Electric mobility company Roam has joined forces with asset financier Mogo to make electric motorcycles a more accessible option for Kenya’s ubiquitous boda boda riders.
Through this partnership, riders can benefit from a financing package that includes the motorcycle, battery, charger, and safety gear. The convenient payment plan features a KES 25,000 deposit followed by daily repayments of KES 682 over 24 months.
Roam’s co-founder and chief commercial officer, Mikael Gånge, emphasizes the company’s commitment to providing innovative solutions for electric mobility. He sees Mogo as a key partner in achieving Roam’s mission of making electric motorcycles accessible to everyone.
This initiative aligns perfectly with Kenya’s national e-mobility program spearheaded by President William Ruto. The ambitious goal is to convert millions of fuel-based motorcycles to electric by 2030. This national push, along with Roam and Mogo’s partnership, positions Kenya at the forefront of the electric mobility revolution in Africa. The shift to electric motorcycles not only benefits riders financially but also contributes to global efforts to promote sustainable transportation and reduce carbon emissions.
