| Consolidation | Basis of Presentation The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and include the accounts of the Company and its majority owned subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

| Use of Estimates | Use of Estimates The preparation of these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions, which affect the reported amounts in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Management evaluates its estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis and makes adjustments when facts and circumstances dictate. The most significant estimates include the selection of useful lives of vehicle assets, the determination of the claims reserve, the determination of fair value of the Company’s common stock, fair value of financial instruments, the excess and obsolescence reserve on capitalized spare parts, and the tax valuation allowance. The Company’s operations and financial performance mean that these estimates may change in future periods, as new events occur, and additional information is obtained. These estimates are based on information available as of the date of these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements; therefore, actual results could differ from estimates.
|
| Concentrations of Credit Risk | Concentrations of Credit Risk Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, trade accounts receivable, and supplier purchases. Significant customers are those which represent more than 10% of the Company’s total revenue or gross accounts receivable balance at each balance sheet date.
|
| Lease Revenue | Lease Revenue Pay-As-You-Go allows riders to pay for usage based on the duration per session. The single-use rental of the Company’s vehicles by riders is considered an operating lease pursuant to ASC 842, under which the Company is the lessor. The Company has fixed lease payments, in the form of unlock fees that are fixed charges to access the vehicles, and variable lease payments, in the form of per minute usage fees. The Company treats any credit, coupon, or rider incentives as a reduction to the revenue for the ride in the period to which it relates. As the lease term is less than one day, the Company recognizes fixed lease payments (i.e., the unlock fees) and variable lease payments (i.e., usage minus lease incentives), at the time the ride is complete, on the same day the lease commenced.
|
| Revenue from Contracts with Customers | Revenue from Contracts with Customers The Company also recognizes revenue pursuant to ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. This primarily relates to LimePass which consists of minute bundles and LimePrime. Minute bundles allow for the purchase of discounted ride minutes, offered at different increments, which can be used across multiple rides for a period of time ranging from 1 to 30 days. LimePrime is a recurring monthly subscription that provides riders with benefits such as free unlocks and extended vehicle reservations. In addition, starting in the first quarter of 2026, the Company rolled out a new LimePrime option for unlimited flat-rate rides, up to 20 minutes each. The services provided by the Company that are based on usage, such as minute bundles, are recognized using an output method, generally as the minutes are used, as this reflects the pattern of transfer for these services. The services provided by the Company for fixed monthly subscriptions, such as LimePrime, are considered stand-ready performance obligations where riders benefit from the services evenly throughout the service period. Revenue is recognized on a ratable basis over the contractual period of the arrangement beginning when or as control of the promised services is transferred to the customer as this reflects the pattern of transfer for these services. The Company also estimates the portion of customer rights that will never be redeemed (“breakage”) and for which there is no legal obligation to remit the value of the unredeemed balance to the relevant jurisdiction as unclaimed or abandoned property. To the extent the Company has a basis for estimating breakage, the Company will recognize the breakage amounts as revenue, proportionate to the pattern of rights exercised by the customer. However, as the Company does not have a basis for estimating breakage, the Company will recognize breakage revenue when the likelihood of customer redemption, based on historical experience or long periods of inactivity, is remote. The Company’s revenue contracts do not result in significant obligations associated with returns, refunds or warranties. The Company’s payment terms are generally fixed and do not include variable revenues or consideration. LimePass arrangements are paid in advance resulting in a contract liability. For both lease revenue and revenue from contracts with customers, the Company excludes all taxes assessed by a governmental authority that are both imposed on and concurrent with a specific revenue producing transaction and collected by the Company from a customer and remitted to governmental authorities. Accordingly, such amounts are not included as a component of revenue or cost of revenue.

| Stock-Based Compensation | Stock-Based Compensation Stock-based compensation expense is measured and recorded based on the grant-date fair value of the stock-based awards. The fair value of the shares of common stock underlying the stock options and restricted stock units (“RSUs”) on the grant date has been determined by the board of directors, as there was no public market for the underlying common stock at the time of issuance. The Company recognizes stock-based compensation expense for service-based awards on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of the individual grant, generally equal to the vesting period. The Company records forfeitures as they occur. The Company uses the Black-Scholes-Merton option-pricing model (“Black-Scholes model”) to determine the fair value of stock option awards. The Black-Scholes model requires the use of objective and subjective assumptions, including the fair value of common stock, expected volatility, risk free interest rate, expected dividend and option’s expected term of the underlying stock. The Company estimates the fair value of RSUs based on the fair market value of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant. The RSUs granted by the Company include both a service-based and performance-based liquidity event vesting condition. Compensation cost related to these RSUs must be recognized over the requisite service period using the accelerated attribution method, if it is probable that the performance-based liquidity event vesting condition will be satisfied. The performance-based condition was satisfied as of June 30, 2026.

| Deferred Offering Costs | Deferred Offering Costs Deferred offering costs, which consist of direct incremental legal, accounting, consulting and other fees relating to an initial public offering, are capitalized. The deferred offering costs will be offset against initial public offering proceeds upon the consummation of the initial public offering in July 2026.

| Recent Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted | Recent Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which improves the transparency of income tax disclosures by requiring consistent categories and greater disaggregation of information in the effective tax rate reconciliation and income taxes paid disaggregated by jurisdiction. It also includes certain other amendments to improve the effectiveness of income tax disclosures. This new standard is effective for the Company’s annual period beginning January 1, 2026. Upon adoption, the guidance can be applied prospectively or retrospectively. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the guidance on the consolidated financial statements. In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses (“ASU 2024-03”). ASU 2024-03 requires additional disclosure of the nature of expenses included in the income statement as well as disclosures about specific types of expenses included in the expense captions within the income statement. In January 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-01, Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40) Clarifying the Effective Date. The amendments in this update may be applied either prospectively or retrospectively, and are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. The Company is evaluating the impact that this guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-06, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software (“ASU 2025-06”). ASU 2025-06 modernizes the accounting for costs related to internal-use software in ASC 350-40 to reflect the software development approaches currently used. Specifically, the FASB observed that software is not always developed in a linear manner, which is an underlying tenet of the existing internal-use software capitalization framework. To clarify how the guidance applies to both linear and nonlinear software development, the ASU removes all references to “development stages” from ASC 350-40 and changes the criteria to determine when development cost capitalization should begin. The amendments in this ASU are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted. Entities are permitted to apply the ASU on a prospective, retrospective or modified transition approach. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this new accounting guidance on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

| Derivative Financial Instruments | Derivative Financial Instruments During the three months ended June 30, 2026, the Company began entering into derivatives not designated as hedging instruments to manage foreign exchange risk related to the remeasurement of monetary assets or liabilities denominated in currencies other than the functional currency of a subsidiary. Gains and losses on these foreign exchange derivatives are recorded within the "foreign currency exchange (losses) gains, net" component of other expense, net on the condensed consolidated statements of operations. The derivative instruments are recognized at gross fair value within prepaid expenses and other current assets and accrued liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.
|
| Convertible Preferred Stock Warrants | Convertible Preferred Stock Warrants The Company issued warrants to purchase shares of the Company’s Series B convertible preferred stock which are recognized in other long-term liabilities on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets, as the convertible preferred shares underlying the warrants are contingently redeemable for cash. The convertible preferred stock warrants are remeasured to fair value each reporting period based on unobservable Level 3 inputs. The fair value of the warrants and changes in fair value of the warrants for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 were not material. Certain assets and liabilities are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis but are subject to fair value adjustments in certain circumstances, such as when there is evidence of impairment or when a new liability is being established that requires fair value measurement. The Company had no nonrecurring fair value measurements during the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025.
