New BMW CE 02 e-scooter launched in India at Rs 4.50 lakh
BMW Motorrad India has introduced its new electric scooter, the CE 02, priced at Rs 4,49,900 (introductory, ex-showroom). The scooter is being assembled locally at TVS Motor Company's facility in Tamil Nadu, having been imported as a Completely Knocked Down (CKD) unit. Positioned below the previously launched CE 04, the CE 02 brings a unique design and urban-focused riding capabilities to the market.
The BMW CE 02 is equipped with two removable 1.96 kWh battery packs, providing an ICAT-certified range of 108 km on a full charge. These batteries power an electric motor that produces 15 PS of power and 55 Nm of torque, enabling the scooter to accelerate from 0 to 50 km/h in a claimed three seconds. The top speed of the CE 02 is limited to 95 km/h.
The CE 02 comes with two standard riding modesâ€"Flow and Surf. An optional Highline package unlocks an additional Flash mode, which offers more aggressive power delivery and quicker acceleration. The standard charger takes over five hours to charge the batteries from 0 to 100%, while an optional faster charger, available with the Highline package, significantly reduces the charging time.
