Roam’s electric motorcycles and buses tackle Africa’s daily transport demands while cutting emissions and costs: built for scale, sustainability, and local impact.
Roam designs electric motorcycles and buses for emerging markets, starting with Kenya. Our vehicles cut emissions by over 80% and reduce costs for users. To support adoption, we provide charging, fleet software, and after-sales service—built for local needs. Our work spans four key segments:
Roam Air: An electric motorcycle designed in Kenya, specifically for the African terrain and market needs.
Roam Transit: A public transport solution focused on producing electric buses for cities and towns across Kenya and Africa.
Roam Energy and Charging: A segment dedicated to distributing reliable energy solutions and accessible charging infrastructure.
Roam Canopy: A software platform offering intelligent tools for fleet managers, businesses, financiers, and logistics operators.
Across East Africa and the continent at large, motorcycles and buses are not just preferred—they're essential. That’s why Roam is accelerating the shift to affordable, sustainable electric transport. We design, develop, and deploy low-cost, low-emission vehicles for the millions who rely on public transport daily. Our approach is grounded in local expertise: Made in Kenya, for Africa. With deep knowledge of regional terrain, industry dynamics, and spare parts access, Kenyan engineers are uniquely equipped to build the solutions Africa needs. Our philosophy is simple: the best products for Africa must be built in Africa.
Roam has proven that electric transport works, financially and practically, even in the toughest terrains. Our vehicles help customers cut fuel costs while reducing emissions and tackling climate change. But we’re just getting started. As we expand globally, our focus remains on simplifying deployment, improving fleet performance, and lowering costs. In the decade ahead, we’re committed to delivering lasting impact for communities and the planet.
