MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif., Dec. 04, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- ACTON, the leading designer and manufacturer of advanced and innovative micro transportation devices like electric skateboards, skates and scooters, today announces the new M Scooter Pro, a commercial e-scooter launching to the public in January. This marks ACTON’s entrance into the commercial transportation market as the first and only company to offer scooters that are specifically designed for fleet. The M Scooter Pro is built to last longer, helping increase profitability for scooter companies, convenience for cities, corporations and campuses and improve the safety and experience for riders.
ACTON’s M Scooter Pro is the solution for the many issues currently plaguing the shared e-scooter market. Unlike other scooter manufacturers, the M Scooter Pro is engineered for durability in the urban environment from the get-go. An introductory range of 30 plus miles on a single charge is just the beginning. The scooter is built using premium materials and manufacturing processes that significantly increase the reliability and longevity of each unit, lowering the cost of maintenance and simplifying the servicing process with individual parts that can easily be replaced once worn out.
“Our team has highly specialized experience in the field of micro-transportation as we were one of the first ‘Last Mile’-specific manufacturers. We have excelled at creating smart, technologically advanced mobility devices for many years, starting back when no one even knew what micro-transportation was,” says ACTON CTO and co-founder Peter Treadway. “With the recent surge of scooter-sharing programs, we noticed a gap in the market for a dependable, long-lasting, sustainable scooter. We leveraged our vast knowledge and experience to provide these companies with a more reliable and profitable scooter. It’s built like a vehicle, not a toy, to withstand the everyday wear and tear of commercial use, meantime, offering a smoother and better riding experience for riders.”
The M Scooter Pro is the first line of fleet-ready scooters that are customizable with optional add-on accessories, including phone mounts, baskets, cupholders and Smart features. The vehicle seamlessly plugs into existing network infrastructures with features including a Smart lock and integrated IoT box with geofencing capabilities that allow companies to control the locations in which the scooter can be parked.
ACTON is now accepting orders for the M Scooter Pro, which will begin shipping in Q1 2019. For more information on ACTON visit www.ACTONglobal.com, or to inquire about the new M Scooter Pro email info@actonglobal.com.
