Okinawa PraisePro Electric Scooter Launched In India

The new electric scooter is slotted between the Praise and the I-Praise+ 

• The Okinawa PraisePro gets a detachable lithium-ion battery. 
• The company claims that the battery can be charged in just 2-3 hours. 
• Top speed is limited to 65kmph-70kmph. 
• Gets features such as an anti-theft alarm, a USB port, and more. 

Okinawa has launched a new electric scooter called the PraisePro. Priced at Rs 71,990, the new e-scooter is positioned between the Praise and the I-Praise+, which are priced at Rs 65,430 and Rs 1.08 lakh, respectively (all prices, ex-showroom). 

The PraisePro shares most of its features like central locking with an anti-theft alarm, keyless entry and a USB charging port with the base-spec model. While the Praise is offered with three dual-tone paint options, the new variant is available with just two single-tone colours - red and black. 

However, the major change between the two is the battery unit. While the standard model gets a lead-acid unit, the mid-spec variant comes equipped with a lithium-ion battery, which is detachable and can be charged in 2-3 hours (claimed) via a normal wall socket. This feature is similar to what we have seen on the Revolt RV 400. The electric-scooter has an ARAI-certified range of 110km in Eco mode and 88km in Sports mode. Powering the PraisePro is a BLDC motor with a power output of 2500W. Okinawa claims that the e-scooter has a top speed of 65kmph-70kmph in Turbo mode. 

If you are planning to buy the PraisePro or any other Okinawa scooter, then we have some good news for you. Last month, the manufacturer had announced that it is offering various discounts on its models. However, it is a limited period offer and is valid until 31 October 2019.
