Oben Electric is set to start delivering its performance electric motorcycle, Oben Rorr, in the first week of July 2023. Oben Electric recently opened its first experience center in HSR Layout, Bangalore. It has a distribution network in major Indian cities and plans to meet the demand of 21,000 preorders by scaling up its manufacturing capacity.
The homegrown design, development, and localization efforts, are backed by 21 patents and 95% component-level localization. It meets the latest Indian government regulations and safety standards for electric vehicles and batteries (AIS 156 amendment III phase II). The Oben Rorr offers a 10 kW IPMSM motor developed in-house that enables impressive acceleration (0-40 kmph in 3 seconds) and a top speed of 100 kmph. It also sets a benchmark with a certified range of 187 km (IDC), India’s highest among electric two-wheelers. It also boasts of a first-in-segment LFP (Lithium Ferrous Phosphorous) cell technology-based battery pack, designed and developed in-house, which provides two times (2x) longer battery life and 50% higher heat resistance, making it the safest electric two-wheeler in India.
Oben Electric offers customers to charge the Oben Rorr electric motorcycle at home in half the time compared to other electric two-wheelers in the market. Oben Rorr’s 4.4 kWh battery can be fully charged at home in just 120 minutes (2 hours). The company has a 360-degree R&D roadmap, including the development and testing of a prototype for its second product set to launch in 2024. The EV brand is also focusing on advanced battery technology to enhance performance, range, and lifespan, to further reduce charge time, and minimize reliance on rare earth materials.
Madhumita Agrawal, Founder and CEO, Oben Electric, expressed her excitement about rolling out their electric motorcycle and welcoming the first set of customers of Oben Rorr. We are delighted that our customers have shown trust in the product and created a high demand. Oben Electric is committed to providing the segment’s best-in-class products to its customers.
