Yo Bikes to launch 1000 W version of its electric bike
Buoyant by the demand of its 750 W electric bike ' YO Speed', Electrotherm India is planning to introduce a 1000 W version of the e-bike.
According to Avinash Bhandari, Director, Electrotherm India, they prefer to modify existing models. Their Research & Development team keeps updating technologies. The success of the 75 cc model has encouraged them to enter higher segments.
He also added that customers have accepted electric vehicle technology. Electrotherm has sold around 10,000 e-bike units in less than a year.
They have sold more than 50,000 units across the country in 2007. The company also plans to export these bikes. Initially, it will be to neighbouring countries like Nepal, Bangladesh and Sri Lanka.
