IRVINE, CA, UNITED STATES, May 11, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Bingo Technologies, a mobility tech pioneer founded by the creator of mophie^®, today introduced the Bingo E2 and announced the official launch of pre-orders for this first-of-its-kind electric vehicle (EV) purpose-built for the high-demand ride-hailing and delivery markets of emerging markets, with first deployments in Kenya and South Africa.

The Bingo E2 is designed to address the critical infrastructure and capital barriers facing drivers in major hubs like Nairobi. With over 500,000 daily rides in Nairobi alone, the market has long lacked an affordable, high-uptime EV. The E2 addresses this with a world-first ‘dual-battery system’ that combines a fixed 31 kWh primary battery for long-range efficiency with a 13 kWh secondary system of 4 swappable modules that can be exchanged in under two minutes. This "never-stop" architecture eliminates range anxiety and ensures that drivers spend their time earning rather than charging.

A Connected Fleet Platform for Global Buyers and Operators
Beyond the vehicle itself, Bingo Technologies is launching a comprehensive platform that enable fleet owners worldwide to purchase and deploy the E2 through Bingo-vetted operators. Through the ‘Cloud Fleet OS’ platform, owners can purchase an E2, select their fleet operator, and track vehicle status, operator performance, and lease revenue in real-time from their smartphone. More than 7,500 devices have already been connected to the platform and managed by operators across multiple countries, with the company backed by Trucks VC, Delta 40, and a syndicate of family offices.

“We aren't just building a car; we are building an economic engine for the next generation of the African middle class,” said Daniel Huang, Founder & CEO of Bingo Technologies. “At mophie, we solved power for the individual; at Bingo, we are solving power and mobility for the world’s fastest-growing economies. The E2 is designed to be the most profitable tool a driver can own, reducing energy costs by up to 90% compared to petrol and dramatically increasing drivers take-home pay from day one.”

“For decades, fleet investing in emerging markets has been locked behind institutional capital and on-the-ground complexity,” Huang added. “Cloud Fleet OS changes that. Fleet owners anywhere in the world can now deploy commercial vehicles through vetted local operators and run a real fleet business from their phone — with full operational visibility into the assets they own.”
