Iconic Kinetic DX to make a comeback in India on July 28, to come as an electric scooter

Kinetic DX is one of the iconic scooters in India that is ready to make a comeback in the country, and this time in a pure electric guise. The Kinetic Green DX is slated for debut on July 28, 2025. This is going to be Kinetic's second attempt at reviving a legacy nameplate after the brand announced that it will bring the E-Luna, which will be an all-electric avatar of the iconic moped. While Kinetic has already patented the E-Luna in India ahead of the electric moped's slated launch in India during the festive season this year, the auto company has teased the DX electric scooter ahead of its debut next Monday. The original Kinetic DX scooter was built between 1984 and 2007 by a joint venture between India's Kinetic Engineering and Japan's Honda Motor Company. The Kinetic DX was actually based on the Honda NH Series scooters and powered by a 98 cc two-stroke, air-cooled engine. However, the new one will be a complete departure from that as it will come as an all-electric model instead. Kinetic Green, a subsidiary of the Kinetic Group, had recently submitted the design patent for the new DX electric scooter. The design patent application of the EV reveals a striking resemblance to the original Kinetic Honda DX. Visually, it looks almost identical, except for the new Kinetic Green logo on the front apron and a rectangular LED headlamp cluster that gets the same design but with fresh LED DRLs. Side panels have been changed to look like the original model, and the rear profile comes with a new grab rail, as compared to the spare tyre, which used to be found on the original model. The 'Kinetic' logo is displayed on the flyscreen of the design patent, as compared to the 'Kinetic Honda' on the original scooter. Kinetic has kept the technical details under wraps. However, expect the model to be a family-focused EV with a good blend of performance and range. There are no details on the launch of the EV as of now, but we look forward to Kinetic releasing more information in the near future. Upon launch, it will challenge rivals such as Bajaj Chetak, Ather Rizta, TVS iQube, Ola S1 X, etc.

New Delhi: Electric vehicle maker Kinetic Green on Friday said it plans to expand its business with the launch of three e-scooters over the next 18 months. The first of the three new products is expected to be launched around the festive season this year, the Pune-based firm said in a statement.

Having joined hands with Torino Design, the company aims to redefine electric scooters in the coming months, she added.

Kinetic's big return story! Three new e-scooters by Kinetic Green

Kinetic Green has announced a major expansion plan to strengthen its electric two-wheeler business. The company revived the iconic Luna model in a new electric avatar last year and has been retailing it in both personal and commercial markets. Building on this, the manufacturer now plans to roll out three new electric scooters over the next 18 months. Here's a quick look at the key details around this expansion. Kinetic Green expansion: Key highlights The first model, a family e-scooter, will arrive ahead of the 2025 festive season. The company says that it will feature a retro-inspired design with modern features like a TFT screen, fast-charging options, and IoT integration co-developed with Jio Things.
