BGauss RUV 350 electric scooter production begins in India

Indian electric two-wheeler player, BGauss, has announced the start of production for the new RUV350 electric scooter at the company’s manufacturing facility in Chakan, Maharashtra. The new BGauss RUV350 was launched in June this year as a cross between a scooter and motorcycle priced from ₹1.10 lakh, going up to ₹1.35 lakh (ex-showroom). The RUV stands for ‘Ride Utility Vehicle’ and promises go-anywhere capability.

BGauss RUV 350 Production Begins

The BGauss RUV350 gets all-new underpinnings, according to the company. The step-thru styling is evident with the larger 16-inch alloy wheels and single seat but you get a flat floorboard that makes it practical for Indian sensibilities. The e-scooter also gets telescopic forks at the front that promise 1.25 times better absorption when compared to a conventional electric scooter. Braking performance comes from drum brakes at either end.

The BGauss RUV 350 gets a 3.4 kW motor with 165 Nm of peak torque. The motor has been mounted on to the rear wheel
