Lime, Jump, Bird, Cityscape: What are the alternatives during the Paris strike?

The RATP and SNCF strike, which began on December 5, will continue on Monday with further disruptions. An opportunity to discover new mobile services? eBike-Generation lists the main alternatives ...

Jump

Jump e-bikes and scooters, integrated into the Uber app, remain one of the best alternatives to get around the capital while avoiding traffic jams. In practice, cars can be found and reserved through the Uber app. Electric bike or scooter, prices charged by the operator are identical. Consider 1 euro when booking and 15 cents per minute of use.

Please note that the service is limited to inland Paris. If you place the machine outside the device at the end of use, you will be charged a € 50 fee.

lime

Straight out of California, Lime is one of the first electric scooter operators to open in Paris. Like Jump, Lime is based on a mobile app for searching and booking scooters.

As for the price, calculate 1 EUR at the time of booking, then 20 cents per minute of use. Please note that the operator requires the client to get into the virtual wallet before using the service for a minimum amount of € 5.

Bird

Bird is one of the most common metropolitan services, not necessarily the most economical. If the first payment of one euro is similar to the one charged by its competitors, the usage rate will be much higher and it will be 25 cents for every minute of use.

City scooter

Although Coup recently decided to close, Cityscoot is the only operator in. With a fleet of several thousand scooters in Paris, the operator also offers an app for finding and booking cars nearby.

Obviously more expensive than electric scooters, the service costs € 0.29 / min without obligation and may even drop to € 0.22 / min for prepaid cardholders.

It should be noted that Cityscoot e-scooters will soon appear on the Uber app as part of a partnership announced between the two companies at Autonomy.

Vélib

Yes, Velib still exists! To some extent overshadowed by the chaotic start of service and the massive arrival of new operators, the device is becoming an alternative in the face of a transport strike. In the non-subscription V-Libre formula, the service is billed: € 1/30 minutes for a classic bike and € 2 for an electric bike.

Unlike other services, it is based on a system of fixed stations distributed throughout the metropolis.

Felix

Don't have the courage to get stuck in traffic? Let yourself be carried away by choosing Felix and his electric taxi motorcycles.

A simple solution that is undoubtedly not the most economical. The cost of the trip will depend on the chosen destination and the travel time.
