Windsor's new e-bikes cost almost as much as a cab, but advocates say to try them anyway
CBC Excerpt
Jun 7, 2022

Electric bikes may be easier on the environment, but they might not have the same effect on your pocketbook.

A few months after Bird Canada launched its e-scooters in May last year, a limited number of e-bikes also arrived in Windsor. This spring the company brought the e-scooters back out on Windsor's downtown streets, along with about 100 e-bikes.

The vehicles are part of a pilot project that was approved by city council two years ago. While there's been some complaints since the launch related to the way the devices are being used or how they are being parked, active transportation and environmental advocates say it's a good start for the auto-centric city.

But, when it comes to cost, the e-bike isn't necessarily cheaper.

CBC News explored how feasible using an e-bike is compared to a cab. An e-bike and cab were taken from the intersection at Riverside Drive West and Huron Church Road, near the University of Windsor, to Wyandotte Street East and Lincoln Road in Walkerville.

The cab fare ended up being about on par with the e-bike, both costing around $12.00 and that's not including a tip for the cab driver. When looking at Uber, the app said the same route would cost $18 — that's also without a tip for the driver.

According to Bird Canada, it costs $1.15 to activate the e-bike and then $0.42 per minute of use, which begins whether you start riding the bike or not.
