Hop Electric OXO

The Hop Electric OXO is an electric street bike from Hop Electric Mobility, a Jaipur-founded EV startup (2019), sold in two variants -- Standard and X -- across five colour options (Twilight Grey, Midnight Blue, Electric Yellow, True Black, Candy Red). Unlike most EVs at this price point which use a step-through scooter layout, the OXO is styled as a naked motorcycle, riding on an 18-inch front and 17-inch rear wheel with a telescopic front fork and single downtube frame, per BikeWale's spec sheet.

Price & Variants

The OXO Standard is priced at about Rs 1.34 lakh (ex-showroom) with a claimed range of 140 km and a top speed of 88 kmph. The OXO X steps up to roughly Rs 1.63 lakh ex-showroom for a longer claimed range of 150 km and a 95 kmph top speed.

Powertrain & Charging

Both variants use a 3.75 kWh lithium-ion battery pack driving a BLDC hub motor, with an 850W portable charger that takes about 4 hours 15 minutes for a 0-80% top-up and roughly 5 hours for a full 0-100% charge. Riders get Eco, Power and Sport ride modes plus regenerative braking, and a 5-inch digital instrument cluster.

Braking & Ride

Braking is handled by front (240mm) and rear (220mm) discs with a Combi Brake System (CBS) rather than ABS, paired with telescopic front forks and a hydraulic rear shock on tubeless tyres (90/90-R18 front, 130/70-R17 rear).

Who Should Buy It

The Hop Electric OXO suits riders who want motorcycle-style presence and real ride modes at an entry-level EV price, without stepping up to a full-size electric motorcycle. The naked-bike stance, claimed 140-150 km range and 88-95 kmph top speed make it a capable city and intra-city commuter. Note the trade-offs before buying: the 850W charger means a roughly 5-hour full charge with no fast charging, braking relies on CBS rather than ABS, and the 3.75 kWh pack is modest for the segment — so it is best for daily urban runs with overnight home charging.
