Take the diesel out.
Keep the duty cycle.
Founded in the Netherlands in 1969 and operating today from Australia to the rest of the world, Tembo powers working fleets through electric vehicles, conversion kits and the solutions that keep them moving around the clock.
The Tembo Tusker is a purpose-built electric utility vehicle that combines proven capability with next-generation electric performance.

Held constant: 260 operating days (5 a week), 12 L/100km diesel vs 23 kWh/100km electric, maintenance $0.18 to $0.06/km, $20k capex premium per vehicle. Indicative only.
Every litre carries freight, storage, ventilation, servicing and compliance behind it. Electrification does not just swap the engine. It moves the fleet onto energy your operation controls.

Environmental sustainability has been an important consideration in agriculture for a long time. Adopting an electrified fleet for your light utility vehicle needs is a natural and important step in furthering this commitment, whilst significantly reducing energy and maintenance costs. Adopting the Tembo EUV ensures you can carry or tow a wide variety of payloads on a wide range of agricultural terrain.

Our EUVs will ensure that minimal noise is made when it’s all about capturing the best photo of a wild animal on a safari trip. Based on a reliable chassis, Tembo’s 4x4 EUV can handle an exceptionally wide range of off-road terrain, be it in the savanna, desert or mountain.

EV fleets can transform the infrastructure industry by reducing costs, meeting environmental standards, supporting energy grid modernisation, and enhancing operational efficiency. By integrating our EVs into their operations, companies large and small get a reliable workhorse built for the infrastructure sector. With zero emissions, lower running costs, and rugged performance, our EVs help companies to deliver projects efficiently while meeting modern sustainability and compliance standards.

An effective public transport system is a necessity for our cities’ basic functioning and sustainability. Electrifying its vehicles is crucial to ensure that the sustainability benefits are fully realised, that maintenance and operating costs to the taxpayer and/or fleet owner are reduced, and that public health is improved through better air quality.

“Mining spec” is the most stringent standard applied to our vehicles given the gradient, payload, and particle and weather conditions commonly found in mines. Our EUV conversions can withstand the most demanding conditions in an underground mine while improving health & safety for workers and decreasing your total cost of ownership.

Law and order vehicles need to respond to the call of duty reliably. Now they can also do so sustainably and at a lower cost to the taxpayer given lower energy and maintenance costs for our Tembo EUV vs. diesel/petrol vehicles. Based on a reliable frame and chassis, and with fewer drivetrain components, reliability is maximised and maintenance minimised.

Position, state of charge, energy use and fault codes stream from every Tembo vehicle and charger into one console. Operators watch the shift as it runs and replay it afterwards.
Interactive demo of the Fleet Console. The vehicles and data are simulated on real roads around Newman, Western Australia, and do not represent any Tembo customer’s operations. Select a vehicle, filter the fleet, or replay a shift.
Demonstrations for the Naga City Council and talks with Bicol Region transport cooperatives move the Sarao–Tembo electric jeepney programme forward.
