Bako Motors is a Tunisian startup electric car manufacturer, founded in 2021 and based in Tunis, Tunisia.[1][2][3][4][5] Company headquarters are registered in Luxembourg. Production facilities are in Ben Arous/Tunisia and Riyadh/Saudi-Arabia. Founder and CEO is Boubaker Siala; COO is Khaled Habaieb. Bako's small vehicles are -mostly- intended for the African market. The cars are far cheaper than comparable electric mini-cars from e.g. the US.
Bako Motors began making three-wheeled cargo vehicles in 2021 (such as the Bako B1 tricycle), but has since moved to four-wheeled models. Currently the firm produces two different models. The B-Van, which can carry 400 kilograms (882 pounds) of cargo and has a 100 to 300-kilometer (62 to 186 mile) range, is designed for logistics and last-mile delivery. The other is the Bee, a tiny 2-seat car with a 70 to 120-kilometer (44 to 75 mile) range and a max speed of 45 kilometers per hour (27 mph).
