Tork Motor EV: Redefining Power and Efficiency in Electric Vehicles
The
Electric Vehicles
and the adjective “powerful performance” has been seen as an oxymoron for a long time. However, with the current advancement in the Indian EV industry, both words complement each other in juxtaposition. This advancement and revolution in the field of automobiles is well reflected in the ambitions of Tork Motors and its CEO Kapil Shelke who from his early childhood wanted to take electric vehicles to a legendary level.By keeping his eyes on the most challenging track and racing event– The Isle of Man, Kapil along with his dedicated team of engineers started to develop an
electric vehicle bike
which could carry his ambitions on the notorious circuit.The hard work of the team paid off as their in-house-built
electric bike
T2X bagged the third podium price in the race. Although the journey is interesting in itself, it holds a larger question i.e. what defines the powers and efficiency of Tork motors that can serve as an example for the other electric vehicle companies? Let's find out.Although manufacturing an electric bike with a race-oriented approach may differ from the commercial manufacturing approach, Tork Motors has been successful in keeping a perfect balance between the two.
Domestic-
Tork Motors has formulated a Make/Develop in India strategy for global markets. The company boasts of being one of the few domestic producers in India which uses Axial Flux Technology's benefits for a commercial two-wheeler. With this technology, the company has been able to attain an astounding 90%–96% efficiency range. Tork Motor’s innovative technology is small, quiet, scalable, economical, and designed with the best possible system integration for providing peak performance to the riders.

efficiency is largely dependent on the functioning of its powertrain. While understanding the importance of an efficient powertrain, the Tork motors have equipped its electric bike with a 2-speed Gearbox that can power two-wheelers and may also be customised for three-wheelers, allowing for on-the-fly shifting, clutch, and synchro. However, this is made for application-specific use. The Tork motor electric vehicle also exhibits an integrated design connecting motor, gearbox, and controller altogether making the design a space-saving solution with hassle-free serviceability.Power-
Being an innovator of a next-generation powertrain, Tork Motors designs its electric bike to perform exceptionally well in challenging conditions. This commitment to versatile technology is incorporated into the Tork electric bike fleet, allowing for excellent-grade climbing capabilities and smooth navigation of uneven terrain. With a peak power output that may range from 7.5kW to 9kW, the engine provides more than enough propulsion for any circumstance. Moreover, its remarkable torque range of 25 Nm to 40 Nm guarantees constant power delivery, even at lower speeds that are usually found on difficult inclines. With a 5000–7000 RPM operating range and this mix of power and torque, you can drive dynamically over any type of terrain.
Precision Engineering
The true environment-friendliness of a company is not only defined by the usage of its production but by the methods the company has achieved production. Taking the environmental impact, cost of production and many other factors into concern,
Tork Motors Electric Vehicles
manufactures its felt electric bike through guided and precision engineering. The company’s powertrain is expertly engineered to provide impressive efficiency and powerful performance without sacrificing performance.Application-Specific Testing
Well evident in Tork Motor’s heritage, application-based testing is a crucial part of the pre-launch sequence in any
Tork electric bike
. The company ensure the safety of the rider while guaranteeing optimal and dependable performance of their electric bike. Moreover, the company also claims that its powertrain has undergone extensive testing in real-world environments making its rides more dependable than other options in the market.“Tork Motor Kratos R” full Range test video -

From the Isle of Man to Indian Roads
Currently, Tork Motors offers only one electric bike i.e. the
Tork Kratos R
which comes with a top speed of 105km/hr and can travel up to 180 km in a single charge. The vehicle features a 4kwhr battery that can accelerate from 0-40km/h in just 3.5 seconds. Well, now you know how this innovative bike won the title in the “Isle of Man”. Moreover, the racing journey experience of the founder has not just stopped there, the expertise of Tork has also been tested on various European racing tracks where the company has emerged victorious.Following the events, the subsequent creation of the Tork T4X and T6X racing motorcycles solidified Tork Motors' position on the global map of electric motorcycling. It would not be wrong to claim that Indian roads are no less challenging than a racing track and now it has to be observed how the company will perform to cater the domestic needs of the riders.
