India's 1st Electric cafe racer bike AtumVader launched; priced at Rs 99,999

Atumobile launched AtumVader, India’s first electric cafe racer bike at an early bird price of Rs 99,999. Earlier this month, the Hyderabad-based electric vehicle maker received ARAI's (Automotive Research Association of India) nod for this new cafe racer model. With a 2.4 kWh battery pack, AtumVader offers a range of 100 km on a single charge and a top speed of 65 km/hour.

In October 2020, Atumobile launched its first electric bike -- Atum 1.0 -- which was a low-speed cafe racer model, which has sold over 1,000 units so far, according to a statement.

"We were able to design this electric bike keeping in mind Indian roads, and riders, with the assistance of our R&D experts and in indigenous solar-powered zero-emission facilities, making it a truly green and sustainable electric bike," Vamsi G Krishna, Founder of Atumobile, said.
