Car & General Trading Limited, a pioneer of 3-wheelers in East Africa, has launched two new electric 3-wheelers, the Apé E-City FX Max and Apé E-Xtra FX Max, in Mombasa, Kenya. These vehicles feature advanced battery technology, improved driving range, and superior Italian design.

If you have ever been to Mombasa , Kenya , and other towns in the coastal regions, such as Malindi, Watamu, Kilifi, and Diani, you may have noticed that 3-wheelers are an integral part of the transport ecosystem in the coastal region. Currently, Mombasa on its own has close to 15,000 passenger 3-wheeler units on the road with internal combustion engines, making it a key transport mode for the region.

Car & General pioneered the use of 3-wheelers as taxis in East Africa. For its part, Piaggio Vehicles Pvt Ltd is a subsidiary of the Italian Piaggio Group and India’s leading manufacturer of small commercial vehicles, as well as pioneers in the 3-wheeler electric mobility. The new Apé FX Max range comes with advanced battery performance resulting in a longer run, enhanced earnings, and effective cost of ownership. The vehicles also have a reserve range of up to 5 kilometers to combat range anxiety. Bigger tires of 12” give drivers a better ride & handling experience, and control over rough, uneven road conditions making the journey safer as well as accessible to remote destinations.

The electric 3-wheelers were unveiled by David Chesoni, the Managing Director of Car & General, and Hon Mohamed Ali Osman, the CECM – Tourism, Trade and Culture of the County Government of Mombasa.Speaking at the launch, David Chesoni said, “Car & General is committed to its mantra of making our customers smile in every street, in every town with quality products and after-sales services.
