Kabira’s EV range of six two-wheelers has been widened with the addition of the new EV motorcycles-KM 3000 and KM 4000.
The KM 3000 is a fully-faired sports-tourer with a top speed of 100 km/hr and has the riding range of 120 km on a single charge, claimed the company. The KM 4000, a street bike with naked design elements, is the fastest electric bike to meet the Indian market with a top speed of 120 km/hr and a riding range of 160 km on a single charge.
The heart of the matter- the 4.4 kW battery- comes with a three-year warranty and is also fireproof.
Additionally, through the KM mobile application, an owner can view charge cycles, battery temperature, battery score, and battery capacity used. There are two modes of charging: Eco mode and Boost mode. The first is more suited for overnight charging requiring 6 hours for a full charge; the latter takes two hours to charge fully.
Both new bikes are equipped with a digital instrument cluster featuring Bluetooth connectivity, optional riding modes, and motor power indicator. Similarly, both motorcycles reach 0-40 km/hr in under 3 seconds and share the same DeltaEV Smart FOC Controller to regulate speed.
The riding modes include Eco, City, and Sports. The Anti-Theft is a practical feature that locks up the wheel on any unauthorized movement.
The recently-launched motorcycles are part of Kabira’s Phase 1 plan to commence operations in Delhi, Mumbai, Bangalore, Pune, and Hyderabad. Phase 2 will include 50 major cities in India and is expected to kick-off in August 2021.
The pricing of the two EV’s is Rs. 1,26,990/- (ex-showroom) for the KM 3000 and the KM 4000 is Rs. 10,000/- costlier at Rs. 1,36,990/- (ex-showroom).

Jawa Yezdi Motorcycles is significantly expanding its digital retail strategy by launching on e-commerce platform Amazon, following its successful debut on Flipkart last year. This move is part of the brand’s push to reshape how consumers purchase premium motorcycles in India, particularly ahead of the crucial festive season.
The brand's motorcycles are now available for purchase on Amazon across over 40 cities, with plans to rapidly increase this reach to more than 100 cities.
Jawa Yezdi claims it pioneered the online sale of high-performance 350cc classic motorcycles when it partnered with Flipkart in October 2024. The brand says this initial move not only established a new premium-classic motorcycle category in e-commerce but also set a new industry benchmark.
Sharad Agarwal, Chief Business Officer, Classic Legends, "We went into e-commerce a year back with the simple belief: If our young consumers did not hesitate to book a holiday or buy a car online, then they should be able to own a Jawa or Yezdi the same way. Starting with Flipkart and now expanding to Amazon, we're making the ownership journey easier and more transparent while keeping the soul of motorcycling intact."
Furthermore, the company has also expanded its dealer network to over 450 touchpoints across India.
The models which are retailing on both Amazon and Flipkart include the Jawa 350, 42, 42 FJ, 42 Bobber, Perak and the Yezdi Adventure Single Headlight. Additionally, Amazon has listed the Yezdi Scrambler.
