Electric motorcycles in India are a genuinely small segment. Scooters dominate the electric two-wheeler market while motorcycles remain a niche for enthusiasts, early adopters, and buyers who want a real bike, not a high-speed scooter. As of June 2026, there are seven mainstream electric motorcycles worth considering β and one major brand (Tork Motors) you should explicitly avoid.
This guide ranks the current lineup based on independently tested 0-100 km/h numbers, real-world range, owner reviews, and documented service issues. The 2026 segment includes some genuinely exciting machines (Ultraviolette F77 Mach 2) and some controversial ones (Ola Roadster X with documented safety-critical brake issue).

- Tyre wear faster than expected on Recon variant
- Charging Boost network limited (10 cities)
Market Position
Autocar Pro May 2026 sales data shows Ultraviolette’s strongest monthly sales growth in 18 months. Recon variant accounts for 60%+ of sales.
Best for
Enthusiasts wanting India’s only true performance electric motorcycle. Long-range commuters who can charge at home overnight. Riders willing to accept service network gaps in exchange for genuine performance.
2. Royal Enfield Flying Flea C6 (Rs 2.79 lakh) β The Lightest
Royal Enfield’s first electric motorcycle launched in early 2026. The Flying Flea is the lightest electric motorcycle on sale at 124 kg β significantly lighter than anything else in the segment.
Key Specs
- Battery: 5.5 kWh lithium-ion
- IDC range: 154 km
- Real-world range: 60-100 km (Autocar India test)
- Motor: 12 kW peak (16 hp)

Source: Autocar India Flying Flea C6 review .
The Honest Range Reality
The 154 km IDC claim is a marketing number. Autocar India’s real-world test returned 60-100 km depending on mode. That’s a major gap and worth knowing before paying Rs 2.79 lakh.
Royal Enfield priced the Flying Flea at a premium positioning. The 5.5 kWh battery is small for the segment. The Oben Rorr Evo at Rs 99,999 has a 4.4 kWh battery and delivers similar real-world range.
Known Issues
- Sticky rear ABS reported in Autocar India test
- Small battery limits highway use
- Only 6 VAHAN registrations by May 12, 2026 β sales effectively stalled
Autocar India Verdict
8/10 expert score. Autocar noted: “Charming aesthetic and lightweight feel, but range and Sticky rear ABS hold it back from being a genuine highway machine.”
Best for
Royal Enfield brand loyalists wanting the Flying Flea aesthetic. Riders who don’t need range beyond 50-70 km daily and value the lightest electric motorcycle on sale. Not for highway commuters.
3. Raptee HV T30 (Rs 2.39 lakh) β The Fast-Charging Underdog
Chennai-based Raptee Motors’ T30 is the most interesting newcomer in the segment. Its standout feature: CCS-2 fast charging that works on any car DC charger, completing 0-80% in 36 minutes.
Key Specs
- Battery: 5.4 kWh
- IDC range: 200 km
- Real-world range: 75-150 km (mode-dependent)
- Motor: 7.5 kW peak (10 hp)
- Top speed: 135 km/h
- DC fast charging: CCS-2 connector, 0-80% in 36 min on any car charger
- Home charging: 0-80% in 3 hours
- Riding modes: Eco, City, Sport
- Frame: Trellis
Source: Autocar India Raptee T30 review .
Why CCS-2 Charging Matters
The T30 is the only electric motorcycle in India that can plug into any car DC charger. Every Tata Power EZ Charge, Statiq, and ChargeZone station works. This solves the inter-city charging problem that limits every other electric motorcycle in this list.
Autocar India Verdict
6/10 expert score. Critical of build quality and refinement vs the Ultraviolette F77. But the CCS-2 charging feature is unique and the price is competitive.
Known Issues
- Build quality below segment expectations
- Service network limited (Chennai HQ, limited outside Tamil Nadu)
- Software refinement reported as work-in-progress
Best for
Tech-forward buyers wanting CCS-2 fast charging for inter-city use. Buyers near Raptee dealer locations in Tamil Nadu. Not the smoothest bike in the segment but the most practical for highway charging.
4. Revolt RV400 / RV400 BRZ / RV BlazeX / RV1+ (Rs 85K-1.5 lakh) β Volume Leader
Revolt has the highest review count across platforms among electric motorcycles. Multiple variants targeting different price points.
Variants
| Variant | Battery | IDC range | Top speed | Ex-showroom |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| RV1+ | 2.7 kWh | 134 km | 80 km/h | Rs 85,000 |
| RV BlazeX | 3.24 kWh | 160 km | 85 km/h | Rs 1.20 lakh |
| RV400 BRZ | 3.24 kWh | 170 km | 85 km/h | Rs 1.38 lakh |
| RV400 (original) | 3.24 kWh | 156 km | 85 km/h | Rs 1.50 lakh |
Source: BikeWale Revolt RV400 .
Real-World Range
- Eco mode: 100-130 km
- Normal mode: 80-100 km
- Sport mode: 65-80 km
Critical Issue: Service Complaints
Multiple Revolt owners on ZigWheels documented serious service centre issues :
“Service center kept my bike for 23 days. No part availability. Service manager unreachable.”
“Battery degradation faster than expected. Range dropped 30% in 1.5 years. Replacement quoted at Rs 65,000.”
“Software OTA updates have stopped since brand transition. App crashes daily.”
Best for
Budget-conscious buyers wanting the cheapest electric motorcycle option. Recognize that service availability is the biggest risk β verify your nearest dealer is operational before buying.
5. Oben Rorr Evo (Rs 99,999 intro) β Best Value Pick
Bengaluru-based Oben launched the Rorr Evo in April 2026 with deliveries starting June 2026. Introductory pricing at Rs 99,999 makes it the best value in the segment.
Key Specs
- Battery: 4.4 kWh
- IDC range: 180 km
- Real-world range: 150-180 km (owner-reported)
- Motor: 8 kW peak
- Top speed: 100 km/h
- Home charging: 0-100% in 3 hours
- Display: 7-inch TFT
- Frame: Steel trellis
- Riding modes: Eco, City, Havoc
Source: Oben Rorr Evo official , BikeWale Rorr Evo , Autocar Pro Oben Pre-Series B funding .
What Makes the Rorr Evo Notable
- Lowest price for a current-gen electric motorcycle in this list
- Best real-world range at this price point (162.5 km owner-reported)
- Recent Pre-Series B funding (Rs 85 crore) signals investor confidence in long-term viability
Caveats
- Just-launched product. Long-term reliability unknown.
- Service network limited to Bengaluru-NCR corridor as of June 2026.
- Battery warranty conflicting reports: official site says 5 years; some dealer kits say 3 years. Verify before buying.
Best for
First-time electric motorcycle buyers wanting value. Riders in Bengaluru and NCR with dealer access. Buyers willing to accept the unknowns of a new-launch product for a Rs 50,000+ price advantage vs Revolt RV400 BRZ.
6. Matter Aera 5000 / 5000+ (Rs 1.83-1.94 lakh) β India’s Only Geared Electric Motorcycle
Matter Motor Works (Ahmedabad-based) makes the Aera, India’s only electric motorcycle with a 4-speed manual gearbox. That’s a unique proposition for riders who want gear-shift engagement.
Key Specs
- Battery: 5 kWh removable
- IDC range: 172 km
- Real-world range: 110-125 km
- Motor: 10 kW peak
- Torque: 28 Nm
- Top speed: 105 km/h
- Gearbox: 4-speed manual
- Charging: 0-80% in 4.5 hours
- Display: 7-inch TFT
- Brakes: Disc front + rear, ABS
Source: Drivio Matter Aera review .
The Manual Gearbox
The 4-speed gearbox is what differentiates the Aera. Riders who love shifting gears can keep that experience on an EV. Whether it makes sense for a powertrain that delivers peak torque from zero is debatable, but it’s the Aera’s identity.
Known Issues
- Multiple owner reports of delivery delays extending 6-12 months
- Service complaints similar to Revolt β limited dealer network
- Software bugs reported on TFT and connected features
Best for
Riders who specifically want the manual gearbox experience on an electric motorcycle. Buyers with access to Matter dealers in Ahmedabad, Mumbai, Pune, or Bengaluru.
7. Ola Roadster X (Rs 1.04-1.29 lakh) β Skip This One
The Ola Roadster X launched as Ola’s first electric motorcycle in early 2026. Autocar India scored it 2/10 in road testing β the lowest score for any current electric two-wheeler.
Specs
- Battery: 2.5 kWh / 4.5 kWh
- IDC range: 117 km / 252 km
- Real-world range: 130 km (4.5 kWh, Normal mode tested)
- Top speed: 105 km/h
- 0-60 km/h: 5.0 sec (claimed)
Source: Autocar India Roadster X road test , Autocar India real-world range test .
Safety-Critical Issue
Autocar India documented a critical safety issue: the rear brake switch sticks, disabling motor power entirely. The bike’s safety-fail mode results in zero forward thrust β dangerous in traffic.
Combined with Ola’s documented MoveOS+ paywall (which now charges Rs 5,000-10,000 for Eco and Hyper modes) and the company’s broader software reliability issues, the Roadster X is hard to recommend.
Best for
Skip entirely. The Revolt RV400 BRZ at similar price offers a more proven product. The Oben Rorr Evo at Rs 99,999 introductory price offers more battery, more range, more reliability.
Tork Kratos R β Do Not Buy
Tork Motors confirmed orderly wind-up by Bharat Forge in December 2023. No production of the Kratos R has occurred since. Existing owners face uncertain warranty and parts supply.
If a dealer offers you a “deeply discounted” Kratos R, walk away. The savings cannot cover parts and service uncertainty.
PM e-DRIVE Subsidy on Electric Motorcycles
PM e-DRIVE subsidies for electric two-wheelers (which include electric motorcycles) ended July 31, 2026. Source: Autocar India PM e-DRIVE deadline .
If you’re reading this before July 31, 2026:
- Ultraviolette F77 (10.3 kWh): Rs 5,000 subsidy (hits the cap)
- Royal Enfield Flying Flea (5.5 kWh): Rs 5,000 subsidy
- Raptee T30 (5.4 kWh): Rs 5,000 subsidy
- Revolt RV400 (3.24 kWh): Rs 5,000 subsidy
- Oben Rorr Evo (4.4 kWh): Rs 5,000 subsidy
- Matter Aera (5 kWh): Rs 5,000 subsidy
The subsidy applies only to motorcycles with ex-factory price under Rs 1.5 lakh. The Ultraviolette F77 Mach 2 (Rs 4.39 lakh) exceeds this and does not qualify.
Register before July 31, 2026 to lock the subsidy on eligible bikes.
Market Sales Context
EVReporter May 2026 sales data shows electric motorcycles as a tiny share of the electric two-wheeler market β under 5%. Most electric two-wheeler sales remain in scooters (TVS iQube, Bajaj Chetak, Ather, etc.).
Ultraviolette is the volume leader in dedicated electric motorcycles. Revolt remains the highest-cumulative-volume brand. Oben’s launch is reshaping the value end of the market.
Who Should Buy What
Best performance pick: Ultraviolette F77 Mach 2 Recon (Rs 3.99 lakh). India’s fastest electric motorcycle. 180-200 km real-world range. Genuine performance credentials.
Best value pick: Oben Rorr Evo (Rs 99,999 intro). Best price + range combination. Fresh launch but Pre-Series B funded.
Best for inter-city use: Raptee HV T30 (Rs 2.39 lakh). Only electric motorcycle in India with CCS-2 fast charging that works on any car DC charger.
Best for first-time electric motorcycle buyers in Bengaluru/NCR: Oben Rorr Evo.
Best for proven brand reliability: Revolt RV400 BRZ (Rs 1.38 lakh). Highest review count. But verify nearest service centre is operational.
Best for lightweight, premium aesthetic: Royal Enfield Flying Flea C6 (Rs 2.79 lakh). 124 kg kerb weight is class-leading. Range limitation makes it a city-only pick.
Skip: Ola Roadster X (safety issue + software paywall), Tork Kratos R (company winding down).
My Verdict
Electric motorcycles in India are a small but maturing segment. Ultraviolette continues to lead at the performance end. Oben’s recent launch reshapes value. Raptee’s CCS-2 charging genuinely solves a problem nobody else has solved.
The bottom of the segment remains problematic. Revolt’s service issues, Matter’s delivery delays, and the Ola Roadster X’s documented safety problem mean buyers need to do real due diligence before signing.
If you’re spending Rs 1 lakh, the Oben Rorr Evo at Rs 99,999 is the cleanest pick. If you’re spending Rs 3-4 lakh, the Ultraviolette F77 Mach 2 Recon delivers real performance and proven reliability.
Before buying any electric motorcycle:
- Verify your nearest service centre is operational
- Confirm battery warranty terms in writing
- Test ride before signing (each bike’s torque delivery is different)
- Register before July 31, 2026 to lock the PM e-DRIVE subsidy

Does the Royal Enfield Flying Flea deliver its claimed range? No. Royal Enfield claims 154 km IDC range. Autocar India’s real-world test returned 60-100 km depending on riding mode. The claim is significantly inflated.
Can I fast-charge an electric motorcycle at any DC station? Only the Raptee HV T30. It uses a CCS-2 connector compatible with any car DC fast charger (Tata Power EZ Charge, Statiq, ChargeZone). No other electric motorcycle has this capability.
Is Tork Motors still in business? No. Bharat Forge confirmed orderly wind-up of Tork Motors in December 2023. No Kratos R production has occurred since. Do not buy.
Does PM e-DRIVE subsidy apply to electric motorcycles? Yes, but the deadline ended July 31, 2026 for two-wheelers. Eligible motorcycles under Rs 1.5 lakh ex-factory got Rs 5,000 subsidy (Rs 2,500 per kWh capped at Rs 5,000). The Ultraviolette F77 Mach 2 at Rs 4.39 lakh exceeded the cap and did not qualify.
Which electric motorcycle has the best service network? Royal Enfield Flying Flea benefits from Royal Enfield’s existing motorcycle dealer network (200+ dealers). Ultraviolette F77 has growing service centres in Tier 1 cities but limited Tier 2/3 coverage. Revolt’s service network has documented quality issues.
