EV manufacturer Okinawa Autotech has launched the updated version of its electric scooter, the Okhi-90. The revamped EV will be available at the same price as the outgoing model at Rs 1.86 lakh, ex-showroom. The deliveries will commence from September 2023.
The company’s flagship EV now comes with a new battery pack, which is AIS-156 Amendment 3 compliant. Furthermore, it gets a next-gen motor, and a host of enhancements in terms of technology features.
The suspension duties for the electric scooter will be performed by a hydraulic suspension unit in front and a double shocker setup at the rear. Furthermore, it is offered with a micro-charger with an auto-cut function besides featuring E-ABS (Electronic-Assisted Braking System) with regenerative energy.
The company said that it will be upgrading its entire product portfolio in collaboration with its Italian partners, Tacita. The 2023 Okhi-90 features a new encoder-based motor, a digital speedometer, an anti-theft alarm, GPS navigation and Bluetooth connectivity. Additionally, it boasts of mobile app connectivity, which will offer real-time battery SOC and speed monitoring.
The 2023 Okhi-90 delivers a claimed range of 160 kilometres on a single charge while its top-speed is governed at 90 kmph. The battery of this electric scooter can be juiced fully in 4-5 hours. It is available in four colour options - Red, Blue, Grey, and White.
In June 2023, Okinawa Autotech sold 2,616 units, witnessing a substantial 10 percent drop as against the 2,907 units clocked in May 2023. The drop in sales can be attributed to the reduction of FAMEII subsidies, which has temporarily slowed down the electric two-wheeler adoption in the country.
