Motorcycle taxis (known as “motos” or “boda bodas”) are an essential and popular form of transportation in East Africa’s increasingly congested cities where an estimated 5 million bodas carry 100 million passengers a day, a distance equivalent to a round trip journey to the sun. All of these trips contribute to air pollution.Additionally, drivers face volatile and rising fuel prices that result in low profits and uncertainty.
Using technology adapted for the local marketand the right business model to achieve scale, our vehicles deliver superior driving performance,emit 75% less carbon than petrol motorcycles with zero tailpipe emissionsand put over $500 a year back into drivers' pockets.
