According to Forbes Ukraine, Uklon plans to launch a new product in 2026. According to the company’s vice president for strategy and development, Oksana Rozputna, there are two options for now: scooters and bus transportation.
It became known in the winter of 2024 that Uklon was interested in the bus transportation market. The company planned to start with the most popular routes, and the first country was to be Poland.
Uklon is currently studying the prospects of launching transportation from Ukraine to European countries. We are talking about both regular flights and trips to airports without a clear schedule.
Uklon also became interested in the niche of electric scooter rental. They began exploring it a month after the company was acquired by Kyivstar .
«We are calculating how much we can earn from one scooter ride and from selling one bus ticket,» said Oksana Rozputna.
If Uklon chooses bus transportation, they can integrate the service into an existing application or create their own ticket aggregator.
Uklon plans to decide which product the company will launch in 2026 in the fourth quarter of 2025.
Recall that recently, Uklon CEO Sergey Grishkov spoke about the company’s three-year strategy. Uklon expects the company’s value to grow to $300 million during this period.
