Kenya's Roam has launched its new electric motorcycle, the 'Roam Air Gen 3'. Its redesigned 2.2kWh battery charges from 20% to 80% in under 40 minutes, offers up to 80km of range, and comes with a 100,000km warranty. It features IP67 water resistance and built-in GPS tracking, and is aimed at the commercial boda boda (motorcycle taxi) market, supporting loads of up to 250kg.

I really like the idea of building GPS tracking into the battery so you can find it via app even if it's stolen. And on top of that, 98% robot-welded chassis, 300kg loaded and 200,000 vibration test cycles. Not flashy specs — it's all-in on not breaking down. 2.2kW with a 250kg payload — this is genuinely well thought out as a working tool.

Kenya's commercial bikes going electric is a genuinely good trend.

80km range for running a boda-boda all day — probably assumes battery swapping.

250kg payload aimed at boda-boda use — pure practicality.

Running with a full 250kg load, I do wonder if the brakes can handle it.

80% charge in 40 minutes, IP67 waterproofing, built-in GPS — that's stacking on a lot. Amazing.

A 100,000km warranty is intense — this is designed purely with commercial use in mind.

With a 100,000km warranty, commercial operators can genuinely earn back their investment. Smart way to sell it.
