ImplementationRoam has designed, developed, and deployed the Roam Air Electric Motorcycle locally in Kenya, focusing on affordability, performance, and safety for the user.
Sub-Saharan Africa relies heavily on boda bodas (motorcycles) for commercial transport, with over 27 million bikes on the road compared to less than 5 million a decade ago. Operators, who spend $4 or KES540 daily on fuel, are negatively impacted by this cost. With Roam Air, urban transportation challenges can be mitigated and CO2 emissions and operating expenses reduced while still providing one million direct jobs to riders.
