Solutions for Philippine fleets
Everything a Philippine fleet needs to go electric.
GerWeiss is the only Philippine EV company that builds the vehicles, runs the 2-minute battery swap network, and keeps your fleet moving day to day. One partner for vehicles, swapping, charging, and on-the-ground maintenance - so your drivers keep earning and your routes keep running.
Electric public transport needs four things working together.
If any one part is missing - the vehicle, the battery, the charging, or the local team - the whole fleet stops earning. That is why most early e-trike pilots in the Philippines have stalled. GerWeiss is the only Philippine operator that runs all four in one system, so you get uptime instead of stranded hardware.
- Vehicles. Commercial e-trikes built for Philippine public transport routes, not converted scooters.
- Batteries. A swap network that refuels in under 2 minutes, not hours at a charger.
- Charging. DOE-accredited swap and charging sites placed where your routes actually run.
- Local team. Filipino field mechanics who fix, maintain, and rescue even competitor fleets.
The GerWeiss system
One partner, four working parts.
GerWeiss is a Philippine manufacturer and DOE-accredited EVCS provider. Each part of the system is designed in the Philippines, for Philippine routes, by a Filipino team - so every module is ready for daily public transport use.
Commercial e-trikes built for Philippine routes
Our GE4, GEM, and G-TRIKE platforms are locally designed and assembled for the heat, rain, and traffic of everyday Philippine public transport. The flagship GE4 carries up to 9 passengers at 50 km/h (speed-limited for safety) and runs on our 5-Star battery platform with a 150+ km range, so a driver can complete a full route day without worrying about charge.
- Up to 9 passengers per unit
- 150+ km range per battery
- LTO MAIRDOE-accredited for public transport use
- Four model variants: GE4, GEM, G-TRIKE
2-minute battery swaps - no charging downtime
Instead of parking vehicles for hours at a charger, drivers pull into a GerWeiss swap station and are back on the road in under 2 minutes with a fresh battery. Pay-per-use pricing means no large upfront battery purchase - you only pay for the swaps you use, and you skip the daily fuel spend that can exceed PHP 400 per tricycle.
- Under 2 minutes per swap
- Pay-per-use pricing - no battery capex
- Avoids PHP 400+ per day fuel cost per unit
- Full route uptime - vehicles keep earning
Local field teams that keep fleets running
Every GerWeiss deployment comes with Philippine-based field mechanics, GPS route visibility, and utilization tracking. We also rescue mixed fleets - including competitor e-trikes that other suppliers have stopped supporting - so cooperatives and LGUs do not end up with stranded hardware.
- Local field mechanics in every active city
- GPS route and utilization visibility
- Mixed-fleet maintenance - including other brands
- Rescue service for abandoned e-trike fleets
PUVMP and LPTRP support for local governments
GerWeiss has been recognized by the UN Department of Economic and Social Affairs (UN DESA) and the Asian Development Bank (ADB) for work in public transport electrification. We help LGUs and transport cooperatives draft Local Public Transport Route Plans (LPTRP) and align e-trike deployments with the Public Utility Vehicle Modernization Program (PUVMP).
- LPTRP route planning support
- PUVMP-aligned fleet proposals
- UN DESA and ADB recognition
- Direct work with LGUs and cooperatives
From route plan to a live electric fleet in five steps.
GerWeiss is built for operators who need routes to keep running while they electrify. We avoid large upfront costs, avoid downtime, and avoid the stranded-asset risk that has sunk so many Philippine e-trike pilots.
- Share your route plan and current fleet size.
- GerWeiss returns a route-fit proposal with model mix, swap-station siting, and financing options.
- Deploy with zero cash out through pay-per-use battery leasing.
- Local field mechanics keep the fleet running, including mixed-fleet rescue.
- Monthly reports on uptime, swaps, emissions avoided, and driver take-home pay.

How does battery swapping work?
Drivers swap depleted batteries for charged ones in under two minutes at GerWeiss swap stations, keeping vehicles on route instead of waiting hours for charging.

How does aftersales and fleet maintenance work with GerWeiss?
GerWeiss runs local field service teams in every active deployment city. Aftersales includes scheduled maintenance, on-site repair, battery swap network operations, and fleet visibility software. Uniquely, GerWeiss also maintains mixed fleets - including repair and rehabilitation of competitor e-trikes left unsupported by previous manufacturers or importers. For LGUs and transport cooperatives, this means continuity of public transport service even when an imported brand exits the Philippine market. Routine maintenance is included under the pay-per-use battery leasing model; major repairs are quoted separately with defined SLAs.
