“At Helbiz, we strive to embody the local culture in each city we operate in,” said Ruggero Cipriani, Chief Marketing Officer of Helbiz. “Partnering with VOX to launch a new experiential micro-mobility service throughout Washington, D.C. truly demonstrates that dedication. We are thrilled to offer tourists and residents the opportunity to experience the city’s history in an interactive and independent way.”
Helbiz and VOX are bound by the shared vision of innovation, technology and advancing intra-urban mobility. Following the successful launch of the first Helbiz interactive map integration in Rome, the two companies teamed up again to create a Washington, D.C. edition. The service will offer registered Helbiz users a dynamic guided tour across the historical sites of the city via e-scooter. Riders can access the map through the Helbiz mobile app, where they will have the option to select an English or Italian language audio guide package that provides fascinating storytelling about each point of interest.
“Our mapping and audio technology has helped create a new, innovative way for visitors to explore cities,” said Fabio Primerano, CEO of the VOX Group. “In addition to providing access to the historical, artistic, architectural and cultural heritage of Washington, D.C., our digitalization tools also use detailed profiling to tailor each tour to the rider’s personal preferences and interests. We are proud to partner with Helbiz to bring this service to the city of Washington, D.C. and can’t wait for the local community to explore the map.”
Following the deployment of its fleet of electric vehicles in Washington, D.C. earlier this year, Helbiz remains committed to providing the local community and tourists with a variety of ways to discover and experience the city. Since the launch, Helbiz devices have seen more than 220,000 rides and nearly 520,000 total miles, with an average of 2 miles and 18 minutes per individual ride.
