Going Electric
Affordably.
A new electric motorcycle can cost up to TZS 5 million. Most riders already own one. We convert what they already have, cutting fuel costs by upto 70% without asking anyone to start from scratch.
The price of going electric keeps most riders on petrol.
A new electric motorcycle in Tanzania costs upto TZS 5 million. For a rider earning TZS 20,000 a day, that is not an upgrade. That is another burden. So they stay on petrol, not by choice but because no affordable path to electric has existed.
The result is a structural trap. A boda boda rider running 80km a day spends up to TZS 10,000 on fuel alone, every single day. After loan repayments, maintenance, and food, there is almost nothing left. The motorcycle that gives a rider his independence is the same thing that keeps him financially stuck.
We don't replace the motorcycle. We transfom it.
Converting an existing motorcylce to electric costs less than buying brand new and delivers the same fuel savings. No new purchase. No crippling loan. Just a better engine in a bike you already own.
We handle everything the rider can't, sourcing the technology, navigating the regulation, and building the partnerships that make conversion possible at a price that actually works. The rider brings their motorcycle. We give it a new future.
When the rider wins,
everything else follows.
Tanzania has 1.9 million petrol motorcycles and millions of riders building their lives around them. We are not asking them to start over. We are building the technology, the institutional partnerships, and the infrastructure to meet them where they are. When this works for a rider in Dar es Salaam, it works for riders in Kampala, Nairobi, Kigali. Tanzania is the proof of concept. The continent is the opportunity.
See if it makes sense for you.
