Confirmed: Luna Is Coming Back In An Electric Avatar!

The e-Luna is expected to make its debut in 2023

Original Kinetic Luna used for representational purpose

We had earlier reported that the iconic Luna is making a comeback in an electric avatar, and now the news has been confirmed by Kinetic Green. In a tweet, Sulajja Firodia Motwani, founder & CEO, Kinetic Green, has confirmed that the e-Luna will be making its debut soon.

Details are scarce at the moment, though we expect the Kinetic Green e-Luna to be a workhorse just like the original one. Think of it as an electric alternative to the TVS XL 100. So, Kinetic Green wouldn’t be prioritising the Luna’s performance as much as its range and more importantly, its load-carrying capacity.

That said, we don’t expect it to be a low-speed e-scooter but pack enough performance to achieve a top speed of 50kmph to make it eligible for FAME-II subsidy. And given the purpose it would be built for, the Kinetic Green e-Luna could have a range of around 100km. Moreover, it may have swappable batteries, rather than fast-charging, making it more suited for B2B applications.

• IPL Stars: Ashish Nehra, Mohit Sharma and Rashid Khan Spotted Having Fun On The Ather e-Scooter
• Honda’s Cute Little E-Scooters Patented In India

Yes, the e-Luna would be primarily catering to business owners so it is likely that Kinetic Green will have a modular structure for this product. So bits like a top box, carriers or ice boxes may be some of the options.

Considering that company has now officially revealed the name, it won’t be long before the iconic moped makes its debut in India. In fact, Kinetic Green could launch the e-Luna as early as July 2023, with a price tag of Rs 80,000 to Rs 90,000. Yes, it would be slightly on the expensive side considering the revisions in the FAME-II subsidy. So, stay tuned for more updates on the return of yet another icon from the past.
