>So if they can design a scooter with better durability and lower cost (becomes easier at scale) they can get the profitability up pretty quickly Only to highlight how this appears like a pure truism: renting cheaper and longer lasting products (at the same fee/price level) increases profitability ... The 28/32 days lifetime sounds more than a tad bit "off" by any possible standard, particularly if the 3.49 trips by 1.63 miles are accurate. 30x3.49x1.63= 171 miles lifespan? or - maybe easier to evaluate - 30x3.49x18 minutes=1885 minutes or 1885/60= 32 hours lifespan?
