TVS Motor Company will launch its iQube electric scooter in Kenya on August 8, marking the Indian manufacturer’s first entry into Africa’s electric two-wheeler market.
The scooter will be sold in two variants offering real-world ranges of 75 km and 115 km per charge, with a top speed of up to 82 km/h.
TVS says users could save about KSh 47,000 annually in energy and maintenance costs compared with a 125cc petrol scooter, with Car & General $CGEN handling sales and after-sales support.
