Kenya just flipped the switch on affordable e-mobility. In a bold move, Roam and Fortune Credit have launched the country’s first financing program for electric motorcycles, opening the throttle for thousands of riders and small businesses to own the latest Roam Air Gen 2 bikes.

The announcement went public on Wednesday, and it’s already making waves in the transport sector.

Financing program for electric motorcycles breaks barriers

For years, high upfront costs kept electric motorcycles out of reach for many Kenyans. That’s over.

The new Roam, Fortune Credit financing program lets riders take home a Roam Air Gen 2 with just a KES 25,000 deposit, then pay KES 527 per day for 24 months, ownership of both the bike and battery included.

Janet Kuteli, CEO of Fortune Credit, declared, “Through Fortune Credit, you can now own your Roam Air from as low as 527 Kenya shillings daily.”

The deal is sweetened with insurance, Hospicash health cover, and full access to Roam’s charging network, including home charging and Roam Hubs.

This isn’t just about financing. It’s about removing the cash-only barrier that’s held back e-mobility adoption.

“This isn’t just about financing bikes; it’s about breaking barriers,” said Roam’s Regional Sales Operations Manager Habib Lukaya.

Electric motorcycles financing program spurs local innovation

The financing program centres on the Roam Air Gen 2, a next-generation electric motorcycle with over 40 rider-driven upgrades.

Riders get a robust 240 kg frame, dual battery range up to 160 km, improved waterproofing, safer battery locks, and enhanced comfort for long rides.

Plus, 36% of its parts are locally manufactured, surpassing Kenya’s legal requirements and boosting local jobs.

Fortune Credit’s program is designed for both individual riders and businesses. With an initial rollout of over 600 bikes, it is one of Kenya’s largest electric fleet deals to date.

The package also bundles insurance and health coverage, supporting long-term resilience for riders.

GreenMax Capital Group’s David Ekabouma described the initiative as “a model for how blended finance can unlock clean, inclusive tech in emerging markets.”

The Green for Access Fund supports the program, which shares risk and enables Fortune Credit to offer accessible loans.

Electric motorcycles financing program powers clean transport

The Roam, Fortune Credit financing program for electric motorcycles is set to accelerate Kenya’s shift to clean, affordable transport.

Riders and small businesses can now enjoy the lower running costs, quiet rides, and zero emissions of electric motorcycles, with ownership finally within reach.

“We build the best looking, best performing electric bike for Africa right here in Kenya. And we are coming together because we believe the future of Africa is electric,” said Roam’s spokesperson.

Roam and Fortune Credit are powering a new era for Kenya’s riders, one in which clean mobility is accessible, practical, and built for growth.
