LML is all set to return to the Indian market with a futuristic electric scooter!
LML, once a household name, disappeared from the Indian two-wheeler industry when they filed for bankruptcy back in 2017. The manufacturer is all set to make a strong comeback in the market within the ever-growing electric two-wheeler segment with the Star electric scooter.
LML Star
The LML Star is a stylish and futuristic looking electric scooter. The scooter gets a contemporary design which is dominated by a single LED headlight at the front which is behind a smoked screen. Below the headlight is the LML badging which is actually a digital panel which can display other things as well such as a smiley or anything word which you want to display. The front fascia is completed by LED DRLs on either side. The scooter has sharp and angular panels on the sides and the rear, a single piece seat, and split grab rails.
LML has yet not revealed the specs of the electric scooter but we know a few things about it. The LML Star could have a swappable battery located under the floorboard. The suspension setup consists of a telescopic fork and a monoshock. It will get disc brakes at both ends and will be driven by a belt drive. The image also reveals that the scooter will have a TFT display to show all the necessary information. Other features include, front and back cameras, automatic headlamp, and an adjustable seat which can be operated by a button, though how the seat will be adjustable we will get to know once the scooter is launched.
