Elctrik Speaks
The inclusion of NFC unlocking in an electric cycle indicates a shift toward integrating connected features in this segment. The specifications place the Viper within the growing category of utility-focused electric cycles in India, where range, battery capacity, and multi-mode riding are becoming standard considerations.
Kunal Gupta, Co-founder and CEO of EMotorad, said, “Why should everyday commuting feel restrictive or uninspiring? With Viper, we wanted to challenge that idea and build something that delivers both performance and presence in a single ride. Whether it’s the first-in-segment NFC key or the moto-style frame, the Viper is designed for riders who are looking for control and expression in their everyday experience, and reflects how our customers are evolving beyond just getting from point A to point B.”
