Our vision is to revolutionise the way New Zealanders commute!
The team at Freed and our already loyal customers know that Personal Electric Vehicles (PEVs) provide a terrific sense of freedom for your commute or fun in your spare time. It is a great solution to your transportation needs. Freed was started by Kiwi blokes, Patrick, Callum and Geoff. New owner Jen moved the store to Westhaven Drive, and then to our current location at 159 Nelson Street.

We are at the forefront of the market, scouring the world for the best products, ensuring we provide the best quality, for the best price.

My earliest memory of scooters is using one to escape a pack of wild dogs. As a child, I'd saved up and brought a slice Creme Brulee Cheesecake from my favourite local bakery. I was looking forward to scootering home and eating it in front of the greatest TV show, Coronation street (old Arthur had just found his wife who was missing for 20 years, she'd just popped out to get a new perm, which looked awful! It was quite the scandal).
I'd got about half way home and a dog started following me. A few minutes later, another dog had joined, followed by another, then two more. I knew as self trained dog expert, the wagging tales and sinister drooling, they wanted my hard earned cheesecake! I was furious! But reality kicked in when one of them licked my hand. I knew (as a dog expert) they had offered me a deal, my life or the cheesecake. I admit I did what I had to do, I doubled my efforts to scoot faster, but I could not outrun their bloodlust. They tore my prized cheesecake slice to shreds, not a crumb, not a single morsel was left.
I WAS DEVASTATED!
I vowed that day I would never use a scooter without a an electric instant torque motor! I now make it my mission that no other child should have to fear loosing the greatest dessert ever!

2IC Scooter Technician
I started using hire scooters to get around and quickly realised how expensive they can be. I researched for ages and joined the Auckland E-scooter club. My first e scooter was a Mantis 10 base and my second scooter is a King GT.
I love exploring everywhere and finding new ways to get around with my scooter, be it fishing or towing someone around the Huia Dam.
My goal is to be able to travel city to city, eliminating the need for petrol. I've done a few mods including fishing rod holders, LED lights for better visibility and a storage seat that has two compartments.
I do enjoy my job. I love hands on work and solving problems.
Owner, Floor Sweeper, Scooter Enthusiast
Originally graduating from Otago University with a B.Com Jen worked first in Media, and then as a Teacher. After a lengthy search Jen was delighted to become the new owner of Freedpev in 2020 and threw herself into the task of learning everything there is to know about electric scooters.
Frequently surprising a certain demographic, Jen can often be seen 'on the tools' in the workshop getting grease on her clothes and ruining fingernails trying to repair Xiaomi punctures, although she prefers to let the experts in the workshop do the big jobs.
Jen is a bit of a greenie at heart and her mission is to promote micro mobility in urban centres around Auckland and other New Zealand cities.
As a devout city girl, Jen can only see the benefits of the electric vehicle revolution in air quality and of micro-mobility in reducing congestion on the roads, making the city livable again.
"I have been a teacher and a video editor. Owning a business was a dream for years and finding Freed was a dream come true."
"My mission is to clear the city of cars, and I love it when a new customer can save money and reduce emissions by switching to an electric scooter. My favourite thing is when customers rave about how much they love their commute on their new scooters."
