OBEN is an EV startup that manufactures premium e-scooters
Basic Information
Madhumita Agrawal and Dinkar Agrawal launched OBEN Electric Pvt. Ltd. in August 2020. Its product, the premium e-scooter OBEN, is ready to roll out after July 2022. The brand claims that their product is a unisex scooter, suitable for men, women, and families. A dealer system is still yet to evolve for EVs because there’s not much of maintenance cost or after-sales revenue from the consumer. So, OBEN is looking at franchise models to move forward, and later a dealership model. Some of the e-scooter’s other features include a 110 kilometer range, Swaptech technology which ensures fast charging of the battery, and a top speed of 90 km/h.
