Ampere has unveiled the Magnus Neo, an improved version of the Magnus electric scooter, in India. With an ex-showroom price of ₹79,999, this model packs a punch when it comes to speed, design, and functionality. The robust 5-year/75,000 km battery warranty also puts emphasis on dependability.
Improved Battery Technology
Magnus Neo uses a removable 2.3 kWh lithium-ferro-phosphate (LFP) battery, which has far more safety and longer life spans than older conventional batteries. This means the Magnus Neo provides 70-80 km in every charge while taking a higher 65 kmph top speed. It has a 5-6 hours full recharge to make daily driving convenient.
Performance Upgrades
Ampere has powered the Magnus Neo by adding better performance-enhancing features so that it can transcend the barriers of urban commuting. This scooter offers three ride modes, consisting of a reverse mode, that makes navigating through cramped spaces easy. The scooter tops at 65 kmph, faster than the Magnus EX reaches its top speed of 50 kmph.
In addition, the Magnus Neo still has a strong load capacity of 150 kg, making it a very practical choice for families and delivery professionals alike.
Design and Aesthetic Features
Cosmetic upgrades on the Magnus Neo are minor yet impactful. There is a newly designed front apron and headlamp, new indicator units. Ampere is offering this model in five very vibrant colors, namely, Galactic Grey, Glossy Black, Glacial White, Metallic Red, and Ocean Blue. It offers dual-tone color schemes, adding a stylish twist, and the appeal will surely be towards younger audiences and modern urban commuters.
Practical Improvements
With its wheels measuring 12 inches in size, the Magnus Neo provides superior stability compared with the Magnus EX’s 10-inch wheels. The 165 mm of additional ground clearance contributes to a better ride over a rough surface. More practical for riders are an additional USB charging port, thus allowing for more convenient on-road device charging.
Safety and Comfort
The Magnus Neo still keeps safe at its priority list. Its suspension and braking system remain similar to those in the Magnus scooter, and that assures a good comfortable ride. Furthermore, increased wheel size makes this scooter ride on the ground without slipping with maximum grip, increasing safety for users.
With the Magnus Neo starting at ₹79,999, the cost is relatively feasible for those in search of a green and economical mode of commute. The added features and better performance justify the ₹5,000 price increase over the Magnus EX.
The Future of Commuting
The Magnus Neo is an important step up in Ampere’s electric scooters. In terms of both performance and design, it should be a strong player in India’s growing electric vehicle market.
The Magnus Neo would be the ideal choice for riders who want to ride in style, dependability, and a greener mode of transportation within the city. Ampere’s commitment to innovation and user-centric design underlines its potential to shape the future of electric mobility in India.
