Gogoro Philippines, the frontrunner in electric scooters and battery-swapping technology, is set to make its high-tech rides accessible to a wider Filipino audience through prepaid plans. Since its December 2023 launch, Gogoro has established itself as a premium brand, lauded for its advanced features and quality. Initially targeting high-income demographics, they’re now expanding to cater to the growing interest from other market segments.

To achieve broader accessibility, Gogoro Philippines is introducing prepaid energy plans that eliminate lock-in periods. This provides flexibility for riders who don’t want long-term commitments. Additionally, they plan to introduce more affordable financing options in Q2 2024, followed by the launch of budget-friendly scooter models in Q3.

“We hear you and we will soon respond to this clamor as we complete the other critical components of the ecosystem. We’re finding the price to speak for your budget,” according to Bernie Llamzon, President and CEO of Gogoro Philippines.

Why Filipinos Choose Gogoro?

Customers appreciate Gogoro’s smart features, riding comfort, and convenient battery-swapping system, a stark contrast to traditional gasoline-powered scooters.

Gogoro prioritizes uninterrupted rides by expanding its network of GoStations. These stations offer convenient battery swapping, ensuring riders never run out of power. From only five GoStations at the end of 2023, Gogoro has grown its network to 14 within Metro Manila, with plans for seven more before Q2 ends, bringing the total to over 21.

The mobility company’s vision extends beyond Metro Manila. They plan to establish a presence in key cities and towns across North and Central Luzon, the Visayas, and Mindanao. This aligns with their commitment to making electric mobility a nationwide reality for Filipinos.

A Partnership for Sustainable Urban Solutions

Gogoro Philippines, a collaboration between Globe’s 917Ventures Inc., Ayala Corporation, and Taiwan’s Gogoro, champions sustainable urban mobility through cutting-edge technology. As their expansion initiatives gain momentum, Gogoro is poised to become a dominant force in the Philippine electric vehicle landscape.
