Oben Electric has increased the prices of its latest electric motorcycle, the Rorr EZ. The mid and top-tier variants, featuring 3.4kWh and 4.4kWh battery options, have become costlier by Rs. 10,000. The updated prices are Rs. 1.10 lakh for the 3.4kWh variant and Rs. 1.20 lakh for the 4.4kWh model. However, the base 2.6kWh variant remains at Rs. 90,000 (all prices ex-showroom). This price revision comes after the bike’s launch in November last year.
Battery
One of the standout aspects of the Oben Rorr EZ is its LFP (Lithium Ferro Phosphate) battery technology. This battery type is known for its longevity, better thermal stability, and improved safety. The motorcycle is available in three battery options, each offering different performance levels:
Battery Capacity | IDC Range | Fast Charging Time (80%) |
---|---|---|
2.6kWh | 110km | 45 minutes |
3.4kWh | 140km | 1 hour |
4.4kWh | 175km | 1.5 hours |
These ranges are based on ideal conditions and may vary in real-world usage. With fast charging support, riders can quickly top up their battery, making the Rorr EZ a practical choice for city commutes.
Performance
Despite different battery capacities, all variants of the Rorr EZ share the same electric motor. This 7.5kW motor generates a peak torque of 52Nm, allowing the bike to achieve a top speed of 95kmph. Acceleration is also impressive, with a 0-40kmph sprint time of just 3.3 seconds. This makes it a nimble and responsive ride, ideal for urban conditions where quick acceleration is a plus.
