Amobi Manufacturing Private Limited, an emerging electric two-wheeler manufacturer based in Karnataka, has deployed 100 AKX Kyari electric scooters in Bengaluru. They are powered by Musashi’s advanced electronic axle system and battery swapping services provided by Honda Power Pack Energy India Pvt. Ltd. (HEID) se: switched network. This deployment marks an important step towards high range, high speed and lower cost of ownership mobility for last mile logistics operators.
The vehicles are manufactured for Tekinverse, which leases them to Muvnw rider partners on a micro-fleet model with the aim of creating sustainable livelihood opportunities. By combining low operating costs with reliable vehicle availability, the program enables passengers to earn more while reducing reliance on fuel-intensive alternatives.
The performance of the AKX Kyari EV is comparable to that of a traditional 125cc ICE motorcycle. It has an IDC cruising range of 106 kilometers, a top speed of 80 kilometers per hour, and an acceleration time of 0-60 kilometers per hour in 12 seconds, making it suitable for India’s demanding logistics needs. The vehicle features 3.7 kW peak motor power, 1.5 kWh dual replaceable battery packs and a synchronized braking (combined braking) system for enhanced safety and control.
“This deployment is more than just a milestone, it is a shift towards scalable micro-entrepreneurship,” said Bharath Rao, CEO and co-founder of Emobi. “By combining high-performance EV technology with reliable battery swapping and strong local service support, we are building an ecosystem that makes EVs the most accessible, efficient and profitable option for every rider.”
As part of the Emobi service framework, Tekinverse and Muvnw ensure fleet uptime through clear service level agreements, trained maintenance engineers and responsive roadside assistance. Emobi is also expanding its micro-factory and micro-fleet service models in the metropolis, starting with Delhi NCR, to support higher deployment volumes and upcoming product expansion.
Commenting on the partnership, Naoya Nishimura, CEO, India and Africa, Musashi said: “This deployment demonstrates the real-world impact of India-led EV innovation. Our collaboration with Emobi demonstrates that localized bridge engineering combined with a robust battery swapping ecosystem can deliver reliable, high-uptime EV solutions for last-mile logistics. As India accelerates EV adoption, this comprehensive collaboration will play a key role in strengthening the country’s mobility landscape.”
Tomohide Haraguchi, Vice President and Chief Technology Officer, Honda Power Pack Energy India Pvt. Ltd. added: “HEID is deploying Battery as a Service (BaaS) using safe and reliable Honda Mobile Power Pack e: (MPP) and Honda Power Pack Exchanger e: (BEX), two solutions derived from Honda’s long-standing expertise. The solution reduces B2B Charging downtime in operations reduces upfront vehicle costs by eliminating battery purchases and eliminates future battery replacement worries. Combined with automotive-grade e-axle, it delivers unparalleled efficiency for B2B mobility.”
The deployment of these 100 electric vehicles marks a collaborative step forward in building reliable, sustainable and scalable mobility solutions for the Indian logistics industry. As the battery swap network expands and localized EV technology matures, partnerships between technology providers, manufacturers and fleet operators will continue to shape the next phase of the Indian EV ecosystem.
