(ECNS) -- Gilded shared bikes powered by wireless charging have hit the streets in Beijing as market competition increases.
A subsidiary of appliance maker Haier Electronics Group Ltd has cooperated with bike-sharing platform Coolqi to launch the golden colored two-wheelers. Haier's wireless unit said the golden color was chosen because it looks jubilant.
The visually striking bike has a cellphone mount, other USB ports and a Lighting connector that allows users to charge their cellphone wirelessly or through a cable.
The first batch of such bikes will be put to use in Beijing, Shanghai, Shenzhen (Guangdong Province), Hangzhou (Zhejiang Province) and Xi'an (Shaanxi Province), according to media reports.
Major station-free bike-sharing companies in Beijing have made their bikes distinctive in color, including the orange MoBike, yellow Ofo and Bluegogo. The latest addition gold ones have created an online sensation.
