As the globe witnesses advanced EVs and EV technologies, India gets a unique e-motorbike called ‘Rorr,’ which vows to deliver not just performance but envisages what electric motorcycles may become in the coming future.Rorr is the flagship product of Oben Electric, headquartered in Bengaluru, India. Oben Electric is an electric two-wheeler manufacturer that is committed to designing, developing, and manufacturing e2Ws indigenously. It is focused on bringing reliable, safe, and qualitative electric two-wheelers to the consumer segments of the world that are at par with conventional vehicles.
Rorr is a fresh new take on what
futuristic electric motorcycles ought to be, with a neo-classic design for the
21st century, sleek, and sporty. It is benchmarked against the 150cc ICE
motorcycle segment with the best-in-classrange of 125 miles (Ideal Driving
Conditions), highest acceleration of 0-40 in just 3 seconds, a best-in-class
charging time of just 2 hours, and a top speed of 63 mph.
Besides providing bike riders with
world-class features, Rorr promises practicality and a performance-oriented
riding experience. The electric performance motorcycle has 18 patents filed for
its critical components such as motor, battery, controller, drivetrain, and
design, giving it an edge over the competition. It also has interactive
connected vehicle features such as Predictive maintenance, Ride details,
Battery status, Geo-fencing, Geo-tagging, Battery theft protection, Charging
station locator, On-demand service, and Roadside assistance.
Its Combined Braking System makes the
rider feel safe even at higher speeds and the Rider Alert System provides
riders with visual and auditory cues, showing when the vehicle is ON,
Stationary, or requires Maintenance. Rorr is fitted with LFP (Lithium Ferro
Phosphate) battery, which is a more robust and advanced battery type. Along
with the battery’s efficient heat dissipation and thermal stability capability,
the company has taken the safety factor a notch higher by designing the LFP
battery pack with its very own proprietary- MHX technology, which allows the
heat to be evenly distributed across a larger surface area and ensure maximum
heat exchange with the environment. Hence, keeping the battery pack cool as one
rides the e-motorcycle.
Oben Electric’s ardent team of technical
experts also ensured that Rorr’s connected vehicle feature is continuously
monitoring the health of the battery and the motorcycle. Therefore, even under
the rarest possibility of a compromise (after the above-mentioned safety
factors), the driver shall be alerted instantly. Also, Rorr’s battery pack can
charge at a faster pace viz. two times faster than other electric two-wheelers,
under normal conditions. Rorr has a fun factor to it as well, its
first-in-class gamification feature is set to revolutionize the riders’
engagement with the motorcycle and other Rorr owners. While Rorr is available
only in India for the moment, it will be customized as per consumers for launch
in Southeast Asia, the Middle East, and the USA
