Save and charge anywhere there’s electricity.

Welcome to Ehu Motors. The battery and the charger are yours, and our workshop takes care of your motorcycle.

  1. 01 / 02

    A long seat

    For the rider and the passenger, from morning to night.

    The built-in battery

    The battery sits in its own housing, at the heart of the frame. It’s yours; only an Ehu technician opens it, for repairs.

Élégance

A long seat for two and a mid-drive motor: built for taxi work, from morning to night.

The Ehu system

A motorcycle, and everything that keeps it running.

  1. The motorcycle.

    Selected and reinforced for our roads. The battery is built in, and it’s yours.

  2. Charging.

    Two ports: a home outlet at night, our stations by day.

  3. The workshop.

    Our technicians in Cotonou, for maintenance and every repair.

  4. Payment.

    Upfront, or weekly depending on your application, until the day the motorcycle is yours.

The sound of a motorcycle

Listen. Nothing.

An Ehu motorcycle starts without a sound: no coughing engine, no fumes, almost no vibration in your hands. Just the road.

What you are buying

Cheaper to buy does not mean cheaper.

Some electric motorcycles are sold without their battery: the sticker price is lower, but the battery stays rented, and you have to go and get another one every time it runs flat. An Ehu motorcycle comes with its battery and its charger, and both are yours.

Its conditionAlways the same one, and replaced if the battery’s state of health drops below 80% during the warranty periodWhichever one you are handed: no way of knowing its condition
Where to chargeAnywhere with a 220 V outlet, and at our stationsOnly at the operator’s, every time the battery runs flat

After a few months, the difference shows: nothing to rent, no more trips to fetch energy, at the pump or anywhere else, and each kilometer costs you about 6 F when you charge at home.

Work out what you’d save

Petrol or electric

What you’d save every month.

Put in your own figures, your kilometers and what you pay for petrol, and see what the same road would cost you on an Ehu motorcycle.

With an Ehu motorcycle, each kilometer would cost you about 6.3 F charged at home, against about 18 F today with petrol.

For 150 km a day: the overnight charge at home for the first 110 km, then fast charging at an Ehu station for the other 40.

“At home”: all your energy from an outlet, at the kWh price shown. “Both”: the overnight charge at home, up to about 110 km a day, then fast charging at a station for the rest. Maintenance is not included.

The workshop

This is where motorcycles are prepared, inspected and repaired.

Every motorcycle goes through the workshop before it is handed over to you. And when something goes wrong, this is where it comes back, to the technicians who know it.
