So Bounce Infinity launched a new swappable battery version of their popular E1 scooter as a solution. Named Bounce Infinity E1X. It can be run on battery rent. Price in India is kept at Rs 55,000-59,000 (ex-showroom).

Bounce Infinity E1X will be available across the country from next month i.e. June, 2024. It is designed in such a way that users can get services from the top battery swapping network in the country. Note that this model is actually a battery swappable version of the Bounce Infinity E1.
The Bounce Infinity E1X is available in two variants – one with a top speed of 55 km/h and another with a top speed of 65 km/h. Customers can easily choose a fully charged battery from multiple battery swapping stations at low cost. Bounce Infinity is also developing a high-speed (92 km/h) version of this electric scooter for export outside India.
Commenting on the launch of the new model, Bounce Infinity co-founder and CEO Vivekananda Hallekere said, “India is the second largest two-wheeler market in the world. Electric vehicles have yet to fully expand here.” He believes EVs have significant innovation potential. One of which is to reduce the cost of the battery from the car and make it cheaper.
Notably, Bounce Infinity recently announced a 21 percent price cut on its E1+ electric scooter range. The E1+ is currently priced from Rs 89,999 to Rs 1.13 lakh (ex-showroom). The E1+'s removable battery can be charged by a 15 amp wall socket. It has fast charging system.
