India is in the midst of a revolution in transiting from combustion-powered two-wheelers to electric motorcycles and other two-wheel electric vehicles. There are several incentives both within the Federal and regional structure of the country that is at the heart of the rapid development in the segment. A lot of traditional automakers have also delved into the production of electric vehicles, while the electric two-wheeler industry’s growth is being propelled by some strong performances by TVS, Okinawa, Hero, Ola, and a host of other manufacturers. Mazout Electric is priming itself to be a highly successful startup in the Indian electric motorcycle industry. The company has now developed an electric cruiser motorcycle that could ride for 350 km on a single charge, according to the company. The bike has a top speed of 120km/h.Mazout Electric Bike

The Mazout electric cruiser motorcycle was actually developed by a team of engineering students at Delhi Technical University. A YouTube video that showcased the electric cruiser motorcycle provides some details about the technical and hardware specifications of the model, which is their second prototype. The students are the owners of the Mazout Electric startup and are also working on the software part of the electric cruiser motorcycle. The model, when unveiled to the Indian market, could mark a significant improvement on the range of current electric motorcycles. In fact, the Indian market lacks the presence of an electric cruiser motorcycle and the Mazout could change the narrative.

The design concept for the Mazout EV is based on the conventional cruiser motorbikes. The model will have a 25kWh battery pack to deliver the specified driving range. It remains to be seen, however, how the company evolves the Mazout electric cruiser motorcycle until it becomes a commercially sold product. The pricing component and overall features in the Mazout could determine the reception it receives in the market.
