_{Reading time: 2min.}

After deploying our solution in Barcelona, San Sebastian, La Coruña and soon in Madrid, Lyft Urban Solutions is pleased to continue its expansion in Spain with the deployment of a new bike sharing solution in the city of Valladolid, in collaboration with AUVASA , the city’s public transport authority.

We are delighted to announce the launch of Biki, Valladolid's new bike sharing system. In partnership with Serveo, 950 FIT bikes and E-FIT e-bikes have been deployed and are now ready to be ridden by the city's residents and tourists, along with 97 Lyft Urban Solutions smart stations. The city will benefit from a total fleet of 1678 bikes and e-bikes.

A sturdy fleet, accessible to the widest majority

Biki's modern and accessible fleet, operated by Movus, is made up of 25% electric bikes. As e-bikes continue to captivate cities and users, they are a perfect alternative for short or long trips in the city. Not only does it allow users to get around quickly and avoid traffic congestion, but it also requires minimal effort. Our cyclists arrive at their destination happy and without breaking a sweat! 

Equipped with a 250-watt motor, the Lyft Urban Solutions E-FIT can propel cyclists up to 25 km/h, and it has a battery autonomy lasting up to 70 km. Cyclists can extend their ride without any worries! For those who would rather use a regular bike, they will have the option of riding our FIT model. Convenient, lightweight and easy to handle, it's the perfect way to get around for daily commutes.

Biki bikes bring a new and modern look to the city. Featuring a vibrant orange color for the FIT and a nice, soft turquoise color for the E-FIT, the new bikes have adopted a trendy, modern and unique design. With such colors, they are not likely to go unnoticed in the city streets! 

A state-of-the-art solution!

Once docked in stations, e-bikes are automatically and quickly recharged at the stations.

The city of Valladolid will also be equipped with our best-in-class technology! Used in more than 40 cities around the world, our Lyft Urban Solutions mobile app allows users to quickly locate and unlock bikes by scanning QR codes with their smartphones. 

Worthy of a modern and dynamic city, Valladolid promotes healthy and eco-friendly transportation through its strategy towards sustainable mobility. We are proud to offer to Valladolid's residents and tourists, a modern and customized solution that is both accessible, healthy and sustainable, in line with commuters' needs and the city's environmental objectives.
