By Biketoq Editor

That’s right, the iconic motorcycle brand is going green with a new electric bike set to hit the streets within the next two years.

Siddhartha Lal, the cool CEO of Eicher Motors, confirmed this exciting news. He spilled the beans that the company is already hard at work testing the electric motorcycle prototype. They’ve even put together a team of experts to figure out all the nitty-gritty details of the electric vehicle (EV) business. Talk about dedication!

Royal Enfield is investing a whopping Rs. 1000 crores in 2023-24, and part of that moolah is going towards developing new products and focusing on EVs. They’re serious about this electric game, folks!

To make this electric dream a reality, Royal Enfield has hired around 100 talented individuals who will be working exclusively on the electric vehicle lineup. That’s a whole bunch of new jobs created, and it’s awesome to see!

The company has big plans for the electric future. They’re aiming for a production capacity of up to 1.5 lakh units of EVs at their existing facility. They see the EV business as a long-term growth engine, and we couldn’t agree more. Let’s ride towards a greener tomorrow!

Now, let’s talk about the star of the show—the electric motorcycle itself. Rumor has it that it will be based on a brand-new dedicated EV platform known internally as the L-Platform. Fancy, isn’t it? The production version will draw inspiration from the design language of the Electrik01 concept. So expect some seriously cool vibes!

The CEO, B Govindarajan, is super committed to the EV space. He wants to make sure that Royal Enfield can produce 1-1.5 lakh units of electric bikes at their existing facility. That’s a whole lot of electric power on the roads!

Reports suggest that the Royal Enfield electric bike will utilize a new 96V architecture called the ‘L-platform.’ It’s all about aligning the design cues from the Electrik01 concept and giving us a sleek and stylish ride.

So, fellow riders, get ready to embrace the electric revolution with Royal Enfield’s upcoming electric motorcycle. It’s time to turn heads and save the planet at the same time. Keep an eye out for more updates on this electrifying journey!
