Taipei, Taiwan\'s scooter hub, moves toward full electrification
Taiwan’s scooter market has entered a turning point in 2026 as the shift from internal combustion engines to electric drivetrains moves beyond the experimental stage. Electric scooter sales rose in the first quarter on replacement demand for ageing gasoline models, spreading into daily commuting. Electric two-wheelers still account for a small share, though their portion has risen since end-2024. Sales trends have been uneven, while Gogoro and rivals compete on products and battery infrastructure amid subsidies.
