its own fleet (TIER Mobility alkaa myydä käytettyjä sähköpotkulautoja Saksassa – hinta 699 euroa)

• With myTIER, TIER Mobility is offering refurbished e-scooters from the company’s fleet to private customers in Germany
• The concept has been worked out in the context of introducing scooters with swappable batteries, which will replace the existing fleet
• myTIER is the most sustainable concept for the further usage of scooters that have only been in use for four months
• People in rural areas can experience the advantages of using a TIER Scooter as well, which has so far only been possible in bigger cities
• For 699 Euro customers can purchase a refurbished TIER-Scooter including a one year warranty, insurance, and a helmet.   

Corresponding to the upcoming introduction of the new TIER scooter with swappable batteries in Germany, the existing model will be gradually removed from the active fleet. For further use, the scooters will be refurbished and sold to private customers. People in rural areas get the possibility to benefit from the advantages of being on the road with a TIER scooter, as this was so far only possible in bigger cities. Furthermore, it is the most sustainable concept for scooters that have only been in use for four months and will be replaced by a new model with swappable batteries.

Refurbishment was at the core of the former business of CEO Lawrence Leuschner, reBuy, where appox. 100 million products were refurbished to date. Based on this experience, the company decided for this unique concept to replace the existing fleet while making sure the all scooters remain in use.

Lawrence Leuschner, CEO and co-founder of TIER Mobility: "With our new product myTIER, the best scooter in the German market is now also available for private use. The scooters are only four months old, we refurbish them and they come with a one-year warranty, insurance and a helmet. It is a strong package for an affordable price. We expect such a high demand that not every purchase request can be considered."
