The legacy scooter brand, Lohia Machinery Limited better known as LML which issued a notice of insolvency in 2017, is set to make its comeback into the electric two-wheeler segment this year. It has announced three products: Star, Moonshot and Orion. Booking for Star has already begun on the company’s website.
In this article, we explore the specification and various features that are on offer.
Star, which LML announced in September last year will be displayed at AutoExpo 2023 to be held in Pragati Maidan on 11 this month. It is an electric scooter with a range of 150 km on a single charge and an expected battery capacity of 3kw.
A petrol-powered scooter sharing the same name was on sale in 2016 but could not capture any substantial market share. A revival of the brand in the EV sector means LML is banking on modern technology and its legacy to attract buyers.
