  • How does the app work?
    Sign up: we just need some basic details to get you moving including a drivers licence and payment card. Reserve: view onsite vehicle availability and create a reservation period of up to 24 hours. You can also drive at a per minute charge at the rate shown in the app. Access: once you're ready to move, scan the QR code on the vehicle to unlock. Move: you now have the true freedom of electric mobility. Return: once you return to the property, we’ll ask you to check the vehicle for any belongings or new damage, plug the vehicle back in and end your trip in the app. It’s that easy.
  • Am I insured?
    Kite has you covered. The driver is covered on the basis of the rental terms and conditions that you have signed up to with Kite Mobility.
  • Do I pay extra for mileage?
    Every trip includes unlimited mileage. Nothing hidden :)
  • How do I drive a Tesla?

  • How do I unlock a vehicle?
    Once you have set up an account and a vehicle is available, simply scan the QR code located on the vehicle.
  • Do I have to return the vehicle to where I started?

    Once you’ve landed back at your property, return the vehicle to its dedicated parking space, plug the charger into the vehicle and end your trip within the app.
  • How much does it cost?
    Kite charges per minute and as scheduled time - specific prices will vary by vehicle type. Check your property and Kite app for your tailored pricing. At the end of your trip, you will be charged for the amount of minutes or scheduled period that the vehicle was used for.

    In most cases, Kite is available 24/7. This can vary by property type and you'll need to check with their rules for vehicle usage.

It is your responsibility to manage the battery range of the vehicle and successfully return it to your property. If you do run out of battery, you might be liable for a fine and towing fees.
  • What do I do if I’m in an accident?
    If it’s an emergency, call 911. Once everyone is safe, collect full details of any other drivers (name, address, license number, vehicle registration, insurance company) and contact support at 1-855-554-5483 (KITE) or email support@kitemobility.ioto assist with getting you and your vehicle home safely.
