Oben Rorr EZ electric bike prices increased

• 3.4kWh and 4.4kWh variants get pricier by Rs. 10,000
• No price hike for the 2.6kWh variant

Bengaluru-based Oben Electric has increased the prices of its newest electric motorcycle, the Rorr EZ. The 3.4kWh and 4.4kWh variants of the motorcycle have become dearer by Rs. 10,000 as the validity of the introductory prices have ended. As a result, the former costs Rs. 1.10 lakh and the latter is pegged at Rs. 1.20 lakh. Fortunately, the entry-level 2.6kWh trim continues to be retailed for Rs. 90,000 (all prices are ex-showroom). The Rorr EZ was launched in India in November last year.

Featuring LFP battery technology, the claimed IDC range of the bike is 175km for the variant with the biggest battery. The IDC range from 2.6kWh and 3.4kWh variants is 110km and 140km, respectively. Moreover, the 80 per cent charging time through a fast charger also varies from 45 minutes to 1.5 hours.

All the variants are powered by the same 7.5kW motor that can propel the Rorr EZ to a top speed of 95kmph and produce a torque output of 52Nm. The zero to 40kmph spring timing stands at 3.3 seconds which should make it a fun-to-ride city commuter. As for the hardware, the motorcycle rides on 17-inch alloy wheels with telescopic forks and a monoshock. Braking duties are taken care of by a disc-drum combination.

Aesthetically, the Rorr looks unique with a retro-inspired round headlamp along with sleek body panels from the ‘fuel tank’ to the tail section. It is available in four colour options. On the feature front, it’s decently equipped with the package comprising a colour-segmented LED display and three riding modes with varying top speeds. Safety features include geo-fencing, battery theft protection, vandalism protection, a driver alert system, and a combined braking system.
