Electric Vehicles in Africa | GEZO by Kemet Automotive

Kemet Automotive

Building an African electric mobility industry

KEMET Automotive designs and assembles electric vehicles adapted to African needs. With the GEZO, our first model, we combine local engineering, controlled production, and a regional ecosystem to accelerate a sustainable, accessible, and industrial-scale electric transition.

GEZO

120 km range (real-world autonomy)

Optimized battery ensures reliable autonomy for African urban mobility.

Reinforced modular chassis

Durable chassis supports heavy loads, safe African road conditions.

Battery swapping & fast charging compatibility

Interchangeable batteries enable fast charging, minimize fleet downtime.

IoT-enabled predictive maintenance

Sensors monitor health, reduce breakdowns, optimize maintenance costs.

GEZO, the future starts here

Kemet Ecosystem

Kemet Automotive builds a local electric mobility ecosystem, covering the entire value chain from design and engineering to manufacturing and deployment.
By integrating technology, industrial know-how, and local expertise, Kemet delivers sustainable mobility solutions adapted to real urban needs.

GEZO

Designed to last. Engineered for Africa

Every KEMET vehicle is designed with a clear objective: combine robust materials, intelligent engineering and purposeful design to deliver reliable, efficient and durable electric mobility adapted to real-world African conditions. From material selection to final assembly, each component is optimized for performance, safety, manufacturability and long-term use.

Key Figures

Kemet Impact

1000 +

tonnes of CO₂ avoided per year by replacing thermal tricycles with electric GEZO vehicles (B2B fleets).

70 %

of women trained in design & engineering programs. A concrete lever for the inclusion of women in engineering and the African automotive industry.

2000 ₊
