In December 2021, Indian startup OBEN EV unveiled its first electric bike designed and developed by Bengaluru couple Dinkar and Madhumita Agarwal. The electric bike developed by the start-up has already garnered 16 patented innovations and has begun testing on select roads. The electric motorcycle christened Oben Rorr has now been launched for the Indian market.

Oben Rorr electric motorcycle promises to be a powerful machine as it packs a 4.4 kWh lithium-ion battery pack and the drivechain is a 10 kW electric motor. The e-bike has a peak torque of 62 Nm and is capable of doing 0-40 km/h in just 3 seconds. The e-bike has a top speed of 100km/h but that can be adjusted to fit into three riding modes – Eco, City, and Havoc.

One interesting feature which will make the Oben Rorr EV stand out among its peers is the maximum range it can go on a single charge – a staggering 200km! Tha is almost twice the range of most e-bikes with the same engine capacity. Even if you run out of battery power, the electric motorcycle can be fully charged in about 2 hours.

Aesthetically, the Oben Rorr is a marvel, sporting a rugged, yet sleek design that will sure turn heads when it cruises past them on the road. The e-bike is fitted with a circular all-LED headlamp with LED DRLs. The turn indicators and taillamp are also LED lamps. The bike’s instrument cluster is an all-digital affair.

In terms of pricing and availability, the Oben Rorr electric motorcycle will retail for Rs 99,999 (~$1,315) in Maharashtra. However, the price is slightly higher in six other cities where it will also go on sale. The Rorr is expected to start shipping in July, 2002.
