As BIXI bikes get a tune-up and prepare for this season’s official launch, all BIXI Montreal teams are working tirelessly to ensure that bikes can hit the streets before the planned launch date of April 15. Last year, Mother Nature allowed us to kick off the season six days earlier than expected.
Last season ended on a high note, with record-breaking usage numbers and the highest number of new customers ever recorded. Spring is right around the corner and we are hoping to, once again, offer BIXI services to the population as soon as possible,” said Christian Vermette, CEO of BIXI Montreal.
A NEW BIXI SEASON AND A GROWING ELECTRIC FLEET
After doubling the size of BIXI Montreal’s service area between 2020 and 2021, another network expansion has been planned for this year. Customers will have access to more bikes and stations, so that we can ensure the best experience possible. In all, BIXI will add 490 electric bikes, 31 electric stations and 765 docking points.
“The incredible success of electric BIXIs is undeniable and our electric offering will continue to grow this spring with the addition of more bikes and stations. BIXI is proud to be a global pioneer and to provide access to one of the largest bike-sharing services in North America in this modern, green and forward-thinking city where biking never ceases to gain in popularity. Today, we continue to deploy one of the largest electric fleets in the world,” added Christian Vermette, CEO of BIXI Montreal.
GREAT PRESEASON DEALS ARE BACK STARTING TODAY!
BIXISTS looking for a great preseason deal on their seasonal membership for $83 plus tax (10% off the regular price), as well as all the great advantages of being a member, are invited to purchase their pass on the BIXI website or mobile app!
As the lockdown lifts across Quebec, BIXI’s regular and electric bikes really are the ideal mode of transportation, now more than ever. The bike will be ubiquitous on Montreal’s streets again this year, offering a combination of outdoor leisure, speedy transportation, flexibility, user-friendliness and 24/7 availability. In addition, customers will only pay for their actual usage time this year.
