First on the road: Spenza Limited becomes the first fleet in Kenya to deploy the new MAN TG3 trucks

In Kenya’s transport and logistics sector, Spenza Limited has once again demonstrated that leadership by becoming the first company in the country to take delivery of the new generation MAN ...TG3 trucks from Mobikey Kenya.

The official handover marks more than the arrival of new vehicles. It represents a commitment to operational excellence, higher fleet efficiency, improved driver comfort, enhanced safety, and lower total cost of ownership. It also reflects the confidence that leading fleet operators continue to place in MAN Trucks as a premium commercial vehicle brand.

For Mobikey Kenya, the milestone is equally significant. As the authorized distributor of MAN Trucks in Kenya, the company continues to strengthen its position as a partner that delivers world class transport solutions backed by professional aftersales support, genuine parts availability, technical expertise, and long term customer relationships. The delivery of the first MAN TG3 trucks in Kenya signals the beginning of a new chapter for heavy commercial transport in the country.

The MAN TG3 series represents the latest evolution of MAN’s heavy duty truck platform. Designed for demanding transport operations, the trucks incorporate significant improvements in fuel efficiency, digital connectivity, driver ergonomics, safety systems, and vehicle uptime. The cab has been redesigned to provide a more comfortable working environment for drivers, while advanced assistance systems contribute to safer and more productive fleet operations.Show More

Oniva Motors Is Rethinking Automotive Manufacturing for Africa

For decades, Africa's automotive industry has largely been defined by ...

For decades, Africa's automotive industry has largely been defined by imported vehicles. Whether new or used, most of the continent's transport systems rely on products designed for other markets, other ...roads, and other operating conditions. Oniva Motors is challenging that model.

Rather than adapting foreign vehicles to African realities, Oniva Motors is building vehicles specifically for Africa. The company designs rugged passenger and light utility vehicles engineered for the continent's road conditions, climate, maintenance environments, and transport needs. Its focus is on intercity passenger transport and light commercial mobility, sectors that remain underserved despite growing demand.

What distinguishes Oniva Motors is not only the vehicles themselves but also its manufacturing philosophy. Instead of pursuing billion dollar automotive plants that require enormous production volumes to become viable, the company advocates a network of capital efficient micro factories capable of serving regional markets. This approach aims to lower investment barriers while creating local jobs, strengthening domestic supply chains, and enabling production closer to customers.

Equally notable is the company's product development process. Before finalizing production designs, Oniva Motors conducted extensive field research with transport operators, mechanics, and passengers, incorporating their feedback into vehicle engineering. The result is a design philosophy that begins with how Africans actually move people and goods, rather than assuming that vehicles built for other markets will automatically fit African conditions.

As Africa's population and demand for mobility continue to grow, the debate is shifting from simply importing vehicles to building an indigenous automotive industry. Oniva Motors represents one of a new generation of manufacturers seeking to prove that Africa can move beyond being one of the world's largest automotive markets to becoming one of its producers. If successful, the company could contribute not only to improved transportation but also to industrial development, skills transfer, and greater economic value creation across the continent.Show More
