Speaking on the announcement, Hemant Kabra, Managing Director, BGauss said, "I am extremely overwhelmed with the response we have received for BGauss B8, our flagship electric scooter from the Indian consumers since its launch last year in October. This further gives us the confidence to add two new products to our existing portfolio of electric scooters to cater to the growing demands of the e-vehicle enthusiasts in the country by offering an all-encompassing solution that seamlessly blends technology with an affordable, zero-emission, eco-friendly and superior riding experience."
BGauss will be manufacturing its electric scooters at its new facility in Chakan, in Maharashtra. The new plant has been strengthened to roll out the 100 per cent locally developed, made in India range of electric scooters. The company though is tight-lipped about the new offerings and the price point at which they will be launched.

These 100 per cent made in India products will offer more performance, better range, advanced safety features as well as improved technology making it extremely favourable for long-distance commutes driving electric mobility's growth in India," Kabra added further.
