Jaipur-based electric two-wheeler maker Batt:RE on Monday unveiled its new e-scooter model Stor:ie priced at Rs 89,600. The price is ex-showroom, excluding the subsidy amount provided by the central as well as state governments, the company said.

Stor:ie has a host of new features such as metal panels, connected drive, among others, it said, adding that the e-scooter is eligible for the central government’s FAME II subsidy.

The e-scooter will be available at 400 dealerships across India.

Powered by a Lucas TVS motor and controller with a 3.1kWh battery pack which helps the vehicle run for up to 132 kilometres on a single charge, extensive focus has been placed on research and development to make the e-scooter safer and more reliable, it stated.

“As a firm step towards sustainability, we are delighted to announce our newest offering Stor:ie, which is meant to bridge the gap between the present and a future of easier and greener mobility.

“Our offerings are a testament to our rigorous safety protocols and a vision for a better tomorrow. We look forward to creating a robust portfolio of products that are high on innovation and meet the evolving demands of our conscious consumers,” said Nishchal Chaudhary, founder-director, Batt:RE.
