Simple Energy One News

The Bengaluru-based EV start-up recently opened five new showrooms across Delhi, Nashik, Aurangabad and Siliguri.

With the Simple Store in Siliguri, Simple Energy has expanded its pan-India presence to 63 outlets, including Bengaluru, Delhi, Patna, Goa, Hyderabad, Kochi and Chennai.

With a series of changes made to the existing scooter, the start-up claims to have improved range, top speed as well as on-road behaviour of the Simple One.

Patent images suggest it to be a family-oriented electric scooter.

The Dot One was unveiled on December 15, wearing an introductory price tag of Rs 99,999 – but only for those who already held Simple One bookings.

With not even 50 units of the Simple One electric scooter on the roads, a new, cheaper scooter is being pitched to seemingly keep interest alive.

The Simple Dot One electric scooter will slot in below the flagship One model, but will still cost in excess of Rs 1 lakh.

Having taken well over a year and a half to put its maiden electric scooter into production, the EV start-up only delivered a handful of scooters in Bengaluru on June 6.

While prices were originally announced back in 2021, deliveries have seen notable delays since

Simple Energy has announced that it will begin deliveries of the Simple One electric scooter in the first quarter of 2023.
