BMW Motorrad recently launched the CE 02 in India. The BMW CE 02, which shares its base with the TVS X electric scooter, is priced at Rs 4.5 lakh ex-showroom. This makes it significantly less expensive than the BMW CE 04, BMW Motorrad’s first electric two-wheeler released in India. It’s important to note that the CE 02 will be the German company’s first electric two-wheeler produced in India.

The simple yet practical approach has been applied when it comes to the features list as well. To begin with, it features a 3.5-inch TFT instrument cluster which displays the speed, range, battery level and riding mode, among other important data. In regard to riding modes, the BMW CE 02 comes with two built-in settings: “Flow,” which is the same as eco and “Surf,” which is similar to normal.
The 142-kilogram BMW CE 02 is supported by a double-loop tubular steel frame. The electric two-wheeler has telescopic forks up front and a directly linked shock absorber with an adjustable spring base at the rear, both mounted on 14-inch die-cast aluminium wheels.
The PMS air-cooled electric motor powers the BMW CE 02. The BMW CE 02 is available with two different battery pack options: an 11 kW (14.7 bhp) option and a 4 kW (5.3 bhp) option. In India, the two-wheeler is equipped with two 1.96 kWh battery packs, which allow it to generate 14.7 bhp and 55 Nm of torque, with a claimed range of 108 km on a single charge.
As per the company, the two-wheeler can reach a high speed of 95 kmph and can accelerate from a standstill to 50 kmph in 3 seconds.
