How long do electric motorcycle batteries last, can they be reused?

As electric motorcycles in Kenya gain traction, attention is shifting to what happens when the batteries powering them, also the most expensive component of the bikes, begin to lose capacity.

Most electric vehicles (EVs), like mobile phones and laptops, utilise lithium-ion batteries. Industry experts estimate that these batteries typically last between three and 10 years, depending on usage, charging habits, and environmental conditions.
