Overview
- Keeway unveiled the Hypevolt-R on Friday, July 3, 2026, and has started online bookings for a Rs 5,000 token against an introductory ex-showroom price of Rs 1.99 lakh.
- The company advertises the Hypevolt-R as a performance model with an IDC-certified range of 180 km, a claimed 115 km/h top speed and a 0–40 km/h sprint in 2.3 seconds.
- Published specifications conflict over battery capacity — one report describes a dual 5 kWh setup while others say the two removable packs total 5 kWh — and that discrepancy has not been resolved by an independent source.
- Keeway says the scooter uses removable batteries that can be charged on or off the vehicle and that in-vehicle charging reaches roughly 0–80% in about three hours.
- The Hypevolt-R comes with a long feature list and hardware aimed at premium buyers, including a 5-inch TFT, dual-channel ABS, traction control, hill-hold and blind-spot detection, and its launch positions Keeway against established Indian premium e-scooters as buyers and testers await independent range and capacity verification.
