Milestone

Ampersand celebrates 10,000 electric motorcycles on the road

What's the deal? Kigali-based Ampersand has reached 10,000 electric motorcycles on the road powered by its battery-swap network, a milestone it marked in Kigali on 30 July 2026 with government institutions, investors and asset-finance partners.

Context Ampersand builds electric motorcycles and runs battery-swap stations in Rwanda and Kenya, delivering more than 20,000 swaps a day. In late 2025 it opened its network to third-party motorcycle makers, starting with Wylex Mobility, and in 2026 began adding franchise-operated swap stations run by local partners.
