Shema Electric was the first company to manufacture its own low-speed electric scooters under the ‘Make in India‘ initiative in 2016. The company has consistently delivered top-notch electric scooters through relentless research, innovation, and technical excellence. All vehicles are manufactured at its state-of-the-art manufacturing units located in Manesar and Odisha.

The newly launched scooters, Eagle+ and TUFF+, are made with the latest battery technology and are designed for both B2B and B2C segments. While TUFF+ is a multi-utility EV loader with a loading capacity of 150 kgs and a maximum speed limit of 60 km/hr, Eagle+ is a passenger two-wheeler offering a maximum speed of 50 km/hr. Both scooters provide additional accessories such as Bluetooth speakers, an anti-theft alarm, a USB charging port, and a central locking system. Eagle+ is powered by Sun Mobility’s IP67 waterproof swappable battery, providing cost-effectiveness to riders, especially for last-mile deliveries.

Yogesh Kumar Lath, Founder & CEO, said, “Shema Electric is shaping the future of Indian mobility with a focus on energy efficiency, sustainability, and cutting-edge technology. On this World EV Day, we reaffirm our commitment to the launch of two new electric scooters, which are meticulously designed to meet the demand for high-speed and robust two-wheelers. We are grateful to our network of dealers, distributors, and customers for their unwavering support as we continue our journey towards a greener country.“

The scooters are now available for purchase at Shema’s dealer showrooms across India, at an introductory starting price of INR 139,999 for TUFF+ and INR 117,199 for Eagle+ (both ex-showroom prices). It is further applicable for FAME II and state-level subsidies, depending upon the geographies.

The company has forged multiple production partnerships with key EV distributors and marketplaces, having deployed over 20,000 electric vehicles to aggregators to date. Additionally, Shema Electric markets its products under its own brand name, leveraging an extensive dealer network across India, and also providing a seamless after-sales service.

With the inclusion of the newly launched scooters in its pre-existing range of scooters and EV loaders, Shema is propelling India into a future of energy-efficient mobility. Shema Electric is India’s foremost electric scooter manufacturer, pioneering sustainable mobility solutions since 2016. The company was founded by Yogesh Kumar Lath and Seema Lath to offer cutting-edge, safe, and environmentally and economically suitable vehicles to Indians for personal and business use. After the success of its low-speed scooters, the company is now ready to launch its range of high-speed scooters, under the ‘Make In India‘ mission.
