But now, recently Okinawa Scooters has marked its entry into the B2B electric vehicle segment of the country with the launch of its one of a kind electric scooter that is claimed to disrupt the market. The company has recently launched the new Okinawa Dual B2B Electric Scooter in India and it has been priced at Rs. 58,998. Here are all the details about it.

The Okinawa Dual Electric Scooter is designed to carry heavy items such as LPG cylinders, heavy hardware equipment, water cans and also day-to-day usable items like groceries, groceries, medicines, cold storage and more. It gets luggage mounting frame at the front with a large closed box to store small packages while the luggage carrying frame at the rear is designed to carry bulky items. The company is also offering some additional customised accessories such as a delivery box, stackable crates, cylinder carrier, lab on wheels, cold storage box for medicines, etc. that can seamlessly and safely carry products. This electric scooter looks quite funky and unique too and it is available in two colour variants. They are Fire Red and Sunshine Yellow. Also, it comes with a 70 per cent metal body and still has a kerb weight of just 75 kilograms.
Now, if we talk about the mechanicals of this electric scooter, so the new Okinawa Dual B2B Electric Scooter is powered by a 250-watt electric motor that comes coupled to a 48W 55Ah li-ion user-removable battery pack. This electric scooter has a top speed of just 25 kmph and thus you don't need a driving license or any registration to ride it. The company claims that it will offer 120 kilometres of range on a single charge. Also, once the battery pack of the EV is drained, it will require around 4 to 5 hours to fully charge it but the company says that 80 per cent of charge can be achieved in just around 1 hour. The new Okinawa Dual Electric Scooter will be offered as a personal mobility solution too. This variant of the electric scooter comes with a push-type pillion seat and a smaller 48V 28Ah battery pack that will offer a range of just around 60 kms on a single charge. According to the company, it will take around 2 to 3 hours to juice it up but again 80 per cent charge can be achieved in just 45 minutes. However, its price has not been revealed yet.
