MATTER launches e-bike Aera in Bengaluru
MATTER Motor Works, an electric mobility start-up, has launched a geared electric motorbike, AERA, in Bengaluru.
This e-bike is 'purpose-built for the Indian rider and fine-tuned for a city like Bengaluru', the company said.
Mohal Lalbhai, founder and group CEO of MATTER, said, 'There's no better city to lead this journey than Bengaluru, where innovation isn't just an idea, it's a way of life.'
AERA is backed by an in-house developed Hypershift manual gearbox, a 4-speed manual transmission in an EV, paired with 3 ride modes: Eco, City and Sport to deliver 12 unique ride combinations, said the company.
The bike also has a liquid-cooled powertrain with advanced liquid cooling on both motor and battery pack for better efficiency in hot, high-traffic conditions. Its 5kWh battery offers a range of 172 km per charge, according to the company's release.
