Lyft Launches Scooters in Denver, Increasing Mobility Options While Reducing Congestion

Today, we’re excited to introduce Lyft Scooters to the world for the first time. Scooters are the latest, most fun, and affordable way to get around cities. With scooters, and soon bikes, we’re providing more flexible options for our riders and are working closely with cities, starting with Denver.

Lyft President and Co-Founder John Zimmer lays out our vision for how Lyft Bikes & Scooters will reduce the number of vehicle miles traveled, increase public transportation trips, and provide equitable transportation solutions for all.

By bringing Lyft Scooters to Denver in the Lyft app today, we are one step closer to a full end-to-end experience with multi-modal transportation trips.
