TVS is gearing up to showcase a new electric 2-wheeler on August 23.
According to a media report, the BMW CE 02 electric 2-wheeler that made its global debut earlier this month has an Indian connection.
It is said that the EV platform was designed and developed by TVS. If the latest reports are indeed true, then it would be the second platform to spawn from the BMW Motorrad-TVS partnership. Both parties had earlier agreed to collaborate on EVs, and we could also see some of these models making their way into the Indian market.
The BMW CE 02 is powered by a pair of 2 kWh lithium-ion batteries paired with a 15 BHP electric motor. The e-bike has a top speed of 95 km/h and can travel up to 90 km on a single charge. BMW also offers a single battery version with a top speed of 45 km/h and a range of 45 km.
Both versions can be charged using either a 0.9 kW standard charger, which takes 5 hours 12 mins to charge both batteries from 0 – 100%. The BMW CE 02 is also compatible with a 1.5 kW fast charger, bringing down charging time to 3 hours 30 mins.
We know that TVS is gearing up to showcase a new electric 2-wheeler on August 23. The company claims it would “defy the status quo in mobility”. Whether it would be TVS’ version of the CE 02 remains to be seen.
