Like Dance, Motto, Swapfiets, or Red-Will, Vässla now offers a rental electric bicycle.
A few months after launching its bike in Paris with its pedal-assisted bike, Swedish company Vässla is expanding its rental offerings with an electric assist bicycle this time.
Featuring a unisex frame, the Vässla Pedal reflects Scandinavian design trends. The cables have been concealed to emphasize the bike’s simple and minimalist aesthetic, which is equipped with 24-inch wheels.
Vässla assures that its bike is suitable for all body types, and features a saddle specifically designed “to relieve pressure on the wrist and neck”. The electric motor delivers 250 W and 45 Nm of torque. Located at the rear, it provides what Vässla claims is the most significant assistance on the market. Users can choose from 3 modes to adjust the assistance level.
The Vässla Pedal can be unlocked remotely via a mobile app, which also provides access to ride information.
Vässla Satisfied with Its Beginnings in France
Vässla has been available in Paris since September 22. Three plans are offered, starting at €69 per month. Regardless of the plan selected, the rental is €10 cheaper than that of the pedal-assisted bike.
| Flex (no commitment) | Pro6 (6 months) | Pro12 (12 months) | |
| Vässla Pedal Rental | 79 € + €49 registration fee | 79 € No registration fee | 69 € No registration fee |
On the occasion of this launch, Vässla reflected on its start in Paris. The company, also present in Sweden, Spain, and Germany, claims to have recorded “hundreds of subscriptions” since arriving in the capital in May 2022, with a subscription peak in August. The most popular plan is the 6-month subscription, chosen by 90% of customers.
