In a bid to promote greener transportation and pave the way for investment in the electric vehicle industry, Meta Electric, a business unit of Meta Group Africa has today launched Kenya’s first Electric service delivery vans.
The BYD T3 Electric Vans (EVs) are manufactured by Build Your Dreams (BYD), the largest Chinese supplier of rechargeable batteries in the world.
Meta Electric says these Electric vans come with an AC charger (8 hours charging time) and an optional DC charger (1.5 hours) and has a range of 300km, or 250km at full capacity. The engine is silent with exceptionally high torque meaning the vehicle moves from stationary almost instantly, even with heavy loads in the back of the vehicle.
