Pune based company Tork Motors has finally ended the wait and is all set to launch its Torque Kratos electric motorcycle. Kratos has been launched on 26th January, India’s Republic Day. The Torque Kratos electric motorcycle has been made for the past six years and was codenamed T6X when it was first unveiled in 2016.
After thorough testing, development and research, the company has now come up with an electric bike. Tork Kratos is all set to become the first indigenous electric motorcycle in the Indian market with a modern sporty design and features.
The price of Tork Kratos in India is around 1.2 lakh rupees. These prices should be reduced slightly except for central and state government subsidies. Bookings for the motorcycle will open after the launch, with deliveries commencing from March 7.
According to reports, the company plans to sell around 5,000-10,000 units of the electric motorcycle annually in the first 3 years. Tork Motors has set up a manufacturing plant in Pune.
