About Mobius Motors
Mobius Motors is a pioneering Kenyan automotive startup founded in Nairobi in 2011 by Joel Jackson. It designs and manufactures rugged, low-cost SUVs tailored for rough African terrain and local mass-market budgets. After facing financial and liquidation hurdles, the company was acquired by Silverbox in 2025 to resume operations.
