Along with the low-speed BGauss A2 electric scooter, the sub-brand of RR Global (India’s largest firm in the electrical industry) has also launched the BGauss B8 electric scooter. The flagship product of the company has 3 variants and is available at a starting price of INR 62,999*.
BGauss B8 Features
One look at the new BGauss B8 electric scooter and you would realise that it is a premium product. It has quite an interesting and seamless design which should attract many buyers. We like the way BGauss has incorporated the side turn signals which are flushed with the front apron of the electric two-wheeler. Also, the rearview mirrors are beautifully designed. They have a unique shape and their build quality seems pretty solid.
The BGauss B8 features designer LED projector headlamps with LED DRLs that enhance the electric scooter’s visual appeal, especially in the dark. The LED taillamps are also decent-looking and come with integrated side turn signals. The instrument cluster of the BGauss B8 is a fully-digital and multi-colour unit. There’s also a ‘Go’ button on the dash to touch start the electric scooter.
Some of the other features of the BGauss B8 include:
- Premium quality and tactile switchgear
- High-quality paint with UV protection
- 18-litres under-seat storage
- Hazard light
- MCB switch
- Kick-stand
- USB port
- Reverse mode
