Bethel, CT -- Connecticut-based Lynx City electric scooters is going national. This month the Bethel-based company is launching 200 Lynx City scooters onto the streets and byways of Orlando, the third largest metropolitan location in Florida and the number one travel destination in the country.
“Micro mobility transportation is gaining in popularity. It’s fast, cheap and fun and we are thrilled to be making our southern debut in Orlando, which is not only the US’s top tourist draw, but has a burgeoning population,” says Alan Moisio, Lynx’s CEO.
Says Lynx City C.O.O., David Harvey: “We rolled out our first fleet of scooters in New Milford, here in Connecticut, with rave reviews. Now we are introducing this 100% green mode of transportation to Florida. Hop on, we are experiencing a micro-mobility revolution and it’s just the beginning. We are following this up by expanding in Connecticut towns and cities this spring, and first on the Lynx map is Bridgeport.”
