While the official price is yet to be confirmed, Emobi has indicated an expected range of Rs 80,000 to Rs 90,000, ex-showroom. So, what features come with that price tag? Let’s take a quick look.

In terms of design, it looks pretty much how an electric last-mile delivery -oriented commuter should look. It gets a round headlamp cluster, features a flat, wide footboard, handle-bar mounted round RVMs, with forward-set footpegs. The AKX LS is a low-speed version specifically created for gig workers and last-mile delivery personnel.
