Tembo e-LV

04/09/2026

Great to see the Sarao x Tembo electric jeepney’s 760 km Las Piñas to Albay round trip featured by Top Gear Philippines. 🇵🇭

The journey took the vehicle beyond the city, across expressways, provincial roads, steep climbs, winding routes and rough surfaces, bringing wider attention to what an electric jeepney can already do.

Thank you to Top Gear Philippines for sharing the story.

A true showcase of what the electrified ‘King of the Road’ can do. Read more in the comments.

A closer look at the Sarao x Tembo Electric Jeepney stress test. 🇵🇭⚡

Over approximately 760 km from Las Piñas City through Naga City to Albay and back, the Electric Jeepney was tested across expressways, provincial roads, sustained climbs, winding sections, rough surfaces and changing traffic conditions.

A practical test of efficiency, charging and longer-distance operation under real Philippine road conditions.

An icon, electrified. 🇵🇭⚡

The Tembo Electric Jeepney, co-developed with Sarao Motors, is on display at APV Expo 2026, bringing heritage, Technology and sustainability to Philippines

The strong interest from transport operators, government representatives, industry partners and media reflects a shared ambition: cleaner public transport built around the character and practicality of the Filipino jeepney.

Building great electric vehicles is only part of the equation.

Long-term success depends on the ability to support them where customers operate.

Chris J. Mallios shares his perspective on why local industrial support may become one of the defining competitive advantages.

A note on where the electric utility-vehicle market may actually be decided.

11/07/2026

Tembo is named after elephants.

The humble giants who never roar. Yet they cross the savanna, and the ground trembles.

That philosophy led us to the Tusker.

Engineered for the people who do the work because the work is theirs to do, and do it properly because doing it any other way simply isn't in them. Who excel for excellence itself, and craft for the craft. Who never announce, and deliver without needing to be seen. With resilience, and a cadence that doesn't break.
How do you honour people like that, other than in the craft itself?

Torque without exhaust. Power without vibration. A workhorse that doesn't shout about being one.

Strength without the noise.

Conversion is a vote of confidence in the original vehicle.

If a platform has already proved itself in mines, farms, councils, utilities, and remote worksites, the answer may not be to replace it completely.

It may be to keep what already works, the chassis, the capability, the service familiarity, and the operational acceptance, and change the one part that no longer fits the future: the drivetrain.

That is where the Tembo EUV E-Power Kit comes in.

Built around a 156 kW electric motor ⚡, 330 Nm peak torque 💪, and a 77 kWh LFP battery system 🔋 with CCS2 fast charging 🔌, it brings proven electric technology to platforms that have already earned their place in the field.

Today, Tembo conversion vehicles operate in some of the world's most demanding environments — from African safaris and Asian jungles to the Australian outback.

Electric conversion is not about giving an old vehicle a second chance.

It is about recognising that the original platform was right for the job in the first place.

The best engineering is not always replaced.

Sometimes, it evolves.

Single Cab or Dual Cab?

In industrial fleets, configuration is not a preference.
It is a productivity decision.

A work vehicle has to match the way the site operates — payload, tray space, tools, crew movement, accessories and charging rhythm all matter.

That’s why the Tembo Tusker is available in both Single Cab and Dual Cab configurations.

Choose Single Cab when the job needs maximum tray practicality, payload flexibility and equipment carrying capacity.

Choose Dual Cab when the job needs crew transport, tools and site mobility in one vehicle.

⚡ Up to 510 km range*
⚡ 330 Nm torque
⚡ Over 1 tonne payload*
⚡ Up to 12× lower operating cost at fleet scale

One electric platform.
Two working configurations.

Built around the task — not the other way around.

Industrial strength.
Electric efficiency. ⚡

Specifications shown reflect configurable builds based on operational requirements.

The best fleet technology doesn’t add complexity. It removes it. ⚖️

That’s the premise behind the Tembo e-LV Tusker.

Electric drivetrains are mechanically simpler by nature — fewer moving parts, less servicing complexity, and no exposure to fuel price volatility. Operating costs become easier to predict.

But simplicity without capability solves nothing.

The Tusker delivers both:

→ Up to 510 km range* for demanding duty cycles
→ 330 Nm torque where working performance matters
→ Over 1 tonne payload* for real operational loads
→ Built for demanding environments 🔋

Less time in maintenance bays. More time in operation.

Lower operating costs. Reduced downtime. Charging that fits modern fleet operations. Capability without compromise.
It is a fleet platform built around reliability, capability, and operational control — for operators who need equipment that performs every day.

Industrial strength. Electric efficiency. ⚡

*Specifications reflect configurable builds based on operational requirements.
