Oben Electric has started the deliveries of its electric bike named Rorr. However, the manufacturer has successfully delivered the first 25 units of Rorr at the First to Rorr (F2R) event.
This event was organized at their 3.5-acre manufacturing plant in Bangalore. Recently, Oben raised a fund of Rs. 40 Crores for increasing the production capacity to 1,00,000 units per year.
About Oben Rorr
Oben Rorr is an electric bike which is finalized by the manufacturer after filtering out 21 patents. The upcoming Rorr bike is made up of 95% localized parts and components. This bike is powered by an 8kW IPMSM-rated electric motor and a 4.4 kWh battery pack. It complies with AIS 156 regulations. This results in a claimed 0-40km/h sprint in 3 seconds, a top speed of 100km/h, and a riding range of 187km.
The manufacturer has developed a new battery pack using metal components like LFP (Lithium Ferrous Phosphorous). Oben will introduce a new charging technology allowing its customers to charge their motorcycle at home earlier than other 2-wheelers. The manufacturer claims that regular home charging takes 83 mins. per kWh, but their Rorr electric bike can be fully charged in 2 hours. Oben is offering 3 free services, free RSA, and 3 year or 50,000 km warranty on Rorr. However, this warranty can be extended to 5 years or 75,000 km.
