On Wednesday, BMW Motorrad officially launched its flagship electric scooter CE 04 in the Indian market. The BMW CE 04, priced at ₹14.90 lakh (ex-showroom), will be available as a completely built-in unit. Deliveries are set to begin in September.
Charging Convenience Options
The BMW CE 04, India’s most expensive electric scooter, features an 8.5 kWh battery pack providing a claimed range of up to 130 kilometers on a single charge. It includes a complimentary 2.3 kW home charger, which charges from 0 to 80% in 3 hours and 30 minutes. Additionally, an optional BMW Wallbox charger is offered for charging convenience.
Impressive Power Specifications
The CE 04 also claimed the title of the highest power-rated electric two-wheeler in the Indian market. Its liquid-cooled, permanent-magnet synchronous motor generates 42 horsepower and 62 Nm of peak torque. The e-scooter achieves a top speed of 120 kmph and accelerates from 0 to 50 kmph in just 2.6 seconds.
BMW CE-04 arrives at ₹14.90 lakh. So about as much as a Nexon EV. Just for perspective.
