Raptee T30 Electric Motorcycle launched, Blending Electric Car DNA with Two-Wheeler Thrills!

The electric two-wheeler market in India is facing an unprecedented disruption with the launch of the Raptee T30, priced aggressively at ₹2,39,000 (Ex-Showroom). This new electric motorcycle is a formidable challenger to current segment leaders like the Ultraviolette, Ola Roadster, Tork Kratos, Revolt BlazeX, Matter Aera, and Oben Rorr. Raptee has taken a pioneering step by integrating High Voltage (HV-TEC) architecture—technology typically reserved for electric cars—into the T30. This groundbreaking move is engineered to overcome critical barriers like charging anxiety and reliability concerns, effectively setting a new benchmark that threatens to redefine the competitive hierarchy in the performance EV motorcycle market. The T30's core advantage lies in being India's first and only electric two-wheeler with CCS2 DC fast-charging compatibility.

🚀 Performance and Range Highlights

The T30 delivers performance akin to 250-300cc Internal Combustion Engine (ICE) motorcycles.

• Top Speed: 135 kmph

• Acceleration : 0 to 60 kmph in just 3.5 seconds

• Motor Torque: 70 Nm

• Battery Capacity: 5.4 kWh Li-ion pack

• Range (IDC): 200 km

• Real World Range : 150 km

• Motor Power (Peak) : 22 Kw

• Riding Modes: Comfort, Power, and Sprint.

🔌 Universal Charging Capability

A standout feature is the universal charging compatibility achieved through the HV-TEC architecture.

• Charging Port: The T30 is India's only motorcycle compatible with the CCS2 car charging standard. This grants it access to India's extensive electric car fast-charging network.

• Fast Charging (20-80%): Approximately 36 minutes using public car charging stations.

• Home Charging (20-80%): Approximately 60 minutes using the included portable charging cable and an AC outlet.

• Charging Convenience: The design features a lightweight and portable external charging cable for easy storage.

🛡️ Safety and Ownership Benefits

The T30 is built on the philosophy of "less heat, more life".

• Braking: It features Dual Channel ABS (Anti-lock Braking System) and the largest-in-segment disc brakes, with a 320 mm front disc and a 230 mm rear disc.

• Tyres: Radial tubeless tyres are included for improved traction and better high-speed handling.

• Durability: The battery and motor have an IP67 rating for water and dust resistance. The HV-TEC's reduced heat generation leads to an extended lifespan for the electronics and battery.

• Warranty: The battery comes with an extensive 8 years or  80,000 kms warranty, mirroring the standard for electric cars, while the vehicle has a 3 years or 30,000 kms warranty.

• Service: Raptee offers a digitized service booking system, Doorstep Service for a full year of hassle-free maintenance, and Roadside Assistance.

🧠 Smart Tech and Connectivity

The T30 runs on the Raptee OS and is packed with digital features.

• Dashboard: A 7 inch multi-touch TFT touchscreen display with a 64 Bit Quad coreprocessor. Features include Bluetooth connectivity, over-the-air (OTA) updates, call and music control, and syncing of documents via DigiLocker.

• Navigation: Uses Raptee Maps and features an AI Trip Planner and Charger Collator to easily find charging stations.

• App Features: The Raptee mobile app (Android & iOS) offers real-time vehicle diagnosis, battery health monitoring, ride and charging insights, geofencing, and vehicle controls.

• Convenience: Includes a Smart Keyfob for car-like lock/unlock, ParkZ (Park Assist) for smooth reversing, and smartwatch connectivity (iOS).

The Raptee T30 will be available in the T30 and T30 Sport variants with colour options including Arctic White, Eclipse Black, Mercury Grey, and Horizon Red (for T30 Sport).

The New Frontrunner in Performance EV Motorcycling

The Raptee T30 is poised to usher in a new era for electric two-wheelers, directly challenging the foundations of the current EV motorcycle market, including key models from Ultraviolette, Tork, Revolt, Matter, Oben, and Ola Roadster. By leveraging proven High-Voltage car technology to deliver universal charging via the CCS2 standard—an industry first—the T30 fundamentally solves the crucial EV problems of charging time and range anxiety that plague its competitors. The combination of its competitive ₹2,39,000 ex-showroom price, superior performance, and market-leading 8-year battery warranty positions it as the most compelling and future-proof electric motorcycle option. Raptee’s T30 is not merely a strong rival; it is engineered to drive the inevitable transition to high-voltage platforms, setting a new, higher standard that we believe the entire EV motorcycle ecosystem will have no choice but to follow. This launch signals the beginning of the end for the dominance of existing low-voltage platforms in the performance electric segment.
