Empowering Women Mobility Using Electric Two-Wheelers

Aloi has organized Women Mobility program, a two-wheeler program focusing on empowering women by creating a supportive ecosystem providing essential skills and job opportunities. In this program, we provide credit at a very low interest rate under understandable circumstances to train and guide the participants. Following are the criteria and details of the program. If you have any trouble understanding our program, please feel free to contact us.

Who can participate in our women mobility program? 

• Women who want to join the workforce but don’t know how to drive or lack access to capital
• Women supported by associations or NGOs
• Women interested in starting businesses in sectors like transportation, where driving and capital are crucial
• Young women pursuing education or vocational training aiming to enter fields requiring driving skills and capital
• Women looking for career advancement in roles like marketing and sales

The program is divided into three phases:

Phase 1: Training Loans

In the first phase, we will connect interested women to financial institutions that can provide loans to cover their training, licensing costs, and multiple trials if needed.

The first two months will be considered as a grace period where the borrower only needs to repay the interest amount. The full repayment of the loan starts two months after beginning the job. The repayment period is valid for 1 year and, also could be repaid on a daily/ weekly or monthly basis as per their convenience.

Our first phase of training includes:

• Preparation for written and trial exams
• Training on gear, traffic rules, and fall management
• Basic vehicle maintenance guidance
• Provision of protective gear (helmet, gloves)
• Up to 2 hours of extra road training
• 30 days of daily half-hour driving training
• Up to 2 trial attempts
• Driving training between trial attempts
• Testing knowledge on trial grounds

Phase 2: Leasing and Employment 

After the trained women obtain their licenses, participants can lease electric scooters from Aloi or our rental partners (Niu, Segway, Komaki, Yadea, Super Soco, etc.). They can work in our partnered logistics companies (Bhoj, Upaya, Pick N Drop, Khaanpin, etc.) with a stable salary and can also do ride-sharing for extra income. During this phase, we expect the women to save for the down payment to buy their own scooters. We would love to see empowered women with their own stable income.

Phase 3: Access to EV financing 

Once the down payment is saved, Aloi will help participants get financing from banks to purchase their own electric scooters. Aloi will also connect participants with EV vendors offering heavy discounts.

What to expect from our women mobility training program?

● Women who receive driving training for electric 2-wheelers will get the necessary skills

to operate these vehicles, thereby increasing their mobility and independence.

● Access to credit facilities will enable women to buy electric scooters on their own, allowing them to commute and earn income, achieving financial empowerment.

● Promoting electric scooters will reduce carbon emissions and air pollution, contributing to a sustainable transportation system.

● Increased female participation in logistics will prove women can excel in this industry, and boosting the adoption of electric vehicles, helping logistics companies reduce costs and support a healthier climate.
