The EV Conversion Kit for Hero Splendor bike has been launched in the market and has been approved by the RTO.

Whenever there's a discussion about the highest mileage bikes in India, one name that can't be missed is Hero Splendor. The price and maintenance cost of this bike is so low that it fits comfortably in the budget of the common man. But since the last few weeks, the price of petrol has increased so much that the common man has to think several times before taking it out. Here's something that might get you excited.

The EV Conversion Kit for Hero Splendor bike has been launched in the market. For those who are about to buy Hero Splendor and want to save on petrol, there is now an option for them to save money by installing an electric kit on their favourite bike. The use of this electric kit has also been approved by the RTO. EV startup company GoGoA1 based in Thane, Maharashtra has recently launched it, which is being priced at Rs 35,000.

However, along with the principal amount, you will have to pay GST of Rs 6,300 and you will also have to pay the battery cost separately. Overall, the EV conversion kit and the battery will cost Rs 95,000. This will be an addition to the money you spend to buy a Hero Splendor. In such a situation, the electric Hero Splendor Electric will cost you a lot. However, it will be a one-time investment. 

The company is also offering a 3-year warranty is being given with its kit. According to Rushlane, the GoGoA1 claims that it can run up to 151 km on a single charge.

At present, popular companies in India have not launched such electric bikes, whose fuel variants are being sold heavily. In such a situation, now the company GoGoA1 has put an option in front of the people, which is very expensive. In the coming times, many two-wheeler companies including Hero, Bajaj and Yamaha, Honda will launch electric bikes.
