Airtel Launches Electric Cycle: In a surprising move, India’s telecom giant Airtel has stepped into the electric mobility sector by launching its first Electric Bicycle in 2025. The cycle has been priced aggressively at ₹7,999, and what truly stands out is its massive 280KM range on a single charge along with a top speed of 45 km/h.
The Airtel Electric Cycle is designed for urban and semi-urban mobility needs and is being positioned as an affordable yet powerful solution for students, office commuters, and last-mile delivery riders.
🚲 Massive 280KM Range – Never Worry About Charging Again
While most electric cycles in India offer 50 to 100KM of range, Airtel’s cycle breaks all limits. Thanks to its advanced triple-cell lithium battery technology, it delivers up to 280 kilometers range in pedal-assist mode.
Even in throttle-only mode, users can expect over 150KM of real-world range.
This makes it ideal for:
Long daily commutes
Remote village-to-city travel
Delivery executives
Students and workers in towns without charging points nearby
⚡ Speed & Power Without Compromise
Equipped with a 250W high-torque BLDC motor, the cycle delivers smooth acceleration with a maximum speed of 45 km/h. It supports both throttle mode and pedal-assist, giving riders complete flexibility.
With front and rear disc brakes, and dual suspension, it’s built to handle Indian road conditions effectively.
🔋 Fast Charging – Full Battery in Just 1.5 Hours
The cycle supports fast charging technology and can go from 0 to 100% in just 1.5 hours using its proprietary smart charger. The removable battery can be charged at home or even in your office.
Battery life is estimated at over 1000 charge cycles, offering at least 4–5 years of usage without major replacement costs.
