Intermodality: How to combine different means of transport in everyday life
There are plenty of means of transport in the city: train, tram, subway, bike, car... No wonder there are often traffic jams, especially during rush hour. But don't worry, there are clever ways to get through the traffic - for example with an EOVOLT Afternoon PRO or another folding e-bike from EOVOLT. Find out here how intermodality can make your life easier!
What is intermodality?
Intermodality simply means combining different modes of transport for a single journey. With the right strategy, you can take advantage of the benefits of each mode of transport and make your journeys more efficient. This saves you both time and money.
Combine car and bicycle
If you live in a suburb or in the countryside, the combination of car and bike can be particularly practical. Park your car in a park-and-ride car park and use your EOVOLT Afternoon PRO for the last few kilometers. This saves you time looking for a parking space, reduces parking fees and avoids traffic jams.
A tip: With a folding bike from EOVOLT, the bike can be easily stored in the trunk without having to fold down the seats. In the office, you can either lock it outside or take it into the building. Folding bikes fit in elevators, through narrow stairwells and even under your desk. This also reduces the risk of theft.
Public transport and bicycle
It is also possible to take your EOVOLT bike on public transport, such as the tram. An EOVOLT folding bike is particularly practical here because it is light and compact. It can easily be taken on public transport without blocking the space of other passengers.
By bike on the train
The train is ideal for longer journeys and connects suburbs and city centers. Many trains are now equipped with special compartments for bicycles. With your EOVOLT bike you can travel on regional trains for free. Intercity and TGV trains usually charge a small fee. If you don't use these trains very often, this is a practical option.
An EOVOLT folding bike is particularly advantageous for train travel: if it measures a maximum of 130 cm x 90 cm, it counts as hand luggage. Simply pack it in a transport bag and you can take it with you at no extra cost. It fits under a seat or in an overhead compartment and is easily accessible.
In summary
The combination of different means of transport makes your everyday life more flexible and efficient. With the EOVOLT folding e-bike you can get through the city quickly and do something for your fitness at the same time. A folding bike from EOVOLT is particularly practical because it is light, compact and versatile. It fits almost anywhere - be it in the car, on the train or under your desk.
