As transportation costs continue to rise, communities need smarter alternatives to private vehicle ownership. By partnering with Tricon Living, we’re embedding shared electric mobility directly into residential communities and turning transportation into an amenity rather than a burden. This is a powerful example of how real estate developers and mobility innovators can work together to make cities more affordable, more sustainable, and more livable.” – Scott Macwilliam, Founder, CEO, Kite Mobility Inc.For Tricon Living, the partnership introduces a differentiated resident amenity that enhances convenience, supports sustainability goals, and helps meet the evolving expectations of urban renters.
