Russian tech giant Yandex will launch electric scooters rental service in Moscow on Wednesday, the company said, tapping into surging demand across the city, APA reports citing Reuters.
Electric scooters are a common sight in Moscow during summer, whizzing around the city's parks and pavements, but authorities have been forced to impose speed limits following a string of accidents.
The service will be launched on the Yandex.Go app, the company's one-stop-shop for ride-hailing, food delivery and other services, Yandex said.
Yandex did not say how many scooters it would be launching, nor how much it had spent on the venture.
