Published on: Jun 13, 2024
Terpel plans to expand to 14 GoStations by the end of the year and then to other Colombian cities.
Leading Colombian mobility player Terpel recently launched a Gogoro battery swapping facility in Bogota through the Terpel Voltex brand. The companies also introduced the Gogoro 2 Plus and Gogoro VIVA Mix Smartscooters.
"In line with our commitment to supporting Colombia, we continue to expand our portfolio with alternatives that contribute to Colombia's decarbonization goals and encourage the deployment of electromobility solutions. Gogoro battery swapping strengthens and complements our comprehensive portfolio of services by offering users the convenience of swapping batteries in just seconds," said Oscar Bravo, president of Terpel.
"Gogoro and Terpel share a common vision for accelerating the shift to two-wheel sustainable transportation in Colombia and across Latin America. Gogoro Swap & Go battery swapping addresses many of the challenges that traditional plug-in charging presents," said Horace Luke, founder and CEO of Gogoro.
Gogoro is global technology leader in battery-swapping ecosystems that enable sustainable mobility solutions for cities.
The Gogoro battery swapping stations are initially located at four Terpel service stations in Bogota with plans to expand to fourteen total locations by the end of 2024 with additional plans to expand to other cities such as Medellín.
