Hop Electric has commenced deliveries of the Oxo electric motorcycle with Jaipur getting the first batch of vehicles. The manufacturer says it handed over 2,500 units to customers in the city and has garnered over 10,000 bookings since the launch earlier this year. Hop Electric says the Oxo has received over 50,000 interests since prices were announced two months ago.

In addition to Jaipur, we will be starting deliveries in other states shortly - Uttar Pradesh, Gujarat, Tamil Nadu, Telangana, West Bengal, to name a few."
