Okaya Freedum Li

The Okaya Freedum Li is an affordable licence-free electric scooter sold under the OPG Mobility umbrella, priced at ₹0.62 lakh (ex-showroom). With a 25 km/h top speed, a 75 km claimed range and a 1.44 kWh swappable battery, it is aimed squarely at first-time EV buyers and short city hops. It is one of the more feature-complete budget scooters in its class.

Range and charging

Okaya claims 75 km of range from the 1.44 kWh lithium-ion pack, a realistic figure for gentle licence-free city running at 25 km/h. A full charge takes around 330 minutes — about five-and-a-half hours — from a standard socket, and the spec sheet lists fast-charging support to shorten that wait. The swappable-battery design also lets you carry a charged spare, a practical answer to range anxiety at this price.

Performance and driving

With a 250 W motor capped at 25 km/h, the Freedum Li is designed for legality and simplicity rather than speed — no driving licence is required in most states for this class. A combi brake system with drum brakes at both ends, a digital instrument cluster and selectable drive modes make it feel more modern than its price suggests. The 185 mm ground clearance helps over speed breakers and rough patches.

Practicality and features

The Freedum Li comes as a single variant at ₹0.62 lakh ex-showroom in six colours: White, Silver, Red, Green, Gray and Blue. At 1.44 kWh the battery is compact, running costs are minimal, and the scooter's 7-degree gradeability suits flat and gently sloping city terrain. It is a pure city machine built around low cost and easy ownership.

Who should buy it

Buy the Okaya Freedum Li if you want the cheapest way to a licence-free electric scooter with a proper digital display, fast-charging support and a swappable battery. Skip it if you need real speed or highway ability — 25 km/h and a 75 km range are strictly for local, flat-city use. It is a sensible first EV for students, delivery riders and short-distance daily commuters.
