Airtel Electric Cycle: India’s tech and telecom giant Airtel has surprised the market by entering the electric mobility space with the launch of its first Electric Cycle in 2025. The Airtel Electric Cycle has been launched at a starting price of just ₹7,999, making it one of the most affordable smart cycles in the country.
Positioned as an eco-friendly mobility solution for students, daily commuters, and fitness lovers, this cycle blends performance, affordability, and smart features in one compact package.
Performance-Focused Features
Despite the low price, the Airtel Electric Cycle doesn’t compromise on power. It offers a top speed of 45 km/h and supports a riding range of up to 78 kilometers on a single full charge, making it ideal for both city travel and campus rides.
The cycle features a 250W BLDC hub motor and 36V lithium-ion battery, optimized for longer life and consistent performance. It supports both pedal-assist and throttle-based riding modes.
