PluginIndia's Take
We spoke to the PURE EV team and they said the ETRANCE NEO is a surprise from PURE EV to the Indian EV market. And indeed this sudden reveal of a new model took us by surprise. So essentially, PURE EV has 2 high speed power electric scooters and 2 low speed economy electric scooters.
Also the PURE Lithium battery seems to be standardized across the four models. ETRANCE Plus has an upgraded battery with capacity of 1.8 KWH Battery like ePluto. ETRANCE Neo will have the same battery (2.5 kWh) used by the ePluto 7g. This actually is a good thing as dealers will be happy as their spare inventory on the battery will come down and clients having different models also can help each other in the case of breakdown or during battery swaps. So essentially PURE EV now has two proven battery packs in production, serving four different models.
We are excited by PURE EV's rapid progress in the electric scooter market and look forward to more from this awesome team.
