Buy a motorcycle and gain two hours of free time per day! It may seem like a lie, but the numbers from our comparison between the Honda Elite 125 and public transportation don't lie and showed exactly that: those who use a motorcycle (or scooter) travel the same route with an hour's advantage. For our comparison, we chose the route between Tremembé (far North Zone) and Shopping Morumbi (South Zone). Reporter Cicero Lima @cicero_moto covered the 35 km stretch using buses, subway and trains. It took him 2 hours to get to his destination... Meanwhile, we invited influencer Liane Benz @benz_liah to travel the same route, starting from the same point, with a Honda Elite 125 scooter. Lia needed 1 hour to get to Shopping Morumbi. In addition to the time advantage, those who used the scooter had the ease of choosing their route and didn't have to worry about public transportation. In the afternoon, both repeated the route and, once again, the scooter showed the same advantage in terms of time. “I used the Blue Lane, which makes life much easier for motorcyclists,” said Lia. In turn, Cicero criticized the hassle. “The train was very crowded, as were the corridors and also the bus at the end of the route, I was standing for more than two hours...” In addition to saving time, the fuel cost was very low compared to public transportation. Cicero spent R$20 on tickets while Lia needed R$11.56 on fuel to travel the same distance. Doing the math, at the end of the week the public transportation user would spend R$100 while the motorcyclist would pay R$57.80, a difference of R$42.20 in favor of the two-wheeled vehicle.
