Speaking about the upcoming ETryst 350, Rohit Vadera, Co-Founder and CEO, Pure EV said, "With the launch of ETryst 350, we want to make a mark in the domestic EV industry. The model will be launched at a competitive price point with respect to the premium motorcycles and we are consistently working on upgrading our after-sales service network which is the key requirement to sustain higher sales in the EV industry. We have taken multiple steps in the past few months for enhancement of the service capabilities by the invention of devices like Batrics Faraday which provides remote battery service capability and comprehensive technicians training programs."  

The ETryst 350 will be comparable to commuter motorcycles in terms of power and performance, according to the company. Pure EV will first launch the bike in metro cities including Bengaluru, Hyderabad, and Pune, following which the model will be rolled out into more outlets by 2021. The e-motorcycle will be produced at the company's manufacturing facility in Hyderabad. The ETryst 350 will have a top speed of 85 kmph with quick initial acceleration.
