Karhoo is offering its taxis and private hire vehicles as part of Iomob’s Mobility as a Service (8356 MaaS) offerings on projects throughout Europe.


Karhoo CEO Boris Pillchowski says Iomob’s solution of marrying scooters and bicycles with Karhoo’s vehicles will help customers navigate cities more efficiently.

Additionally, Iomob has secured pilot projects with Spanish rail service Renfe and the government of Sweden.

In a separate move, Karhoo has joined the Dutch association for mobility Koninklijk Nederlands Vervoer (KNV). Karhoo is now part of the association’s mobility branch KNV Taxi and will attend annual events, conferences and committee meetings.

Nicolas Andine, Karhoo’s co-CEO says “widespread disruption” has left many small operators “on the back foot”.

“Through cross-industry and public sector collaboration, we can make the market work for everyone,” he adds.
