Kenyan electric mobility company Roam has teamed up with Ridewell to open its first showroom in Nairobi. The aim is to expand sales of its electric motorcycles, with its flagship Roam Air on display. The showroom also handles batteries, dedicated spare parts and rider gear such as helmets. It's located along Thika Superhighway, across from the Safari Park Hotel.

Ao Azuma关于EVs · Electric Motorcycles的点评

I take this as proof that EVs are becoming a real-world solution for cities. In distance-predictable urban delivery settings like Nairobi, an electric motorcycle's weaknesses disappear, and quietness plus low fuel cost start to pay off. This isn't sentiment — we've entered a stage where you can talk about it purely through battery-swap-based operational design and cost.

Wait, Roam is a Kenyan company? First time hearing about it.

Yeah exactly, it's an electric mobility company out of Kenya, aiming to electrify the boda-boda taxi scene.

How well the Roam Air lands with African motorcycle-taxi demand is probably going to come down to its price point.

Even with a showroom opening, whether the service network and charging infrastructure can keep up is a whole separate issue.

Opening in partnership with Ridewell, they're really picking up the pace with this partner strategy.

An electric bike showroom opening in Africa, that feels like a pretty symbolic step forward.
