Does Buying An E-Bike Make Any Sense?
Ninety One mentioned that this is the perfect commuter vehicle for anyone looking to ride 30 to 40 km per day. Mainly targeting the ever-evolving India’s millennials and Gen-Z population, this vehicle aims to disrupt the E-bike segment. Under the philosophy of ‘make-in-India, made-for-the-world’, Ninety One is all prepared to enter the highly competitive Indian two-wheeler industry. Given the growing sentiment to opt for personal vehicles, these E-bikes are the most affordable alternative. Being electric also helps curtail the cost. And at the same time, they also provide the features of a conventional mechanical cycle. This product will perfectly resonate with someone looking for an affordable commuter at the same time, and act as a fitness tool as well.
