Taking Another Step Towards Electric Mobility, Voltz Wants to Make It Easier for Brazilian Consumers to Acquire Its Electric Motorcycles Through Its New Battery Subscription Program
The Brazilian electric motorcycle startup Voltz has decided to address two of the main issues facing current electric mobility: limitations of the batteries in the brand’s electric two-wheeled vehicles and the high cost of acquiring an electric motorcycle. Voltz motorcycles operate at a maximum speed of 60 km/h. When out of power, the lithium battery can be removed from the motorcycle and charged wherever there is a power outlet available.

Voltz Subscription Program
To launch its new subscription program, the electric motorcycle startup recently opened two battery swap stations in the SP region that will allow each driver to replace their discharged batteries instead of plugging them in and waiting a certain time. The battery swap for Voltz electric motorcycles can be done in a matter of seconds.
Voltz’s subscription plan can reduce the cost of the brand’s two-wheeled vehicles by up to 40%. The plans are entering the Brazilian market with competitive prices ranging from R$ 19 to R$ 250, depending on the desired mileage, and also cater to heavy users, such as delivery app drivers. With each charge, the motorcycle can travel an average of 60 km. According to the startup’s website, the maximum waiting time for charging is four hours.

Voltz Has a Business Model Similar to Tesla
Regarding its business model, like Tesla, the startup plans to leverage its own physical showrooms as places where potential customers can inspect and test the motorcycles. If a person is sufficiently interested, they can complete the purchase of one of these motorcycles on the Voltz website.
Similarly, it wants to implement a franchise approach for its bicycles with independent showrooms. In addition to these plans, it expects to open workshops and accessory stores in more populated areas of Brazil.
For Renato Villar, Founder of Voltz, the Need to Offer These Motorcycles in the Brazilian Market Was Evident
“We saw that [the e-mobility market] was growing significantly, and we decided to study it more deeply,” said the entrepreneur. “Then I understood how people ride scooters, how their relationship was, and that there was already a great interest in the electric world. There was already a desire for electric mobility.”
Many of these electric vehicles operate with lithium-ion batteries. And like a common household battery, they must be collected and recycled. Otherwise, they contribute to pollution. In Europe, this is already a cause for regulatory concern.
As electricity-powered vehicles continue to rise, governments, companies, and startups must seek solutions for recycling and proper disposal of these energy sources. Likewise, users should do their own diligence regarding the environmental implications of the “green” options being offered.
