(Answer not in the article, but you can add: "Exact pricing will be revealed soon, but it’s expected to compete with the Bajaj Chetak and TVS iQube.")

What is the real-world range of the Kinetic DX

While Kinetic claims 116km (DX+) and 102km (DX), real-world conditions like traffic and riding style may reduce it to around 80-90km.

Kinetic claims its 37L underseat storage can fit both a full-face and a half-face helmet, making it one of the most practical options.

Kinetic DX Electric Scooter: A Modern Twist on a Classic Ride Design & Styling: A Tribute to the Classic DX Battery, Motor & Performance: How Far Can It Go Charging Time & Real-World Range Expectations

Kinetic is Back with a Bang: Meet the All-New Electric DX Scooter!

Kinetic has just dropped its latest electric scooter, the DX, and it’s turning heads! Taking inspiration from the iconic two-stroke DX of the '90s, this electric avatar is a nostalgic yet modern ride. After the success of the e-Luna, the revamped DX feels like the perfect next step. While Kinetic already had some budget-friendly e-scooters, they lacked a distinct identity. But this one? It’s built specifically for India, and banking on the DX legacy is a smart move. Let’s dive into what makes this scooter special.

A Nod to the OG

The new Kinetic DX wears its heritage proudly. The design pays homage to the original petrol-powered DX with a retro-modern twist—think horizontal LED headlight, the classic Kinetic logo on the windscreen, and those sleek three-spoke alloy wheels. Even the switchgear feels familiar, including a square start button that’ll make old-school fans smile. Available in five colors (White, Black, Red, Blue, and Silver), the DX blends nostalgia with contemporary style effortlessly.

Battery, Motor, and Range: Packing a Punch

Battery Capacity: 2.5kWh
Claimed Range: 116km (DX+) and 102km (DX)
Charging Speed: 0-50% in 2 hours, 0-80% in 3 hours, 0-100% in 4 hours
Motor: Hub-mounted BLDC motor
Power: 4.8kW (DX+) and 4.7kW (DX)
Top Speed: 90kmph (DX+) and 80kmph (DX)

On paper, the DX holds its own against rivals like the Honda QC1, TVS iQube, Ather Rizta, Bajaj Chetak, and Ola S1 X. With a solid range for city commutes and enough power for highway rides, it’s a well-rounded package.

Built Tough, Loaded with Space

Wheels: 12-inch alloys
Brakes: Front disc + rear drum
Suspension: Telescopic fork + twin shock absorbers
Underseat Storage: A massive 37 litres (Kinetic claims it’s the only scooter in the world that can fit both a full-face and half-face helmet together!)
Ground Clearance: 165mm

Like the Chetak, Kinetic has stuck with a metal body for the DX, adding to its rugged charm. But the real standout? That huge underseat storage—practicality at its best.

Loaded with Features (But a Few Misses)

8-inch LCD console
Bluetooth connectivity
Hill-hold assist, regen braking, cruise control, reverse mode
Three riding modes: Range, Power, Turbo
Password-protected lock/unlock
Button-operated passenger footpegs
Retractable charging cable
OTA updates
LED lighting all around

Connected Features (DX+ only):

Find My Kinetic,Track My Kinetic,Anti-Theft Alert
Guide Me Home,Geo-Fencing Alert,Data Analytics

While the feature list is impressive, the DX does skip a TFT display with navigation, which would’ve been a nice touch. Still, for the price, it’s packing plenty of tech.
