In a decisive move to ensure the quality and reliability of electric vehicles (EVs) in the country, the Kenya Bureau of Standards (KEBS) has officially announced a ban on the importation of used electric vehicles with a battery life below 80%. This new regulation is part of Kenya’s broader strategy to embrace sustainable and environmentally friendly transportation options while maintaining high safety and performance standards for vehicles on Kenyan roads.
The ban aligns with Kenya’s commitment to environmental conservation and its goals for reducing carbon emissions in the transport sector. By setting a minimum battery life threshold, KEBS aims to guarantee that imported used electric vehicles are durable, reliable, and contribute positively to the country’s green mobility agenda.
For more detailed information on this development and its implications for importers and consumers in Kenya, please refer to the official KEBS announcements and guidelines.
