[Kigali, Rwanda] – Spiro, Africa’s largest EV company, is thrilled to announce its latest partnership with Jali, which will accelerate the adoption of sustainable mobility solutions in Rwanda and cement Spiro's commitment to fostering a Pan-African smart energy ecosystem.
Building on previous collaborations with Bboxx in Rwanda, and following in the footsteps of recent successful partnerships with Mogo and Watu in Kenya, Spiro continues to weave a network of strategic alliances across the continent. These partnerships are pivotal in Spiro’s mission to enhance access to clean energy and sustainable transportation.
A Partnership for Progress
The union with Jali, renowned for its robust asset financing solutions, signifies a leap forward in making EV technology accessible to a broader segment of the Rwandan population.
Extending the Ecosystem
This partnership aligns with Spiro's overarching strategy to develop a comprehensive Pan-African smart energy ecosystem. By integrating cutting-edge technology with practical financial solutions, Spiro and its partners are setting new benchmarks for sustainability and innovation in Africa.
Spiro offers riders a cheaper, smarter, and cleaner way to travel by allowing them to swap batteries in under a minute before continuing with their journeys. There's no waiting for batteries to charge up at home, and none of the noise and smell of an old ICE bike.
With 12,000 electric motorbikes in Benin, Togo, Rwanda and Kenya, Spiro is increasing its foothold across Africa, and recently celebrated its 7 millionth battery swap.
Technological Milestones Ahead
Looking forward, Spiro is set to introduce a series of technological innovations across Africa, developed in house by a dedicated tech team in Pune, India. March will see the launch of the first automatic swap stations in Rwanda, a development that promises to revolutionize the EV market by offering unparalleled convenience for EV users. Additionally, the eagerly anticipated Spiro app, featuring multi-service integration, geolocation, and seamless payment options, is slated for release, marking a significant advancement in Spiro’s tech-driven approach to mobility.
A Future Forged Together
"Spiro's journey is one of collaboration and innovation," stated Kaushik Burman, CEO of Spiro. "Our partnership with Jali, building upon our engagements with Bboxx, Mogo, and Watu, exemplifies our commitment to crafting a sustainable future for Africa. Together, we are promoting electric mobility and pioneering a new era of environmental responsibility and technological empowerment."
Jali Finance ltd's CEO, Felix Nkudimana says, "We at Jali Finance are thrilled to have sealed a partnership with SPIRO, Africa's foremost electric motorcycle supplier.
