Designed around the way Indian families use their scooters every day, the Simple Wave brings together practicality, technology and comfort in a six-model lineup (3 variants), with up to 243 km IDC range. The scooter offers a class-leading storage space of up to 70 litres. This comprises the Pill, a first-of-its-kind auxiliary storage compartment with a capacity of 4 litres, an industry-leading under-seat compartment with a capacity of up to 63 litres, and a convenient 3-litre glove box, making it well-suited to the needs of Indian families.
The new lineup includes Simple Wave S, Simple Wave and Simple Wave +, further offering 5 models under this lineup. The diverse portfolio allows customers to choose between different battery capacities, display technologies and connected features based on their riding requirements. Leading the range is the Simple Wave +, powered by a 5 kWh battery pack that delivers an IDC range of 243 km and a top speed of 90 km/h. The scooter is equipped with a 6.4 kW PMSM motor, producing 179 Nm wheel torque. The lineup is also offered with 3.7 kWh, 2.7 kWh, and 2.2 kWh battery configurations, delivering ranges of up to 171 km and 110 km (IDC), respectively. All variants feature multiple riding modes including Ride, Eco and ECOX, while higher variants additionally receive Sport mode for enhanced performance.
Commenting on the launch, Suhas Rajkumar, Founder & CEO, Simple Energy, said, “The launch of the Simple Wave marks a defining moment for Simple Energy. We started with a belief that electric mobility could be engineered differently in India, and over the years we have built the technology, manufacturing capabilities and product platform to make that belief real. Simple Wave takes that foundation into the family scooter segment - one of the largest and most consequential categories in Indian two-wheelers. It has been engineered as a product that brings practicality, comfort, and reliability together. As we expand our portfolio and our presence across the country, our focus remains unchanged: to build technology-led electric vehicles that are designed in India, for the way India moves.
The Simple Wave is designed with practicality at its core, featuring a 1347 mm wheelbase and a payload capacity of 150 kg. The scooter also has an IP67-rated battery pack and motor protection. The Simple Wave range is equipped with portable chargers and supports both standard and fast charging. The range-topping model supports 0-80% charging in as little as 2 hours 15 minutes using fast-charging capability, while a 750W portable charger enables convenient charging at home. Across the range, power is delivered via a PMSM motor paired with a chain-drive transmission, offering smooth acceleration and efficient performance for urban commuting.
The Simple Wave lineup is launched at an introductory offer, priced from Rs.1,09,999. It is available for bookings across all Simple Energy touchpoints.
