About the upcoming Orxa Mantis E-Motorcycle
Orxa Mantis is an exciting electric motorcycle set to make its debut in the Indian market. It is poised to be a strong competitor against the popular Ultraviolette F77. The Orxa Mantis will feature a cutting-edge liquid-cooled electric motor, delivering powerful performance.
