“The advantage of durable products and leasing design.” FH Salzburg
Master thesis
E-Bike concept
How does design change with a rental product, explicitly tailored to a new product-service-system?
Leasing services are beneficial for sustainable consumer behaviour. This particular e-bike concept always remains property of the company and can be rented by customers on a monthly basis. Less products get produced which have a longer life time as the company takes care of a refurbishment but also a proper disposal.
Although this e-Bike comes with a battery as well as an integrated display, it contributes a sustainable behaviour for commuters.
