Lime to Take over some E-Scooter Operations in Canada From Neuron Amid Acquisition
Lime plans to take over the rental program after buying Neuron Canada, which had 500 bikes and scooters available in the region.
- On Friday, Lime Technology Canada acquired rival Neuron Canada, ending the electric scooter and bike rental service in Waterloo, Kitchener, and Cambridge immediately.
- Neuron originally introduced the orange e-scooter and bike service to the region in April 2023 with 500 available units, expanding rental stations throughout the area in 2024.
- Rachel Rappaport, Lime Canada's senior regional lead of government relations, declined to disclose the deal's value, though the transaction covers Neuron's operations across 12 Canadian cities and regions.
- Following a brief transition period, Lime will assume operations from Neuron on a city-by-city basis throughout the coming months, ultimately operating under the Lime brand.
- Local officials are working with Lime to ensure the rental program continues, while Neuron removes all existing equipment from the region following the sale.
