The service has become a popular way of travelling, with over 400 weekly rentals in the last two months.
IoScoot is first motorbike sharing service in Malta, operating through a pay-per-use platform and a fully electric fleet of 70 bikes, strategically stationed between St Julian’s and Valletta, including the University of Malta.
