Meanwhile others started to think in a slightly different way, looking into electric scooters. Tredco for Engineering Industries took the first step and launched an assembly line for the Glide Electric Scooter in Egypt to become the first company to invest roughly EGP 30m in that field. Similarly, the maintenance expenses of electric scooters are less than these of traditional ones, he added. The Glide scooters also do not waste fuel, and has a zero-dB noise level with no heat at all, El-Sayad mentioned. In the next two years, Tredco will invest more money to increase the local components in its products.
