Kenya is still lagging behind in the adoption of electric vehicles (EVs), even as the world continues to move away from traditional fuel cars.
This, however, is not to say that there have not been strides made in the electrification of automobiles.
In fact, a quick spot check shows that a considerable number of tuk-tuks, buses, and motorcycles have gone electric in Kenya.
According to Tom Courtright, a research director at Africa E-Mobility Alliance, these aforementioned units have found a favourable market in Kenya, with bodaboda riders and small businesses adopting them as cost-effective capital to further their enterprises.
