Zbee RS, Cargo & Cargo+ Pre-Order
We have been gearing up to launch our Zbee RS, Cargo and Cargo+ for the past few months, as well as our ridesharing platform Scooter.
With these models looking to launch in South Africa later in the year, we have been working on fine-tuning our distribution network and identifying various places to have our charging network. For those who are looking to purchase our vehicles and joining our platform as driver-partners, we have also been working on ways of ensuring that current policies do not prevent you from operating. We will be looking to launch the Zbee RS and Zbee Cargo in later parts of 2018. As for the price of our vehicles, this too will be disclosed in due time. We are working with other stakeholders in the industry who believe in our product and can help in making our electric vehicles affordable.
​
The Zbee is just the beginning for us and we look to improve on a number of components of the vehicle which will lead the change in transportation in Africa.
For all information inquiries regarding the Zbee and our ride-sharing platform, contact admin@greenscooterza.com.

JOHANNESBURG — South Africa is truly a land of possibilities when you take a listen to Fezile Dhlamini’s story.

After securing some 20 vehicles from Sweden, Dhlamini plans to pilot his business, dubbed ‘Green Scooter’, in September this year in Johannesburg. Take a listen to this truly inspiring story of a young man who has some serious chutzpah.
