Svitch CSR 762 e-motorcycle launched at ₹1.90 lakh. Will rival Tork Kratos R

Ahmedabad-based electric two-wheeler start-up, Svitch Group has announced the launch of the new CSR 762 electric motorcycle, over a year after it was first announced. The company revealed the production-ready Svitch CSR 762 in October last year and has now announced the price of ₹1.90 lakh (ex-showroom). The new e-motorcycle will be the first in class with a 40-litre space for a helmet at the front. The company also claims a top speed of 120 kmph and a range of 190 km on a single charge.

Prospective buyers can pre-book the Svitch CSR 762 electric motorcycle for as little as ₹1 and the company’s website suggests it has received over 12,000 orders already. Deliveries will begin in August this year, the company has confirmed. The CSR 762 will take on the Tork Kratos R and Matter Aera also available at a similar price point in the electric motorcycle market.

Svitch says it will open dealerships with the locations based on the more number of pre-bookings from the region.
