The HOP OXO and Hop OXO-X electric bikes have just been introduced to the Indian market by HOP Electric, one of the premier electric two-wheeler companies in the nation, with pricing beginning at Rs 1.25 lakh, ex-showroom. Customers interested in purchasing these electric motorcycles can do so online or at their local HOP Experience Center. HOP Electric Mobility asserts that it is attempting to revolutionise the Indian EV sector with these bikes. The HOP OXO and OXO-X have a very recognisable and conventional appearance in terms of design, making them potentially more appealing to a wider range of consumers.
According to Ketan Mehta, CEO and Founder of HOP Electric Mobility, “Electric is sweeping the Indian market. Consumer preferences for convenient, inexpensive, sustainable mobility alternatives are driving this expansion. The most innovative e-bike on the market, the HOP OXO, is the culmination of years of research and development, field testing, and labour from hundreds of HOP employees. As 5000 pre-launch registrations have already been done by our dealer partners, we anticipate great hypergrowth in this market. Our efforts to significantly improve our product offering are ongoing.
