Since BasiGo was founded, we committed to our electric buses being locally manufactured in Kenya. Today, we are proud to share that we have completed assembly of our first locally built E9 Kubwa E-Buses with our partners at Kenya Vehicle Manufacturers!

These E-Buses arrived as parts from our OEM partner, CHTC MOTOR CO., LTD. They were built with weeks of dedication and attention to detail by the BasiGo and KVM manufacturing teams.

BasiGo and KVM are collaborating to launch Kenya’s first high-volume E-Bus assembly line. This dedicated assembly line will deliver 1000 high-quality, locally assembled electric buses to Kenyan bus operators in the next 3 years, creating 300 green manufacturing jobs.

Kenya has the potential to be a leader in the manufacturing/assembly of modern EV’s. BasiGo and KVM are making that a reality, and each bus we produce here will proudly bear the mark #BuiltInKenya.
