Industries we electrify

Start with the operation.

The right answer for an underground mine is not the right answer for a safari lodge. Every Tembo configuration starts with how your fleet actually works: the terrain, the payload, the distances and the energy on site.

Six industries, one system

Different days. The same system underneath.

Vehicles, charging and energy are specified together for every operation, whether that is a cattle station, a game reserve or a decline mine. What changes is the duty cycle.

Carry and tow across farm terrain.

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.

What matters on site

  1. Payload and towingIndicative payload of roughly 1,225 to 1,550 kg depending on configuration; the 4x4 tows 3 tonnes.
  2. Farm terrainTwin-motor 4x4 for paddocks, tracks and wet crossings.
  3. Energy on the farmShed roofs generate while vehicles sit idle in the heat of the day.

Quiet is the new luxury.

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.

  2. RangeSafari operators report 300+ km on a full charge when the duty cycle fits.
  3. PayloadPublished payload for the EUV conversion is around 500 kg depending on platform and body.

03Infrastructure

Site fleets that cannot wait on fuel.

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.

04Public transport

Clean community mobility.

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.

Gradient, payload, dust and heat.

“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 & order fleets, lower cost to run.

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.

Find your fit

Three answers. One starting point.

Pick your industry, the grid at your site and how far each vehicle drives in a day. You get an indicative vehicle and charging setup to take into the assessment.

Asilia Africa, a B Corp safari operator, is converting its game-drive fleet to Tembo EUVs. Guests hear the bush, not the engine.

Industries, asked.

Can you convert the vehicles we already run?

Yes. The EUV E-Power kit is a mining-spec electric conversion for the utility vehicles your fleet already runs. Four components replace the diesel drivetrain: controller, motor and reducer, battery and charger. Authorised technicians complete the swap at your site in about three days, and exact fitment is confirmed during the site survey.

Which vehicle suits our operation?

It depends on the duty cycle. The Tembo Tusker is a purpose-built electric 4x2 and 4x4 ute for industrial duty. The EUV E-Power conversion keeps the chassis you already run and swaps diesel for CATL LFP. For public transport, the electric jeepney built with Sarao Motors brings clean transport onto the same energy system.

Do the vehicles handle mining spec?

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

What if our site has no grid?

Off-grid systems combine solar generation, battery storage and charging, sized to the fleet and the site, so electrification does not have to wait for a transmission line. Mobile charging can also cover the period before a permanent connection is in place.

How do you size the vehicles and charging?

It starts with a 30-minute duty-cycle call: distances, shift patterns, terrain and where your vehicles sit idle. From that we build an indicative system and model, with vehicles, charging and storage sized to your site and the numbers behind them. We only go to a site survey when the economics and the operation both work.
