Simple One Electric Scooter Specifications

The updated Simple One electric scooter model gets an additional battery pack over the standard One and gets a quoted range of 300km. The scooter now produces 72 Nm of torque, which is among the highest in the segment. In comparison, the standard range model gets up to 235km without the additional battery pack. This additional battery pack can be carried in the boot, which has a total capacity of 30 litres. The Simple One comes with an 8.5 kW motor that is capable of hauling two passengers from point A to B without any issues.

Other features include a large TFT display with onboard navigation, different riding modes, a phone app, call, reverse mode, music control, anti-theft alarm, geo-fencing and much more.

Commenting on launch, Suhas Rajkumar, CEO and founder of Simple Energy, said:

When we conceived the Simple One, we had the aim of offering an electric scooter that could offer enough range for users to not have to worry about range or charging. Offering an extra battery will allow power users to reach destinations that no other electric two-wheeler in India can. This additional battery can easily fit in the boot of the scooter offering a range of over 300 km. This is a big milestone – not just for Simple Energy, but for the EV industry. This move will also go a long way in bolstering the perception of electric scooters.
