🔋 Kinetic DX Electric Scooter: A Classic Reborn for Indian Roads
Kinetic is back in action, and this time, it’s all-electric. The brand that once defined two-wheeler mobility in India is set to launch the Kinetic DX electric scooter on July 28, 2025. Inspired by the legendary Kinetic Honda DX from the 1980s, the new model blends nostalgia with future-ready features for today’s urban rider.
This isn’t just a comeback. It’s a bold re-entry into the electric scooter segment that’s rapidly growing in India — and the Kinetic DX is aiming to carve its own niche.
🛵 Retro Design That Brings Back Memories
From its teaser images and early details, it’s clear the Kinetic DX is built to remind riders of a simpler, iconic era.
-
The squared-off headlamp cowl mirrors the original Kinetic Honda DX.
-
Wide body panels and curved fenders add to the retro aesthetic.
-
A flyscreen with a glowing KINETIC logo blends old-school styling with modern flair.
-
The illuminated red “READY” switch is a clever callback to the beloved self-start button of the past.
This kind of design will especially appeal to riders who once owned or admired the original DX, while still looking unique among today’s futuristic-looking EVs.
⚙️ Electric Power Meets Practical Performance
What makes the Kinetic DX electric scooter more than just a pretty face is its capability under the skin.
-
A hub-mounted electric motor powers the rear wheel and is expected to deliver speeds of up to 80 km/h, which is ideal for city commuting.
-
The scooter will be offered with two battery options:
-
A 1.8 kWh pack for budget-conscious buyers
-
A 3 kWh option for those who need longer range
-
-
The expected riding range is between 60 to 100 km per charge depending on battery and riding style.
This setup makes the DX an excellent choice for daily use — from office commutes to quick grocery runs.
Charging details haven’t been confirmed yet, but given Kinetic’s focus on convenience, a standard home-charging solution is very likely.
