At present KYMCO is looking to partner with a local player. However, the company is keen on entering the country within the stipulated time and will do so (as a standalone manufacturer) even if it does not find one. The brand at present does not have a clear roadmap of the portfolio, but expect more details as its deadline arrives. The company is reportedly looking to introduce premium electric vehicles and maxi-scooters.
