Chinese Company Promotes Investments in Electric Motorcycles in Chile

The Chinese company SUNRA, with more than 20 years of experience and listed on the Shanghai Stock Exchange, is committed to electromobility on two wheels in Chile.

With this, they are part of the challenge present in the National Electromobility Strategy for 100% of light vehicle sales to be zero-emission by 2035.

Years of Experience

SUNRA landed in Chile in 2019 and gradually began to make itself known in the market. “Chile has the Electromobility Strategy in process and we are aligned with it, that is, to contribute so that in 2035 100% of vehicle sales are zero emissions,” said Nicolás Donoso, General Manager of SUNRA Chile to Portal Innova.

He explained that electromobility is here to stay and the Chilean market will continue to grow. “It is essential to care for the environment, the collapse at the urban level, vehicle congestion and the economic impact at the general level, especially given the rise in fuel prices.

“With electric motorcycles we are providing a modern, efficient and state-of-the-art solution for both individuals and companies. In addition, we see with very good eyes the public-private impulses for this market to continue growing, although there is certainly still a long way to go, especially on the side of greater flexibility in regulations and greater focus on the necessary cultural advancement,” he added.

José Montoya, Commercial Manager of SUNRA Chile, pointed out that in general, when talking about electromobility, people talk more about four-wheeled vehicles, but there is a key role for light two-wheeled vehicles.

The brand landed with several models available in different colors, the most prominent of which are: Miku Super, Robo-S and Anger. These 3 models have 3 driving modes, reach 80 km/h, have LED lights, digital display, CBS disc brake, and 2 removable batteries that together provide an average range of 80km.

At the moment, the focus of the operation is in Santiago, but motorcycles have already been sold to regions and they are looking for partners to expand the network of distributors throughout Chile. The company already has banking alliances to provide payment facilities.
