33% Americans Ready To Trade Car For Scooter
Nearly one-third of American consumers “would be extremely or somewhat likely to consider using a motor scooter for their everyday transportation needs,” leads off a May 22, 2006 article on PRNewswire. Participants in the May survey “indicted a willingness to transfer 35% of their weekly mileage to a scooter.” While soaring gas prices was the strongest motivating factor, the survey found that “33% of Americans would be likely to use a scooter to reduce emission harmful to the environment, 35% would be likely to use a scooter to save $25.00 a week on gasoline.”
Long recognized in Europe and Asia as a smart mode of personal transportation, scooters are becoming increasingly popular in America with dealers expecting record sales this summer.
