Suzuki launches its first electric scooter e-Address with a range of 87 km in the Indian market (Global Suzuki)
Suzuki has just launched its first production electric scooter, the e-Address, aimed at the Indian market. Unlike competing models, it comes with a fixed lithium iron phosphate (LFP) battery, offering better protection against damage.
The scooter can be charged at home or with a fast charger, with charging times ranging from 6h42min to 2h12min, depending on the method. It promises a range of about 87 km and a power of 4.1 kW, around 5.4 horsepower, with a maximum torque of 15 Nm. In addition, it includes features such as regenerative braking, LED lighting, and a 17-liter storage space under the seat.
The launch of the e-Address marks Suzuki’s entry into the electric scooter market, a sector where its competitors Honda and Yamaha have been present for some time. The brand, traditionally more cautious in its innovations, chose to use a historically popular model, as the combustion-powered Address scooter has been one of Suzuki’s biggest successes since 1987.
Although Suzuki was slow to adopt electric technology, it now offers a practical and robust model for the Indian public, a market that has quickly embraced electric vehicles.
The e-Address design maintains Suzuki’s commitment to practicality, offering under-seat storage, a feature that has become rare in many electric scooters. Additionally, the model is available in three color options, including one that references the famous Hayabusa color, allowing brand fans to match both models. Weighing 122 kg, the e-Address is heavier than the combustion version of the scooter, but still shows no major differences.
The launch aims to allow Suzuki to compete solidly in the growing electric vehicle market in India.
