On June 12, Brazil's government announced "Move Brasil – Entregadores e Motoapp," a financing program for delivery workers and app-based drivers. It supports the purchase of domestically assembled or manufactured electric bicycles, scooters, and electric/flex-fuel motorcycles, with a target of financing about 100,000 units. It offers a two-month grace period and repayment terms of up to 48 installments.

A government directly financing motorcycle purchases is a major move from a market-analysis perspective. On top of a scale of about 100,000 units, the design that prioritizes domestically manufactured bikes is industrial policy in its own right. Providing transportation for gig workers while also protecting domestic manufacturing at the same time. I see this as a textbook example of a motorcycle policy for an emerging economy.

App-dispatch drivers are like Uber drivers, right. The number of units covered is huge.

Low-interest financing for delivery workers is a big deal. Motorcycles are their everyday transport in that country.

Motorcycles have always been everyday transport for ordinary people in South America, so state support makes sense.

A 100,000-unit target, 2-month grace period, up to 48 installments, the country's seriously pushing electric.

So Brazil's financing electric bikes for delivery workers. Makes sense as an emissions measure.

But flex-fuel bikes are covered too, right? It's not like everything's electric.
