The HOP OXO is a 125 cc motorcycle equivalent and rivals the Revolt RV400 and the Tork Kratos R in the segment. The model draws power from the 3.75 kWh lithium-ion battery pack with the electric motor churning out 6.2 kW (8.2 bhp) and 200 Nm of peak torque. The e-motorcycle promises a range of 150 km on a single charge. While the latest OTA update does not improve the range in any way, a more accurate prediction is certainly a big welcome.

Other hardware components include telescopic front forks and twin shock absorbers at the rear. Braking performance comes from disc brakes at either end with a combi-braking system. The model also gets regenerative braking to improve range by a small margin. The OXO gets a 5-inch LCD display with vehicle telematics. The electric motorcycle can be fully charged in about four hours.
