The Kinetic DX EV is an electric scooter that revives the legendary Kinetic Honda DX nameplate in a retro-modern avatar, launched in India on 28 July 2025 by Kinetic's EV division. It is built on a steel tubular frame with all-metal body panels and comes in two variants — DX EV and DX EV Plus — targeted at family scooter buyers.
