01How it works

Converted on site. Not shipped overseas.

  1. 01

    Survey the platform

    Confirm chassis, duty cycle, payload and charging. Spec the kit to the work, not a brochure average.

  2. 02

    Convert on site

    Diesel out, E-Power kit in. Authorised technicians complete the swap at your site.

  3. 03

    Commission and train

    Hand-over, driver familiarisation and local support so the fleet goes back to work, quieter and cheaper to run.

02Inside the conversion

Four components replace the diesel drivetrain: controller, motor and reducer, battery and charger.

Quiet is the new luxury.

No engine roar. No fumes. Guests hear the bush. Operators report the conversion pays for itself in about 18 months, with roughly half the running cost of diesel.

Asilia

Asilia Africa, a B Corp sustainability leader, has begun converting. Other East African operators are following.

01

18-month return

Through major reductions in fuel, oil changes and mechanical downtime.

02

50% lower running costs

Compared with diesel fleets: fewer moving parts and no fuel bill.

03

300+ km range*

Enough for full-day operations in remote terrain when sized to the duty cycle.

04

A competitive edge

Conscious travellers prefer operators who lead with zero-emission fleets.

03Where it works

Built for duty, not showrooms.

Safari and tourism

Safari & tourism

Silent game drives. Guests hear the bush, not the engine. Proven with Asilia Africa.

Mining

Mining

Mining-spec duty: gradient, payload, dust and heat. Less ventilation load underground.

Agriculture

Agriculture

Carry and tow across farm terrain without the diesel supply chain.

Defence and NGO

Defence & NGO

Trusted chassis, fewer drivetrain parts, lower energy cost for missions that cannot wait.

04Why fleets convert

Keep the platform you already run

Parts, body shops and driver familiarity stay. Only the heart of the vehicle changes.

Cut fuel and servicing

No oil changes, far fewer moving parts, electricity you can forecast instead of diesel you haul.

Quieter for crews and guests

Near-silent drives for safari, and crews who can talk without shouting over an engine.

Supported where you operate

Authorised partners across Africa and beyond. Built for the continent, supported on it.

05Questions

Frequently asked.

What platforms can you convert?

The E-Power kit is model agnostic. It is engineered to fit proven utility 4x4 and ute platforms, whatever the make. Exact fitment depends on chassis generation and body, and we confirm it during the site survey.

How long does a conversion take?

Typical on-site conversions complete in about 72 hours (three working days). That keeps vehicles in the region instead of shipping them out for months.

What range should we plan for?

Safari operators report 300+ km on a full charge when the duty cycle fits. Real range moves with payload, terrain, speed and ambient heat. We size the pack and charging against your worst day, not your average one.

What is in the battery system?

A CATL lithium iron phosphate system totalling 77 kWh across front and rear packs, with CCS2 charging. LFP is chosen for thermal stability in sustained heat rather than peak laboratory numbers.

Do we lose payload?

Published payload for the EUV conversion is around 500 kg depending on platform and body. Confirm the figure for your chassis before you commit it to a tender or safari schedule.

Who supports the fleet after conversion?

Tembo works through authorised service partners so fleets get local expertise. Asilia and other East African operators already run converted vehicles on this model.
