Tork Motors launches electric bike T6X priced at Rs 1.25 lakh

Electric motorcycle maker Tork Motors today launched its first model T6X at a promotional price of Rs 1.25 lakh.
Powered by lithium ion batteries, the T6X can reach a top speed of 100 kmph and runs 100 km on a single charge, Tork Motors said in a statement.
The battery can be charged up to 80 per cent in an hour and fully charged in two hours. Depending upon the usage of the bike, the battery life can last up to approximately 80,000 - 1,00,000 kms, it added.
Tork Motors Founder and Director Kapil Shelke said the conducive policy framework is firing up growth in the EV segment.

"Declining lithium ion battery prices, that have gone down by approximately 50 per cent over the last 3 years, has enabled us to work upon a competitive price point for T6X. We are looking at selling close to 5,000-10,000 units each year for the first three years," he added.
The company said T6X will be introduced in three markets of Pune, Bengaluru and Delhi in the first phase. It is working towards building a robust charging infrastructure in the target markets.
The brand has already set up six charging points in Pune and aims to take the number to 100 by December 2016 in the city.
