In the first half of 2024, Gogoro’s battery swapping network will be launched in Mumbai and Pune.
Gogoro, an electric vehicle (EV) battery-swapping network provider, has launched its CrossOver brand of electric scooters in India. In addition, the company has established a battery-swapping network for business-to-business (B2B) enterprises in Delhi and Goa.
The Gogoro battery-swapping network will launch in Mumbai and Pune in the first half of 2024, with consumer availability in the second quarter. CrossOver GX250, CrossOver 50, and CrossOver S are the three versions of the CrossOver series. While the made-in-India CrossOver GX250 is now available, the CrossOver 50 and CrossOver S will be available in 2024.
The CrossOver GX250 is made in Maharashtra and features a newly built all-terrain frame. The electric scooter features the highest ground clearance in Gogoro’s current vehicle portfolio, at 176mm. The CrossOver GX250 is powered by a 2.5kW Direct Drive and has a certified range of 111 kilometers.
With a new mounting point expansion system that incorporates 26 locking points, the electric scooter has plenty of storage choices. It has four cargo areas: a platform design headlight, a foot, a seat, and a rear cargo compartment. For increased cargo room, the back seat can be flipped up or eliminated.
In August, the CrossOver GX250 was approved by the International Centre for Automotive Technology (ICAT). Gogoro stated in November that it was the first overseas two-wheeler firm to be recognized by the Small Industries Development Bank of India (SIDBI), allowing the CrossOver GX250 to be used in its EV financing schemes.
“We are at the cusp of a dramatic change in the global urban transportation landscape, and with its more than 250 million mopeds and motorcycles India is well positioned to lead the shift to sustainable consumer and B2B transportation,” said Horace Luke, founder and CEO of Gogoro
