It looks like Kinetic is gearing up to introduce a new version of its popular E Luna moped in the coming months. The company has registered a fresh design, and all signs point to an upcoming launch in India.
Update
A recently leaked patent image gives away a major update. While the design looks nearly identical to the E Luna currently on sale, there’s a clear addition—a large box between the handlebar and the rider’s seat. This box is likely housing a second battery, and that could be a game-changer.
Range
At present, the E Luna comes with a 2kWh battery that offers a claimed range of 110km on a single charge. With the potential addition of a second battery, the moped might be able to double that figure. A 200km range would put the E Luna in a whole new league, especially for urban and semi-urban users looking for budget-friendly, long-range EVs.
Battery
What’s also interesting is the possibility of the new battery being removable. If that’s the case, it could significantly improve convenience, allowing users to swap batteries or charge them indoors. That setup might also bring the total charging time to around 4 hours, making it practical for daily use.
Launch
While Kinetic hasn’t officially confirmed the launch timeline, the festive season is usually when brands like to drop new models. So, it’s safe to assume that we might see this upgraded E Luna hitting showrooms around Diwali this year.
