Chennai-based electric vehicle start-up Raptee Energy has rolled out its first production-ready e-motorcycle from its manufacturing plant.
The start-up states its assembly line in Chennai is now fully operational, with the company gearing up for the commercial launch expected within this quarter. The first batch of motorcycles will undergo rigorous testing and homologation processes, including ARAI certification and on-road safety checks, to ensure they meet the highest standards of quality and performance.
Furthermore, Raptee plans to open its first store in its Chennai facility. This store will not only serve as a point of sale but also offer consumers a comprehensive brand experience, including a walkthrough of the manufacturing facility to see the motorcycles being crafted.
