I have been following the electric motorcycle space in Kenya for over 6 years now. In that time, several startups have joined the sector, working to help transition this prominent sector to electric. Hundreds of thousands of internal combustion engine motorcycles are sold each year in Kenya. These continue to add enormous amounts of emissions to the contribution from the transport sector.
All these electric motorcycle startups have been investing heavily in research and development, conducting several pilot programs, and then releasing some improved versions of their motorcycles with each iteration. I have been privileged to have visited their assembly plants and offices to get a unique view of this sector. That means I get to see some of these bikes before they hit the roads.
