The LEVA-EU member has been selected as the bicycle supplier for Bubi 3.0, Budapest’s next-generation public bike-sharing system, representing a major step forward for shared urban mobility in the Hungarian capital, a significant milestone for all partners involved in the contract obtained by INURBA Mobility.
The Bubi 3.0 programme will see a progressive rollout of up to 5,000 bicycles across Budapest, including approximately 1,000 electric bikes. The system will be deployed through an extensive network of stations and mobility hubs, known as Mobi-Points, designed to strengthen intermodality and improve everyday access to shared cycling for residents and visitors alike.
OEMBikes’ appointment follows a competitive tender process and positions the company at the heart of one of Europe’s most ambitious public bike-sharing upgrades. While winning the tender marks an important achievement, OEMBikes emphasises that the focus now shifts firmly to delivery, working closely with INURBA Mobility and fellow partners Urban Sharing and Qucit to implement a reliable, scalable and future-ready system.
INURBA Mobility, which will lead operations and system delivery, has highlighted Bubi 3.0 as a major leap forward in terms of scale, technology and service quality for Budapest. The company will contribute its operational and technical expertise to ensure a user-centric service aligned with the city’s long-term mobility objectives.
OEMBikes has acknowledged the trust placed in the consortium and underscored the importance of collaboration in bringing the project to life. The company has expressed confidence that the combined experience of all partners, alongside close cooperation with BKK – Budapest Transport Centre, will translate strategic ambition into measurable, real-world impact.
As the project moves into its implementation phase, OEMBikes and its partners are preparing to deliver a system designed to make cycling a more accessible, attractive and integral part of daily transport in Budapest.
