Discover how an electric skateboard can revolutionise your urban mobility, reduce pollution, and save you time every day.

Urban Mobility

What's the best way
to get around town?

Distance determines the best mode of transport choice. And for the vast majority of urban journeys, personal electric mobility is the way to go.

Analysis

Distance determines
the best transport

🚶 0 to 200m

Walking is the fastest: 0 to 2 minutes. The preparation time for a personal electric vehicle (PLEV) is equivalent to walking time over this distance.

🛹 200m to 2.5km

Electric mobility is the fastest: 1 to 3 minutes. By car, it's 2 minutes of travel but 12 minutes of preparation, not including traffic jams.

🚲 2.5km to 6km

Electric skateboards, scooters, or unicycles remain the fastest in a dense urban environment.

🚗 Beyond 6km

Time depends on traffic and the environment. An EDPM can still be faster than a car in the city depending on the time of day.

Time Lost

Preparation,
that's where it gets tricky

🚶 Walking

No preparation. Decision made, immediate departure.

🚲 Cycling

Around 3 minutes to reach, unchain, and get equipped.

🚗 Car

Around 10 minutes to reach the car and start in an urban environment.

🚌 Public Transport

Up to 20 minutes of waiting depending on the intervals between services.

🛹 Electric EDPM

Charged by the door, ready in seconds. The only preparation: putting on your helmet.

✅ The Verdict

The ANUMME confirms: Personal electric vehicles are the solution to urban decongestion and pollution reduction.

Advantages of
an electric skateboard

📐 Manoeuvrability

Lighter and less bulky than a bicycle or a self-balancing scooter. Fits in your bag, can be carried discreetly.

⚡ Practicality

No preparation. Charged by the front door, it's just waiting for you to go shopping or for a ride.

🏎️ Performance

Powerful motor, speed up to 35 km/h. Limited to 25 km/h by PLEV (Personal Light Electric Vehicle) regulations for your safety.

⛰️ Assistance

Smooth ascents, descents made safe by the brake. The motor torque helps you ride with ease in any situation.

🌿 Freedom

Can be used in freewheel mode like a classic skateboard, or in electric mode for inclines. See the Curve V4.

🗺️ Range

Up to dozens of kilometres depending on the battery. Combined with public transport, it offers complete freedom of movement.
