One of the stated goals of the Mobius motor company is the production of safe, affordable, and tropicalized vehicles that can meet the transportation needs of the local population. The company builds in-expensive vehicles by integrating off-the-shelf-parts within a durable steel frame. At $11,000, the Mobius is reputed to be the lowest-priced new vehicle in Kenya.

Some of the successful Mobius car models on offer include the Mobius I and the Mobius II.
