One Electric says that its production operations have been going smoothly despite the ongoing challenges. "Since ours is an 80 per cent plus localized motorcycle, the Farmers protest in NCR along with skyrocketing raw material prices are posing a challenge to the smooth rollout. However, we had also not truly anticipated the challenges of supply chain management of a vehicle. Most of the bottlenecks have now been addressed and we expect a smoother scaling up of operations in the coming year," added Gaurav.
The company claims that KRIDN EV is the fastest 'made in India' electric bike in India. It is claimed to produce 5.5kW (7.4bhp) of peak power from its electric motor. The top speed of the EV has been rated at 95 kmph. Some of its key features include riding modes, disc brakes, digital odometer, and an optional GPS tech.
