KATHMANDU: Yadea is accelerating its global expansion as rising fuel prices and growing EV demand boost sales of electric scooters and motorcycles in overseas markets.
The company said its overseas sales are currently tracking around 70 percent higher than 2025, mainly driven by strong demand in Southeast Asia and South America following the recent rise in oil prices.
Yadea is now expanding into Europe and plans to establish a factory in Hungary to support growing regional demand and reduce tariff-related costs. The company is targeting major cities including London and Paris for market expansion.
The Chinese company aims to sell 450,000 units overseas in 2026, up from 310,000 units previously. It also plans to add up to 10,000 international sales points next year.
Founded in 1997, Yadea has already sold around 100 million electric two-wheelers globally and currently operates factories in China, Vietnam, Indonesia, Thailand, Turkey, Brazil, and Mexico.
Industry data shows electric models accounted for around 15 percent of the global two-wheeler market last year, highlighting strong future growth potential for the segment, writes FT.
Kuzu Nepal Pvt. Ltd. is the official authorized distributor of Yadea electric vehicles in Nepal. The brand has established itself as one of the leading players in Nepal’s electric two-wheeler market with a strong presence in the EV scooter segment.
