David Njagi is a taxi driver based in Nairobi,Kenya.He recently changed his regular diesel engine taxi for a Chinese-made electric vehicle(EV),a trend being followed by many Kenyans looking to save on the high costs associated with fossil fuels and making transport more sustainable.Niagi decided to use his private vehicle as a self-employed taxi driver for the Bolt(European ridesharing app)to earn an income after he was laid o!from his job as an accountant at the Coca-Cola.His EV is convenient and a cost saver.“I own a Chinese model EV.It is extremely durable.It can travel long distances as the electric charge lasts for several hours.So apart from saving money,I make at least 80 percent more profit than I did on my previous diesel vehicle,”said Njagi.
