The electric scooter space in India is currently leading from the forefront. Not only indigenous start-ups are leaving their mark but several international brands also want a piece of the pie. One Moto is a British brand that is looking to enter the EV space in India with one of its products. One Moto has launched their high-speed electric scooter Electa in India. Electa is positioned as a premium scooter priced at ₹1,99,000 Lakhs [ex-showroom].
Specs and features
Electa is the third high-speed scooter from One Moto after the launch of Commuta and Byka here in November. All three products get support for One App that provides functionalities like Geo-fencing, IoT, and Bluetooth, among others.
But what seeks to set Electa apart is its 72V and 45A detachable lithium-ion battery that can be powered to full in four hours. Capable of going 150 kms before needing to be plugged back in, the electric scooter has a top speed of 100 kmph courtesy of a 4KW QS brushless DC Hub motor. While the display is analogue, the Electa does come with hydraulic disk brakes on both wheels and optional chrome upgrades. There is also a three-year warranty on the motor, controller, and battery.
The One Moto Electa can be booked from their official website and dealership. The deliveries will begin in February of 2022. One Moto intends to strengthen the brand’s presence across the country, beginning with key markets of Karnataka, Andhra Pradesh, Telangana, Gujarat, Pondicherry, Madhya Pradesh, and Rajasthan.
