What is Micro Mobility?

Micro mobility is rapidly gaining traction and will soon be a standard mode of transportation for people in metropolitan areas and on college campuses. As more journey-planning platforms include e-scooters and e-bikes, we will use a more holistic approach to this. This latest collaboration of Google Maps and Ford Spin is going to benefit so many people.

How will the Ford Owner Spin technology work?

This integration will help city-dwellers and college-goers alike. Users of Google Maps will be able to view the closest accessible Spin e-bike or e-scooter in real-time. This will also include the time to walk to the vehicle, the estimated battery range and projected arrival time. Users will then be taken to the Spin app to pay for the car, unlock it, and begin their journey. This makes the entire process hassle-free, easily accessible, and increasingly popular.

While this feature isn’t yet available across all states of US, it is still a highly anticipated and valuable integration.
