Oben Electric Zooms into Kerala: New E-bike Showrooms in Trivandrum & Kochi!

Oben Electric, one of India's leading electric vehicle (EV) brands, is making headlines with its recent entry into Kerala. Popular for its innovative, powerful, and eco-friendly Oben Rorr, Bengaluru-based Oben Electric has now opened e-bike showrooms in Trivandrum and Kochi.

This expansion is a part of the company's ambitious plans to open 50 showrooms and service centres across 12 major cities by the end of the year.

Oben Electric's expansion into Kerala highlights the increasing popularity of e-bikes in the state, where as of March 2024, the EV adoption rate stands at 19.5%. This increase in demand for sustainable transportation can be attributed to increased consumer awareness and government initiatives for improved charging infrastructure in the country.

Why is Oben Electric Entering Kerala?

Kerala has emerged as the leading state in EV adoption, attributable to rising fuel prices and an increasing awareness of environmental issues. Consumers are keen on embracing greener alternatives to traditional petrol vehicles, and e-bikes are being seen as a compelling alternative.

Moreover, the Kerala government is proactively promoting electric vehicles through various initiatives, such as its EV Policy, which was introduced in 2019. The policy offers incentives such as road tax exemption, free EV registration, free parking, and exemption from toll payments.

The government is also focusing on investments in charging infrastructure, the use of electric buses in public transportation, and public awareness campaigns to educate the masses about the benefits of EVs. Such policies make Kerala a strategic market for Oben Electric.

Another reason for Oben Electric's entry to Kerala is the strategic location of Trivandrum, the state capital, and Kochi, a major commercial hub. These cities offer a diverse customer base and are well-connected, allowing Oben Electric to reach a wider audience.

The location of these showrooms ensures that customers from various parts of Kerala can explore Oben Electric’s cutting-edge Oben Rorr, first-hand.
