With over 65% of the world’s population predicted to live in cities by 2050, sustainable transportation has become a critical priority for cities and their residents. Today, over 500 million two-wheel vehicles are on the road in Asia alone, compounding congestion, pollution, and greenhouse emissions in some of the world’s densest urban centers.
Gogoro was founded in 2011 to address the transportation challenges these cities are facing, with a breakthrough approach to smarter vehicles and electric refueling. Their self-developed technology and unique “Swap & Go” battery swapping service lets two-wheel riders swap out depleted batteries for charged ones in seconds at locations across the city. Their “batteries not included” approach reduces vehicle cost and virtually eliminates concerns of riding range and charging time that have held back mass market adoption of electric vehicles till now. Having proven their solution in their pilot market of Taiwan, Gogoro is now focused on bringing it to the world’s top two-wheel markets of China, India, Indonesia, and across Southeast Asia.
“It sounded like a crazy idea when we first started, a vehicle that didn't need refueling or didn't need recharging. So, we started with that simple idea of swap…and from there we grew.”
- Horace Luke, Founder, Chairman and CEO of Gogoro
