Stor:ie has some remarkable features which include a smart speedometer integrated with Bluetooth connectivity and turn by turn navigation. You can also receive call alerts on the smart dashboard. Its Connected Drive feature locates and navigates to the nearest charging station with an easy ‘pay and charge’ concept for convenience. Stor:ie boasts one of the biggest seats and footboards in its category which will aid in better city commute.
The scooter has been designed keeping in mind user comfort without compromising on safety. As a feature, users can also have a complete diagnostic summary of the scooter on the go. It is among the only e-scooters to sport a metal panel along its body to make it more durable and resistant to scrapes. This sets it apart from any scooter in its segment by providing an extra layer of durability on uncertain roads.
Stor:ie is powered by a Lucas TVS motor and controller with an AIS 156 approved 3.1kWh battery pack which gives a mileage of approximately 132Km on a single charge (ICAT Certified). Extensive focus has been placed on Research and Development to make it a safer and reliable vehicle. Stringent testing norms have been put in place by thoroughly testing the scooter for 100,000 kilometres to prevent the initiation and propagation of thermal runaway (fire) additional to what AIS 156 mandates. These safety measures combined with Stor:ie‘s combined braking system aids in better control on all roads.
