All-new Ampere Magnus Neo Launched At Rs 86,999; Full Details Here
Gets a 2.3kWh LFP battery pack with a decent claimed range of 118km
Greaves Electric Mobility has launched the new Ampere Magnus Neo at Rs 86,999 (ex-showroom, Dehi), which is Rs 2,099 more than the regular Magnus Neo. The changes are largely aimed at improving everyday usability rather than introducing a major overhaul. The major change compared to the regular Magnus Neo is its reduced seat height and new colour schemes.
Ergonomic Revisions
Ampere claims that they have tweaked its seat to improve ergonomics and overall layout, with the intention of making it easier to ride for longer durations.
A 10-inch rear wheel has been introduced, while the seat height now stands at an accessible 777mm (25mm lower than the regular Magnus Neo). Combined with a kerb weight of 103kg (5kg lower), these changes should make the scooter more manageable, especially in slow-moving traffic for shorter riders.
Underpinnings & Features
Mechanically, the Magnus Neo uses the same dual-frame chassis along with a telescopic fork and a monoshock. The braking setup is basic, with drum brakes at both ends.
The scooter is powered by a 2.3kWh LFP (Lithium Ferrous Phosphate) battery pack, delivering a claimed IDC (Indian Driving Cycle) range of 118km. The scooter has a claimed real-world range of 85-90km in Eco mode and has a claimed top speed of 65kmph. Charging from 0 to 80 percent is said to take around 5 hours using an off-board charger.
Ampere has revised the wheel and motor configuration, which is expected to result in smoother acceleration and slightly improved stability, although real-world performance remains to be seen.
As for the features, the Magnus Neo comes with a 3.5-inch LCD instrument console, an all-LED lighting setup and a USB charging port. It also has 22 litres of underseat storage space.
Price And Rivals
Priced for Rs 86,999 (ex-showroom), the updated Magnus Neo is daily affordable for what it offers. But if you are looking for an electric scooter in a similar price range, you do get the option of the Ather Rizta, the Hero Vida VX2, the TVS Orbiter and the Bajaj Chetak C2501.
