Sleek has joined forces with ICBC Leasing (Thailand) to introduce the "SLEEK Green Loan" campaign, offering affordable financing for electric motorcycle ownership. Kantinun Tanveenung, CEO and co-founder of Sleek EV, announced that the program aims to improve access to financing and make it easier for professional riders to own electric motorcycles. The loan provides a maximum credit amount of 86,900 baht with repayment periods up to 36 months, with entry-level monthly payments of 3,362 baht or approximately 113 baht per day.

The campaign comes amid surging growth in electric vehicle and motorcycle adoption in the commercial transport sector. Demand for electric vehicles has climbed more than 35% compared to the same quarter last year, fueled by rising consumer environmental consciousness. Sleek developed the Green Loan initiative to support riders seeking commercial use of electric motorcycles, offering flexible ownership options and financial relief.

Customers can apply for the SLEEK Green Loan with any Sleek electric motorcycle model, including the SLEEK PLAY and TYPE-E. The program reduces upfront capital barriers while supporting long-term energy cost and maintenance management. The partnership reflects Sleek's commitment to building a comprehensive ecosystem that supports riders throughout their journey—not just through vehicle sales, but also energy services, after-sales support, and appropriate financing options. This enables riders to confidently start their careers, generate income, and enjoy improved quality of life through reduced costs, increased earning opportunities, and sustainable transportation.
