Emobi Manufacturing Private Limited has announced the launch of the AKX LS (low-speed) electric two-wheeler designed for business-to-business (B2B) fleets. The new model is aimed at supporting last-mile delivery services targeting the 30% of delivery riders in India who do not possess a driving licence for high-speed vehicles. The vehicle will be soon be available with an expected price range between INR 85,000 to INR 95,000.

The AKX LS is equipped with a powerful lithium-ion battery pack available in two variants—1.5 kWh with Lithium Iron Phosphate (LFP) chemistry and 2.3 kWh with Nickel Manganese Cobalt (NMC) chemistry. The vehicle is designed with efficiency and compliance in mind, featuring a custom-made motor that performs optimally in low-speed operations. With a range of up to 75 km on a single charge for the LFP variant and 120 km for the NMC version, the AKX LS is set to support the rapid demands of delivery services. The vehicle’s fast-charging capability will allow users to fully recharge the battery in just 30 minutes. This feature is expected to enhance operational efficiency for companies dependent on quick turnaround times.

In a notable collaboration with Livaah Innovations, Emobi has developed the AKX’s battery pack to be compatible with Livaah’s solar hybrid inverters. This means that the battery can also function as a home power backup adding value to B2C customers who purchase Livaah inverters. Emobi remains focused on the B2B market positioning the AKX as a practical choice for gig workers in delivery roles. Livaah is promoting the dual-use battery packs in the consumer market creating an overlap between consumer and commercial needs.

Bharath Rao, Founder and CEO, Emobi highlighted that the company also offers advanced features like geo-fencing, live tracking, and vehicle immobilisation, helping fleet managers to maintain control over their operations. These elements position the AKX LS as a reliable choice for last-mile delivery services and bike taxi operations, with potential future expansions on a global scale.
