About 400 scooters, made and operated by California-based Lime, are spread throughout Christchurch. Those numbers will rise to 700 in the near future. 

They can travel at speeds of up to 27kmh and have a maximum range of 48km. 

The scooters are pegged as an easier to ride alternatives than bicycles, while being more suitable for those in more formal clothes. Renting one costs $1 plus 30 cents a minute, the equivalent of $18 an hour. Riders must be 18 to use the scooters.
