The international electric micromobility promotion platform e-scooter.co launched an import intermediary platform that enables local sellers and international logistics specialists to service customers that want to import an electric vehicle from other countries.

e-scooter.co started to accept import purchase requests about 1,5 years ago and over 30 000 people have submitted a request since, with over 23 requests pending from the countries Oʻzbekiston, Turkmaniston, Afg'oniston, Qirgʻiziston, Qozogʻiston va Tojikiston with a combined revenue of 1 671 780 121 soʻm, which excludes revenue from additional services that can be sold to customers such as insurance, finance, maintenance service and the primary import service fee, which may double the revenue potential with a high profit margin.

Why Electric Vehicles Face Difficulties

There are various reasons why electric micromobility products face great difficulties to enter the market despite their great advantages such as significant cost-saving for owners.

For example, electric scooters and mopeds literally save up to 90% of maintenance costs which undermines the business model of the existing sales infrastructure of petrol-engine based vehicles, hindering those established outlets to sell electric models.

Manufacturing Disruption

While the existing petrol-engine based service infrastructure can't financially sustain itself with electric models from established brands, the brands themselves face profound disruption from the much bigger component industry that enables smaller startups to create high quality mobility products.

For example, the 🇩🇪 German brand Bosch has been developing advanced and reliable electric motor kits that includes a dashboard and electrical system and the innovative startup Edison Motors from 🇹🇭 Thailand launched a scooter barebone platform that enables other startups to create new models.

The manufacturing scale 3D printing industry causes further disruption in this space.

Big Petrol Brands Not Motivated to Enter The Market

The manufacturing disruption trajectory caused big brands early on in 2010-2015 to make a hard decision to not enter the electric vehicle market, or to enter it in a way that didn't unlock its full potential for the greatest possible market.

Some have criticized 🇮🇹 Italian Vespa-Piaggio for example for introducing an electric model that costs twice as much as the petrol version for an effective driving range of only 60 km while advertising a driving range of 100 km, and while not having a removable battery.

By comparison, the petrol version of the same Vespa model has a reliable driving range of 280 km and Vespa is unlikely to have failed to deliver on the electric driving range by accident.

In practice, this electric vehicle largely stimulated the sales of petrol models on economic grounds and is likely to have been introduced for that purpose despite that some people have been happy to pay 97 348 307 soʻm for an iconic electric Vespa while the petrol version costs 48 674 154 soʻm.

Scared away from both ends

Small disruptors scared of going global

While established big brands were financially reluctant to enter the market in the first place, smaller startups (manufacturing disruptors), due to scale-ing and logistics related problems, often remained limited to sales in a single country or a small region.

As an example, the unique Carver scooter-car or the GiGi foldable moped from the 🇳🇱 Netherlands are not yet sold internationally while there has been a significant demand for over a decade. In the 🇺🇸 US alone over 14 740 006 215 soʻm in orders for the Carver were sent in on e-scooter.co and someone from 🇮🇳 India sent the following message in his purchase request on March 1, 2025.

I want carver in India

An interaction with the founder of Dutch startup GiGi learned that the company initially had high ambitions but ultimately was scared away from selling internationally.

Selling can be easy but what if something breaks? Then there has to be a local party that can provide service. We do have the EEC certificates but we only want to enter a market when we are financially ready for it.

This line of reasoning makes sense and is common from the perspective of small manufacturers but the problem for international access for customers is that this line of reasoning intensifies over time when a manufacturer aspires to improve its quality and service.

In practice, this results in a high potential vehicle not becoming available in other countries, despite potential high demand.

GiGi, one of the first electric moped pioneers in the Netherlands with high international ambitions and EEC certificates, now decades later, never went beyond the Dutch border.

A Solution For The Market

Connecting Buyers with Import Intermediary's

The simple function of the e-scooter.co platform is to connect import intermediary's (sellers, importers or logistics specialists) with buyers. Quality service and reliable business are ensured through Escrow payment by the customer.

An example customer review reveals how the service might work in practice:

(sharoyit misoli) Men Gogoro Pulse giperskuterini Niderlandiyaga Vetnamdan Tayvandan Rotterdamga yuk jo'natgan tashuvchining UShip.com orqali tashkil qilingan transport tashish joyida bo'sh joydan foydalangan holda bugun qo'lga kiritdim.

Skuter mening eshigim oldiga yetkazib berildi va sotib olish jarayoni e-scooter.co dagi sotib olish so'rovimga javob bergan import vositachisi bilan kelishilganidek amalga oshirildi.

Skuterni Niderlandiyada ro'yxatga olish biroz qo'shimcha hujjatlar talab qildi, ammo oxir-oqibat muvaffaqiyatli yakunlandi. Skuter uchun to'lagan umumiy narx mening mamlakatimdagi yangi Vespa Elettrica narxidan pastroq.

Bugun Niderlandiyada birinchi bo'lib bu skuterni haydashim ajablantiradi! Gogoro Pulse Hyperscooter Niderlandiyadagi ko'pchina avtomobillarga qaraganda tezroq tezlikka erishadi va Gogoro o'z transport vositalarini Yevropa qismlari bilan har qanday mototsikl do'konida oson texnik xizmat ko'rsatish uchun mo'ljallagan, shuning uchun texnik xizmat arzon va oson.

Baxtli mijoz!

A Simple Business Model

Butun dunyo bo'ylab eng yangi modellarga kirish evaziga mijozlar o'z mamlakatlarida kafolat, xizmat va ro'yxatdan o'tish uchun to'liq mas'uliyatni o'z zimmalariga oladi. Mijoz, agar ishlab chiqaruvchi ma'lum bir mamlakatda kafolat xizmatini ko'rsatishdan bosh tortsa, ishlab chiqaruvchi tomonidan kafolat xizmatidan voz kechishni ham qabul qiladi.

Natijada oddiy bitim biznes modeli hosil bo'ladi: mijoz transport vositasini yetkazib berish uchun to'laydi. Ushbu xizmat bajarilgach, bitim yakunlanadi va uzoq muddatli mijoz qoniqishi va xizmat bilan bog'liq muammolar xavfi mavjud emas.

Mijozlar xursand bo'lishadi va ularning mobil yechimi ular uchun samarali bo'ladi

Amalda elektr transport vositalari yuqori ishonchliligi va 90% gacha kamroq texnik xizmat talab qilishi isbotlangan.

Asosiy texnik xizmatdan tashqari, ko'pgina elektr skuterlar va mopedlar qo'shimcha texnik xizmatsiz o'nlab yillar davomida osongina ishlashda davom etadi. Elektr tizimlari osondan buzilmaydi va zamonaviy transport vositalari IP sertifikatli suv va changdan himoyalangan bo'lib, ular uzoq yillar davomida xizmat qiladi.

Mikromobilitetdagi elektr motor deyarli hech qachon buzilmaydi va yetkazib berish paytida oldindan muammolar tug'dirmaydi. Elektr motor texnik xizmatsiz 50 yil davomida osongina ishlashi mumkin.

Zamonaviy elektr transport vositalari ishlab chiqaruvchi tomonidan havo orqali texnik xizmat ko'rsatishni oladi, bunga dasturiy ta'minot yangilanishlari, transport vositasi holatini monitoring qilish va uning yaxshi holatini saqlash uchun proaktiv ogohlantirishlar kiradi. Bu mijozlar uchun amaliyotda zavod kafolati xizmatisiz ham barqaror va samarali mobil yechimni qo'shimcha ravishda ta'minlaydi.

Zamonaviy xizmatlardan aqlli foydalanish xalqaro logistikanini osonlashtirishi mumkin

UShip.com kabi xizmatlar transport vositalarini butun dunyo bo'ylab arzon narxda jo'natishni osonlashtiradi. Ushipda xalqaro tashuvchilar bo'sh transport joylarini mijozlarning individual buyurtmalari bilan to'ldirishlari mumkin, masalan Tailanddagi dilerdan Germaniyadagi mijozga elektr skuter yoki moped yetkazib berish.

Ba'zi transport vositalarini ro'yxatdan o'tkazish ba'zi mamlakatlarda qiyin bo'lishi mumkin, ammo har bir muvaffaqiyatdan keyin keyingi jarayon tezlashadi va bu xizmatni mijozlarga taqdim etish talab qilinmaydi.

Foydali va yuqori daromad potentsiali

Mamlakatda mavjud bo'lmagan modellarni import qilish mijozlar uchun juda eksklyuzivdir va mijozlar o'zlarining istagan modelini bugungi kunda olish uchun yuqori narx to'lashga tayyor.
