Context
Why does this story matter?
EVTRIC's first motorcycle in India flaunts a Hero Glamour-inspired look and offers decent performance. It should draw the attention of a lot of buyers in our market. The vehicle has been priced competitively and rivals the likes of Revolt RV400, Tork Kratos, and Oben Rorr. The rivalry in the electric two-wheeler segment should be raised to a great extent.
