Charging

Two ports, two ways to charge.

Every Ehu motorcycle has two charging ports: a slow port for a home outlet, and a fast port for Ehu stations.

Where to charge

At home

Plug the motorcycle into a 220 V home outlet with the supplied charger, through its slow port. This is everyday charging.

At an Ehu station

Along your route, a quick charge at an Ehu station, through the fast port.

Charging time At home, a full charge takes about 4 hours. At an Ehu station, fast charging takes the battery from 20 to 80% in 30 minutes.

Ehu stations

Ehu Motors was the first company to build a network of charging stations in Benin.

That network is growing: ask us on WhatsApp for the station nearest to you.

What affects range

Between 100 and 120 km per charge. But every day is different:

  • Riding style: hard acceleration and high speed use more energy.
  • Weight: a passenger or cargo takes more energy.
  • The road: dirt roads, cobblestones and hills do too.
  • Maintenance: well-inflated tires and a motorcycle serviced by the workshop go farther.

Your battery

It is built into the motorcycle and belongs to you. Only an Ehu technician opens it, to inspect or repair it.
