Range and Daily Use
The OoWah EX claims 105 km of certified range. In real-world city riding, expect roughly 80 to 90 km, depending on traffic and ride mode. As a result, a rider covering 25 km a day can go about three days between charges. Moreover, its light 97 kg weight and low 765 mm seat make it ideal for new and shorter riders. Therefore, it suits college runs, short office commutes and local errands.
Charging Options and Running Cost
| Charger | Charging time (0 to 80%) |
|---|---|
| 500 W | About 4 hours 5 minutes |
| 750 W | About 2 hours 50 minutes |
| 1,350 W | About 1 hour 30 minutes |
BGauss offers three charger options for the EX, so you can pick how fast you want to charge. Moreover, you can remove the battery and charge it indoors, which helps if you live in an apartment. With home charging, running costs stay at roughly Rs 0.22 per km. At 750 km a month, that’s about Rs 165 in electricity, against roughly Rs 1,600 in petrol for a 110cc scooter.
BGauss OoWah EX Features
The EX covers the essentials well. A round LED headlamp and full LED lighting help at night, while a digital console shows distance to empty. Moreover, reverse assist helps you back out of tight parking spots, and a USB port charges your phone. On the safety side, it gets CBS, a side-stand sensor and limp-home mode. In addition, it can wade through water up to 300 mm deep.
What You Miss Over the MAX+
The OoWah EX skips a few things that the top version offers. It gets a smaller battery with about 40 km less claimed range and a shorter battery warranty. Moreover, it uses a round headlamp instead of the MAX+’s wider apron-mounted unit. For Rs 28,000 more, the OoWah MAX+ fixes all of these. Meanwhile, the Bajaj Chetak C2501 costs about the same but has a fixed battery and a lower top speed.
