Simple Energy recently launched the Wave electric scooter in India, priced from Rs. 1.10 lakh (ex-showroom). The scooter is available in three variants – S, Standard, and Plus – with the variants differentiated by battery pack sizes and colour options.
The entry-level Wave S is offered with two battery options – 2.2kWh and 2.7kWh. The 2.2kWh version is available in Pearl White and Dolphin Grey, while the larger 2.7kWh battery variant gets four colour options – Pearl White, Coral Red, Twilight Black, and Polar Blue.
The Standard and Plus variants are offered in all six colours. Along with the four shades available on the Wave S 2.7kWh, these variants also get Dolphin Grey and Forest Green paint schemes.
The Simple Wave is powered by a 6.4kW electric motor that offers a claimed top speed of up to 90kmph. The scooter accelerates from 0-40kmph in 3.3 seconds in the Wave and Wave Plus variants, while the S trim takes 4 seconds to do the same sprint. Depending on the variant, it can be had with battery packs ranging from 2.2kWh to 5kWh, which offer a claimed range between 110km to 243km.
The scooter gets a class-leading storage capacity of 70 litres that can easily accommodate a full-face race helmet and a half-face helmet. Feature-wise, it comes packed with a seven-inch TFT display with smartphone connectivity, turn-by-turn navigation, and call/SMS alerts.
