Bengaluru, Apr 30: Oben Electric, India’s homegrown R&D-driven electric motorcycle manufacturer, today announced the launch of the all-new Rorr EVO. Designed to mark a clear shift in the category, the Rorr EVO brings together design, performance, and functionality into one cohesive package, redefining what riders can expect from an electric motorcycle.
Built around the idea that riders should not have to choose between thrill and practicality, the Rorr EVO is engineered as a complete, no-compromise motorcycle for real-world riding. It combines aggressive streetfighter design with strong performance and thoughtfully integrated features that make it as engaging to ride as it is easy to live with.
At first glance, the Rorr EVO stands out with its bold, muscular proportions and commanding stance. The front is defined by a projector headlamp with a signature front position lamp, delivering both strong visual identity and enhanced visibility for everyday riding conditions. Sculpted body panels, premium detailing, and a well-balanced silhouette further reinforce its road presence.
Underneath this design is performance built to deliver consistently. The Rorr EVO reaches a top speed of 110 km/h and offers a certified range of 180 km IDC, ensuring it is equally capable for even demanding daily rides. It supports 0–80% fast charging in just 90 minutes with Oben Plug (fast charger), and comes equipped with Oben Port, its onboard charger, for convenient everyday charging.
At the core of this experience is the introduction of SmartIQ, Oben’s new AI ride mode that analyses riding patterns in real time and optimises power delivery to extend range by up to 15%. By automatically adapting to rider behaviour, SmartIQ removes the need for constant manual intervention, making performance and efficiency work seamlessly together.
Powering the motorcycle is an IP68-rated motor, designed, developed, and manufactured in-house by Oben Electric. This is paired with a newly introduced single-stage chain drive, which enhances durability while delivering stronger on-wheel torque and a more direct, engaging riding experience. The Rorr EVO is equipped with Oben’s proprietary 3.4 kWh high-performance LFP battery, engineered for Indian conditions. Offering 50% higher heat resistance and 2X lifecycle compared to conventional lithium-ion batteries, it delivers consistent performance over time while maintaining high levels of safety and reliability. The battery is housed in a high-strength aluminium structure for improved impact resistance and is backed by an 8-year warranty, reinforcing long-term ownership confidence.
This level of engineering is enabled by Oben’s deep vertical integration, where critical components including the motor, battery, charger, display and vehicle control systems along with the entire software and firmware stack are developed entirely in-house. This approach allows for tighter quality control, faster innovation, and a more reliable ownership experience.
Beyond performance, the Rorr EVO sets a new benchmark in practicality within its segment. It features the longest seat in the segment of 680mm, designed as a single unit to enhance both rider and pillion comfort and is one of the most accessible seat heights of 780mm in its class. For the first time in a motorcycle, the Rorr EVO offers 10 liters of total storage, combining under-seat storage and tank pod storage with dual USB charging ports, bringing a level of everyday convenience rarely seen in this category. A reverse mode further improves ease of use in tight urban environments.
A unique combination of seat height of 780 mm along with 200 mm ground clearance, makes it one of the most comfortable and practical motorcycles in the Indian market. Rorr EVO also offers 230 mm water-wading capability, making it well-suited for varied road and weather conditions.
Safety and connectivity are also integral to the Rorr EVO experience. The motorcycle introduces Fall Alert with Emergency Assist, a feature that detects a fall and triggers alerts via the Oben app, notifying emergency contacts if required. Additional safety features include Unified Brake Assist (UBA), Driver Alert System (DAS), secure charge and a wide rear tyre for improved stability.
The Rorr EVO comes equipped with a 5-inch colour TFT display, providing navigation, ride data, and smart alerts for call, text and music. Through the Oben Electric app, riders can access ride history, geo-fencing, remote diagnostics, theft protection, and ‘Find My Rorr’ and 24×7 service support along with access to a 68,000+ charging network, ensuring a fully connected ownership experience.
Commenting on the launch, Madhumita Agrawal, Founder & CEO, Oben Electric, said: “Electric motorcycling in India is entering a new phase, where riders are no longer evaluating electric vehicles as alternatives, but as motorcycles in their own right. Rorr EVO is built on that belief. It is a no-compromise product designed to prove that electric can match and exceed the full spectrum of real-world riding, not selectively, but completely. Rorr EVO is built to make that shift tangible on the road.”
The Rorr EVO is available in four colour options, Pulse Red, Neutron Blue, Magnetic Black, and Photon White, each designed to complement its bold and aggressive character.
The motorcycle is now open for bookings, with test rides and customer deliveries set to begin from June 2026 across Oben’s 150 showrooms nationwide.
