Oben Electric Rolls Out 8-Year Battery Warranty to Win Over Indian EV Buyers

Starting May 1, the company is offering something pretty unheard of in India’s electric two-wheeler space—an 8-year or 80,000 km battery warranty.
They're calling it ‘Protect 8/80’, and it’s available for just ₹9,999. Honestly, that’s a game-changer for anyone thinking about switching to EVs. One of the biggest fears EV users have (and it's valid) is how the battery will hold up after a few years.
Will it still run like new? Will it suddenly lose power one day? Oben’s trying to kill that fear with a bold move. Their new warranty promises consistent top speed and acceleration throughout the entire coverage period.
It’s also fully transferable, which is super helpful if you plan to sell your bike down the line.
A Different Kind of Battery, Built for India
Oben isn’t using the usual Li-NMC cells. They’ve developed their Lithium Iron Phosphate (LFP) battery, which is supposed to have about 50% better thermal resistance.
It can handle Indian summers a lot better. That means less stress on the battery and more peace of mind for you, especially if you live somewhere hot.
Their Rorr EZ electric motorcycle, which this warranty covers, comes in both 3.4 kWh and 4.4 kWh battery variants. You get an IDC range of 175 km, it can go 0-40 km/h in 3.3 seconds, and it tops out at 95 km/h.
A Word From the Founder
Madhumita Agrawal, Founder & CEO of Oben Electric, said something that stuck with us:
“This new battery protect plan reinforces our belief in our technology and ensures our customers ride worry-free, every day.”
it’s a promise that you’re not going to be left stranded or broke because of battery issues down the road.
Oben Electric’s Protect 8/80 plan might just be what the Indian EV market needed. A little confidence boost. A little peace of mind. And a whole lot of value.
