Why does the story matter?
Thanks to its quirky design and excellent performance, the Boom Corbett will stand out among a sea of electric two-wheelers in the country. Its bookings have started and deliveries will commence from January next year. Once the state subsidies come into play, the vehicle's prices will go down considerably, thus ensuring its competitiveness in the market.

The moped packs an all-LED lighting setup, a 30-liter under-seat storage compartment, theft and accident detector, and rides on 14-inch alloy wheels. It is available in Panther Black, Whale Blue, Mantis Green, and Beetle Red shades.
