EV maker One Electric launches three new models with an eye on the global market

Mumbai: Electric two-wheeler maker One Electric on Tuesday said that it will be launching a portfolio of three vehicles for sales across India and 10 overseas markets in Asia, Europe and Africa.

Meanwhile, the company is studying markets in South East Asia, Americas and Europe for further overseas expansion.

The newly launched vehicles include two motorcycles and a scooter. These will target the bike taxi, last mile deliveries and affordable city commuter segments.


The company is working with B2B partners in India for deploying its vehicles for commercial operations and has also selected dealers for sales to the consumer segment in the coming year.

Meanwhile, the company is scouting suitable partners for its global operations.

The new vehicles have been completely designed, developed and made in India with design patents pending, the company said. The company claims to be the first to develop and launch multiple indigenous electric two-wheeler models in India.

Along with these three models, the company is also coming out with a low speed model for short distance deliveries under five kilometres, priced under Rs 39,000 with an 80 kilometre range and 25 kmph top speed., said Gaurav Uppal, the CEO of One Electric.

"Based on our market data, our products are suitable for other international markets as is, or with some drivetrain modifications”, Uppal said. "For example in Europe, where the speed is limited to under 60 kmph in central parts of major cities, our XR model is ideal for last mile delivery operations. However, for the South East Asian markets, we will require our bigger power train to be integrated on this same platform with a top speed of 80 Kmph."

The company's flagship electric motorcycle, KRIDN, is already in B2B operations in India and multiple countries in Africa. With the addition of the XR model and a low speed model, One Electric's B2B portfolio expands to cover lower priced segments as well.
