Oben Electric has announced that it is working on its second indigenous electric motorcycle platform, O100 (pronounced as O hundred). This new platform will mark the company's strategic entry into the 100cc equivalent motorcycle segment.
O100 is built to power a new generation of affordable electric motorcycles under Rs 1 lakh which caters to the needs of India's mass commuter base. With scalability at its core, enabling faster product iterations and manufacturing ramp-up, the platform allows Oben Electric to deliver high-quality electric motorcycles that cater to a wide range of commuter needs. With a modular and versatile architecture, O100 supports multiple variants, different battery options, and functionalities tailored to different customer segments.
Madhumita Agrawal, Founder and CEO, Oben Electric said, "At Oben Electric, we design and build with intent - to solve real-world mobility challenges. Our new platform, O100 is engineered for India's mass daily commuters and aims to make electric motorcycles a practical reality for every Indian. Leveraging our proprietary LFP battery technology and other critical components including motor, VCU, and chargers, all developed and manufactured in-house, we've built a robust, vertically integrated foundation for a new generation of electric motorcycles, accelerating EV adoption across urban and rural India alike."
Oben Electric has plans to cross 100+ showrooms by the end of the year. The new platform is likely to give multifold growth to Oben and its dealers. Motorcycles built on O100 platform are set to launch in the latter half of 2025.
