Bengaluru-based electric motorcycle maker Oben Electric has announced its new platform that will underpin a new range of affordable electric motorcycles. The upcoming Oben 'O100' platform will spawn a new sub ₹ 1 lakh electric bike, an equivalent to the entry-level 100 cc commuter motorcycles. This will be Oben's second indigenous platform after the ARX.
New Oben O100 Platform to underpin electric commuter bikes
The Oben O100 platform has been developed in-house at the brand's R&D centre in Bengaluru. The company says its new platform will be modular and will be able to support multiple variants and battery options, which will be tailored to different customer segments. The new platform is also said to be future-ready and will allow 'seamless integration of emerging technologies and infrastructure upgrades."
Madhumita Agrawal, Founder and CEO, Oben Electric said, 'At Oben Electric, we design and build with intent - to solve real-world mobility challenges. Our new platform, O100 is engineered for India's mass daily commuters and aims to make electric motorcycles a practical reality for every Indian. Leveraging our proprietary LFP battery technology and other critical components including motor, VCU, and chargers, all developed and manufactured in-house, we've built a robust, vertically integrated foundation for a new generation of electric motorcycles, accelerating EV adoption across urban and rural India alike."
Oben has been aggressively expanding its presence across India in Tier I, II, and III markets. The company plans to cross over 100 outlets by the end of the year. The new platform should help the electric bike maker achieve a boost in sales.
Oben is working on its second new platform developed in-house.
At present, Oben Electric retails two offerings - the Rorr and Rorr EZ e-bikes. Both models are based on the ARK platform and share the same underpinnings albeit with a few changes. While the Oben Rorr is a flagship offering, the upcoming commuter e-bikes will be a lot more basic and are set to arrive towards the second half of the year. More details should be available in the coming weeks.

Elon Musk has announced his exit from DOGE – the task force established earlier this year to cut federal spending. In a post on Twitter (now X), Musk said that his scheduled time as a Special Government Employee has come to an end. Announcing his exit, Musk thanked President Donald Trump for the opportunity to run the Department of Government Efficiency . In his goodbye note, the tech billionaire wrote that DOGE mission will continue to strengthen over time as it becomes a way of life throughout the government. — elonmusk (@elonmusk) What Elon Musk said on his exit from DOGE Here's what Musk's post on X reads: by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like One of the Most Successful Investors of All Time, Warren Buffett, Recommends: 5 Books for Turning...

The @DOGE mission will only strengthen over time as it becomes a way of life throughout the government.' Elon Musk exits DOGE earlier than expected Musk was appointed as a Special Government Employee by the Trump administration to work a federal job for 130 days each year. Had he stayed, the limit would have been reached by late May, based on Trump's January 20 inauguration. His exit comes just one day after he voiced "disappointment" with the president's budget plan, which features sweeping tax cuts and expanded military spending. Elon Musk said he is 'disappointed' with One Big Beautiful Bill In an interview with CBS scheduled to air on June 1, Musk said 'I was disappointed to see the massive spending bill, which increases the budget deficit, not just decrease it, and undermines the work that the DOGE team is doing.' 'I think a bill can be big or it can be beautiful, but I don't know if it could be both,' he added. The "One Big Beautiful Bill Act" (H.R.1) was recently passed by the U.S. House of Representatives on May 22, 2025, by a narrow 215–214 vote. The bill aims to make permanent the successful 2017 Trump tax cuts and includes critical pro-growth policies that will cut taxes by an additional $1,300 for a family of four and deliver higher wages and incomes for millions of Americans.
