Electric vehicles are here! Is Kenya ready for the revolution?

[@calebmaangi]

I love the content on this channel. In a world where the news is often dominated by negativity, it's refreshing to have a source of positive news. Thank you, Chamsmedia. I believe that eMobility is the next big thing, and within five years, we will be at an advanced stage. I appreciate how the stakeholders have also considered improving service delivery. The buses look very comfortable, and this will likely reduce traffic on our roads as more people will opt to use them.

[@joseO12326]

So if people use them how does that reduce traffic 😂

[@calebmaangi]

@@joseO12326 Most of these buses can carry 33 passengers or more, meaning they consolidate many people into fewer vehicles. This is more efficient than private cars, which usually transport fewer people yet take up a lot of space on the roads. With improved service delivery, comfortable seats, and decorum in public transport, more people may opt to use them, thus reducing traffic. My thoughts. What do you think?

[@daveparko3519]

Interesting video Alex. In 10 yrs kenya will be about 50% electric vehicle. Kenya is a tech hub. Am proud to be a kenyan.

Bonjour je peux avoir les descriptions et les modalités d'acquisition de la moto je suis à Kinshasa

Tutapambana na hali yetu kama kawaida😎🇰🇪👍😂

The next big issue will be tackling how we generate electricity simply moving from thermal generators to clean renewable energy that we use for charging the electric vehicles.

[@philiponkui8650]

in which cave do you live? kenya is almost 90 % on green renewable energy

[@alexkibe4179]

​@@philiponkui8650actually 92%

[@doiturself..g.o.a.t3508]

Who told you geo thermal is not green energy illiteracy at its peak

[@kanyikenya5704]

Where can I get the e bee bike & at how much?

[@jzk2020]

I love the e-boda bodas. I always look for them when I need to go somewhere, they are more comfortable than the normal motor bikes, especially for tall people.

[@drivafy]

I live in Norway and I make content on electric mobility. 20 percent of all the vehicles in Norway are electric

[@PrinceClay-d6j]

Chamsmedia and you are doing great work

[@marehemudanielarapmoi6424]

Good for you. Here's some flowers for your efforts. 🌼 🌸

[@kephamarando2370]

Why is it only 20% and not more

[@orastojames7468]

I support fully this E mobility to our country, alow many companies to come, we do not only need them to just sell but make and assemble them here in Kenya🇰🇪. Nice 👍 content.

[@spencer.3472]

First viewer and comment,keep up the good work.

[@mosesmunyoki]

I think in the fullness of the time Kenya will transform completely. I am truly embraced by the technological advancement we are taking as a country. Very soon these electric bikes will be all over the country.

[@dannyosolo2752]

Great stuff and info Alex....as Murkomen states...Kenya should be ready for the eletrical revolution

[@KFMEDIA_07]

the bus should be fitted with powerful solar panels on the top so that it charges as it travels during the day.

[@KaranjaCyrus]

Good idea

[@mosesmunyoki]

I am proud to be Kenyan. See how innovative we can be😂

[@alexkibe4179]

Wow. I hope this moves quick. If we stop relying on fuel! What a world we will be in

[@adamf.585]

We need some info. about Uganda Kiira Vehicles

[@Tortoise_kenya]

How much is the bicycle/ two wheeler?

[@KinyuaWaPiano]

What the price for motorcycle

[@abelmrabu5493]

Distribution should be made to all counties

[@fredrickokoth1578]

They have not mentioned prices of motorbikes

[@titus254]

Good piece

[@martinndaguatha5538]

Excellent, be bringing EV content regularly.

Kazi safi sana

[@JohnKinyanjui-vx9ws]

[@Beeline_N]

That 0% import duty for evs is something we should also adopt. Even if it's temporary

[@KaranjaCyrus]

We don’t need to import we need to manufacture our own, till when are we gonna import cars

[@Beeline_N]

@@KaranjaCyrus China already has monopoly on batteries. Even if we manufacture, we have to import the materials. Meaning they will control our prices while keeping their own cheaper. Unless we mine our own lithium, cobalt, aluminium etc we can't be competitive in manufacturing.

[@derrickmutuma7185]

The bicycles are nowhere near cheap.

[@philiponkui8650]

the thing is maintenance. i have.lived in china and i have used my e bike for 4 years and the only cost i have incurred is charging which is 50 percent cheaper than petrol ones.

[@mikeodiwuor3142]

Lithium battery tend to be flammable

[@OsmanK699]

So is petrol. Highly flammable

[@cromwellrocks4514]

We need Asian edition

[@mosessimba4992]

My dear Kenyan have different perspective.. If you are riding a bike means you poor unlike majuu British prime Minister used to go to work riding a bike.. Africans we need to wake up

[@jacobodoyo707]

A very expensive revolution. The amount diesel used to mine, process lithium to its finished product is unthinkable. Don't even get me started with the number of times you will have to charge the car in a 300 KM drive. The solution for me is the electric commuter train and high-speed intercity trains not this non-starter.

[@janendegwa5462]

I would not support those motor bicycles how many kiambu locals have you employed in tilisi if you're not going to employ our people move your factories out,stop pollution of our waters underground waters for nothing, let us use our land to food production

[@vand922]

All Kenyans are equal. This is how you end up voting wrong people to represent you in government. Acha ukabila

[@janendegwa5462]

@@vand922 There's nothing like ukabila that's how it is all over the world if you take a factory to a village like limuru your supposed to respect the local community and employ them , even in America if you're an investor they send you to rural communities to go change that community by giving them jobs besides anyway why pollute underground waters and rivers and as soils of the only viable agricultural lands and people are hungry every where in Kenya , I stand by what I believe support locals

[@janendegwa5462]

@@vand922 plus anyway some of the people who have been transported to work in Muranga have done awfythings like the one who raped and murdered an 8 year old child and another one muderes a two year old child and voting is about interests anyway and no one can vote for someone responsible for destroying their livelihoods

[@kevinakivaga7198]

E-boda boda

[@TheMrgoodmanners]

be careful with those chinese EVs, they tend to light up like a torch.

[@itgamingke]

China sells electric buses to Canada too , they make quality buses.

[@listanthenya5392]

China has manufactured and used plus sold electric vehicles to many countries abroad. I live in a country which imports from China and many people here use electric bikes and vehicles from China.
