By E-Bike with Voi

Looking for a quicker, greener and more affordable way to get around Aberdeen? Voi's fleet of electric bikes is now available across the city, giving residents, commuters and visitors an easy way to travel while reducing emissions.

With up to 350 e-bikes available throughout Aberdeen, whether you're commuting to work, visiting friends, running errands or exploring the city, Voi offers a convenient alternative to driving.

Choose the Right E-Bike for Your Journey

Aberdeen's fleet includes two modern e-bike models, each designed to make cycling more accessible and enjoyable.

Explorer 4

The Explorer 4 is ideal for everyday journeys, offering a comfortable ride with a larger front basket, a soft saddle and simple adjustments to suit riders of different heights.

Explorer Light 1

Designed with accessibility in mind, the Explorer Light 1 is around 25% lighter than a standard e-bike, making it easier to handle while still providing the same reliable electric assistance.

How to Get Started

Getting started couldn't be simpler.

  1. Download the Voi app from the Apple App Store or Google Play Store.
  2. Create your account and add your payment details.
  3. Find a nearby bike using the app.
  4. Unlock your bike, enjoy your ride and park at an approved location when you've finished.

Please note: You'll need a compatible smartphone with the Voi app and an internet connection to locate, unlock and pay for your e-bike.

Affordable Ways to Travel

Voi offers flexible pricing to suit different types of journeys.

For Aberdeen residents, the Equitable Access Scheme provides discounted travel, including 20-minute rides for just £1.75. The scheme also supports a range of eligible users, including people on lower incomes, students, emergency service workers and other qualifying groups.

Whether you're making a quick trip across the city centre or replacing part of your daily commute, Voi makes cycling an affordable transport option.

Parking Made Easy

To help keep Aberdeen's streets safe and accessible, all journeys must begin and end at designated Voi parking bays.

These approved parking locations are clearly shown in the Voi app and are marked on the street. After every ride, you'll be asked to upload a photo of your parked bike to confirm it has been left correctly.

This helps keep pavements clear and ensures bikes are available where they're needed most.

Help Shape the Service

Voi continues to work closely with Aberdeen City Council and local communities to improve the service based on rider feedback.

If you have comments, suggestions or experience to share, you can contact the Voi support team at support@voi.com.
