The electric vehicle manufacturing company, Simple Energy was founded in the year, 2019. The company launched its first electric scooter “Simple One” in the Indian market a few days ago. The company is working on two more electric scooters and an electric bike. The company is also planning to launch an electric car by the year, 2025, and it is already working on it.

The about-to-be-launched electric scooters by Simple Energy would have a cost lesser than its first electric scooter, Simple One. And, the price of the Simple One electric scooter is Rs. 1.45 lakhs.  

The price of the premium bike from Simple Energy is expected to be in the range of Rs. 3 lakhs to Rs. 5 lakhs. Both of the new electric scooters from Simple Energy would cost between Rs. 1 lakhs to Rs. 1.5 lakhs. And, the production of these electric scooters is expected to start in the next 8-10 months.  

Launch and Delivery of Simple One Simple Energy revealed the launch of this electric vehicle on 15th August 2021 with a cost of Rs. 1.10 lakhs (inclusive of all prices). 

Ola Electric, presently the top-selling electric scooter manufacturer in India, also launched the Ola S1 Pro on that day. After the showcase of its electric scooter, Simple Energy guaranteed that the EV deliveries would start in December 2021. Then, it was postponed because of the effect of Covid-19 and supply chain regulations. 

 After that, it was postponed to June 2022 due to the increase in the number of EV fire occurrences. Then, it was postponed to September 2022 owing to compliance with the new battery safety rules by the Ministry of Road Transport & Highways (MoRTH). Finally, the Simple One EVs will be delivered beginning in June 2023 in Bangalore in a phased manner.
