Battery can charge 80% in just 45 minutes
Praise has an advanced and safe charging system. It is powered by a 45Ah lithium-ion battery, which has a 2,000-cycle lifespan. The removable 9kg battery can be charged separately or while fitted in the e-scooter. Okinawa claims it takes only 45 minutes to get a charge of 80%; it runs 170-200km on a single charge. The battery also has a three-year replacement warranty.
Praise comes in three speed modes
Praise is propelled driven by a high-phase BLDC motor with a maximum output of 2,500 watts. The water-resistant motor offers three different speed modes: Economy (35kmph), Sporty (65kmph), and the best-in-class Turbo (75kmph). The motor's torque output ranges from 18-40Nm for quick acceleration.
Praise's unique features make it a desirable option
Okinawa's Praise features a fully-digital instrument console, adjustable brake levers, and LED lights. It runs on a set of stylish 12-inch alloy wheels and also has gas-charged dual rear shock-absorbers coupled with telescopic front suspensions, ensuring a comfortable ride. Its unique safety features include dual front disc brakes, single rear disc brake, E-ABS (Electronic-Assisted Braking System), and a side-stand safety sensor.
Praise can be booked at 100 dealerships
Praise is the second e-scooter launched by Okinawa in the country, the first being the Ridge priced at Rs. 43,702. Bookings for the Praise e-scooter started last month on 24 November.
