Operated by Israel-based electric scooter brand Inokim, LEO’s service has recently been soft-launched in Tel Aviv and an official launch is scheduled for later this month. According to its statement, LEO intends to expand the service to additional locations in Israel, including Haifa in Israel’s north and Red Sea resort town Eilat. LEO is also planning to start operating outside of Israel, the company said.
