Classic design and features.
While the new DX keeps the original’s classic design, it has been updated with modern features like LED headlights, a digital display, and cleaner, sharper lines. One standout feature is the LED light with the Kinetic logo as the DRL, which gives the EV a fresh identity while maintaining its timeless charm.
It features three riding modes: Range, Power, and Turbo, along with useful features like reverse assist, cruise control, and hill-hold for added convenience. The battery is positioned under the floorboard, offering better balance and extra under-seat storage, which is a roomy 37 liters. A retractable charging cord and a flip-out pillion footrest are considerate touches.
The top-tier DX+ features Kinetic’s new Telekinetic tech package, which includes smart features like ride tracking, remote locking, anti-theft alerts, and voice navigation. You can even connect your phone to the scooter’s display and play music through the built-in speakers, making it a great option for city rides.
Availability and Warranty
Bookings for the Kinetic DX start at ₹1,000. Deliveries are set to begin in stages around key cities in September 2025. The scooter comes with a 3-year/30,000 km warranty, which can be extended to a 9-year/1 lakh km plan if needed.
