EMotorad Elite Nighthawk e-Bike: Same Price Other Options

Smooth middleweight supersports to mad electric bikes, you’ve multiple options

EMotorad unveiled its Elite range of e-bikes, among which was the Nighthawk that carries a Rs 5 lakh price tag and raised a lot of eyebrows. So, if spending that kind of amount on an electric bicycle isn’t your thing, here’s a list of three other motorcycles you can buy for a similar amount: 

Kawasaki Ninja 400- 5.14 lakh (ex-showroom India) 

The Kawasaki Ninja 400 has arguably been the best bike in the sub-400cc segment. For just Rs 15,000 more than the Nighthawk, you can get yourself a refined, versatile and tried-and-tested parallel twin sportbike from Kawasaki that is perhaps the best sub-400cc supersport on sale. Suddenly this Ninja doesn’t seem overpriced, eh? 

Ultraviolette Recon- Rs 4.55 lakh (ex-showroom) 

If you insist on electrics, no other bike in India sounds as exciting as the Ultraviolette F77. Its Recon variant, costing a whole Rs 45,000 less than the Nighthawk, can cover a claimed range of 307km and hit 147kmph tops. 

Benelli Leoncino 500- Rs 5.45 lakh (ex-showroom) 

A rugged scrambler-style bike that looks beautiful, packs premium underpinnings and a friendly engine? The Benelli Leoncino 500, for which you’ll be shelling out an extra Rs 45,000, nails all those aspects and hence demands your attention.
