India's fastest electric motorcycle unveiled by Kabira Mobility

Goa-based electric two-wheeler startup Kabira Mobility has unveiled its flagship electric motorcycle in India, i.e. the KM5000. The motorcycle is priced at Rs 3.15 lakh (ex-showroom, Goa), with a launch set to take place later this year, and deliveries starting in 2024.

Kabira Mobility claims that the KM5000 is India's fastest electric motorcycle, and also has the longest range for any electric bike. The KM5000 features a cruiser design, and incorporates a single-sided swing arm with a mid-drive powertrain developed in collaboration with DeltaEV. The motorcycle boasts a top speed of 188 kmph - the highest for any electric bike in the country.




The KM5000 is equipped with an 11.6 kWh water-cooled LFP battery pack that provides a range of 344 km on a single charge. The charging options include a high-speed charger that can charge the motorcycle from 0 to 80% in under two hours, and a standard charger for overnight charging. The suspension setup consists of Showa upside down front forks, coupled with a Nitrox unit at the back.

On the equipment front, the KM5000 gets a seven-inch touch screen digital dashboard with 4G connectivity, turn-by-turn navigation, music control, in-depth vehicle information, and more. The digital display also shows battery health, and has a smart diagnostics feature to keep the vehicle health in check. The electric motorcycle gets twin disc brakes at the front and a single rear disc, with dual channel ABS.



Other features on offer include a tyre pressure monitoring system (TPMS), a side step, fast charging capability, park assist (reverse mode), fall sensors, elevation stabilizer, LED projector headlamp with ring-shaped DRL and LED tail light. The motorcycle seems to feature a bobber-like styling with a single-seat setup. Kabira Mobility will offer the KM5000 in three colour options, namely Midnight Grey, Deep Khaki, and Aquamarine.
