For the first time, sales of electric bicycles exceeded those of motor scooters (50 cc engine or smaller). In 2008, domestic sales of electric bicycles - bikes with an electric engine that turns on when you pedal, thus making it easier to go up hills and faster - reached 315,000 units. In contrast, motor bike sales lagged behind at 295,000 units.
This contrasts with 1999 figures: 160,000 for the bikes, more than 600,000 for motor bikes.
Even though electric bikes are often more expensive, they use no gas and can be parked for free anywhere.
