TL;DR
Raptee.HV's T30 electric motorcycle completed a record-setting 7,530 km All-India ride in 19 days, showcasing the potential of EVs using existing car charging infrastructure.
Electric motorcycle startup Raptee.HV has set a new national record, with its T30 model successfully completing a 7,530-kilometer All-India ride in just 19 days. This monumental journey, now recognized by both the Asia Book of Records and the India Book of Records, marks the first time an electric motorcycle in the country has achieved a ride of this magnitude.
A key factor in this achievement was the T30's compatibility with the CCS2 charging standard, allowing it to utilize India's extensive public DC fast-charging infrastructure primarily built for electric cars. This broad access enabled the rider, Baala Manikandan, to average 407 kilometers per day. The successful completion of the ride without a single breakdown highlights the T30's reliability and the growing viability of long-distance electric motorcycle travel in India.
