Electric mobility is shifting gears in India — and 2025 looks like the year when electric bikes finally break out of the “concept” stage and roar into real-world roads. Until now, the electric two-wheeler scene has been dominated mostly by scooters. But now, big players like TVS, Bajaj, Hero, and Yamaha are set to shake things up with their upcoming electric motorcycles.
In this article, we’ll take a closer look at some of the most awaited upcoming electric bikes in India in 2025 — their expected launch timelines, features, price range, and how they stack up against the competition.
Why 2025 Is Crucial for Electric Motorcycles in India
For years, the Indian EV market has been missing one major piece — electric bikes that actually excite riders. Scooters like Ola S1 Pro or Ather 450X have done well in cities, but there’s a growing demand for powerful, sporty, and long-range electric bikes that can match (or beat) their petrol counterparts.
In 2025, we’ll finally see major companies moving beyond prototypes and launching production-ready electric motorcycles that:
- Offer higher top speeds
- Deliver longer range per charge
- Come with solid battery management systems
- Compete on price and performance with existing 125cc to 250cc petrol bikes
1. TVS Apache Electric (Expected Name)
- Expected Launch: Mid-2025
- Expected Price: ₹1.60 – ₹1.80 lakh (ex-showroom)
- Expected Range: 120–150 km
- Top Speed: 100–120 km/h
TVS has already proven itself with the iQube electric scooter, but the brand is now focusing on the performance electric motorcycle segment. Codenamed internally as part of the “TVS EV 2W project,” this upcoming bike may carry the iconic Apache branding, giving it instant recognition among enthusiasts.
It’s expected to feature:
- A mid-mounted motor
- Chain-driven setup
- Connected dashboard
- Fast charging capabilities
This bike will directly compete with the likes of Revolt RV400, and upcoming offerings from Hero and Yamaha.
2. Yamaha E-Bike (India-Specific Model)
- Expected Launch: Late 2025
- Expected Price: ₹1.80 – ₹2.20 lakh
- Expected Range: 100–130 km
- Top Speed: 110–120 km/h
Yamaha has already launched electric scooters and lightweight e-bikes globally, but India will likely get a unique electric motorcycle tuned for our conditions.
While details are limited, reports suggest that Yamaha’s India-specific EV bike will:
- Use a lightweight frame for better urban handling
- Offer balanced performance and efficiency
- Come with Yamaha’s signature riding dynamics and style
What makes this exciting is Yamaha’s strong brand loyalty in the 150cc and 200cc space — if they price it well, it could change the game.
3. Hero Electric Motorcycle (Based on Hero-Harley Partnership)
- Expected Launch: Mid to Late 2025
- Expected Price: ₹1.50 – ₹1.90 lakh
- Expected Range: 120 km
- Top Speed: 95–105 km/h
Hero MotoCorp, India’s largest two-wheeler brand, is working on a full-fledged electric bike with inputs from its joint venture with Harley-Davidson. The company has teased EV projects before, and now all eyes are on its upcoming launch in 2025.
Possible features:
- Stylish naked streetfighter design
- Mobile app support
- Removable battery (not confirmed)
- Regenerative braking
This bike is expected to target urban and semi-urban riders who want daily performance + low running cost.
4. Bajaj Pulsar Electric
- Expected Launch: Late 2025 or Early 2026
- Expected Price: ₹1.60 – ₹1.90 lakh
- Expected Range: 130 km
- Top Speed: 110 km/h
The Pulsar brand needs no introduction. Bajaj has already launched the Chetak electric scooter, but now they’re gearing up for a Pulsar-inspired electric bike. Based on leaks and reports, Bajaj is working on a mid-performance EV that blends the Pulsar DNA with modern electric tech.
What we might see:
- Familiar muscular styling
- Robust frame for Indian roads
- DC fast charging
- Digital speedometer cluster
If priced well, it could offer a more reliable and service-friendly alternative to newer EV brands.
5. Ultraviolette F77 Mach 2 (Updated Version)
- Expected Launch: Early 2025
- Expected Price: ₹3.99 lakh onwards
- Expected Range: Up to 300 km
- Top Speed: 150–155 km/h
Unlike others on this list, Ultraviolette is already in the market. But the upcoming Mach 2 version of the F77 is expected to bring serious updates in range, handling, and thermal efficiency.
Ultraviolette targets premium buyers and performance lovers, with a focus on:
- Aerospace-inspired design
- High-grade components
- Massive range (for long rides)
- Dual-channel ABS and connected tech
Though pricey, it’s aimed at early adopters who want the fastest and most futuristic electric bike in India.
