Blacksmith B2 Updates

Monday, 01 July 2019 11:07 PM Blacksmith Electric, a Chennai-based startup, has been working on the Blacksmith B2 electric motorcycle since 2003 and has tested its 3rd generation prototype for over 7,000 km. The company boasts of owning the patent for battery swap technology in India, filed in 2006, even before Teslas launch. This technology could be a game-changer in the Indian electric vehicle market. I believe this innovative approach will set Blacksmith apart from its competitors.

Saturday, 29 June 2019 07:17 AM The Blacksmith B2 is designed with a cruiser-inspired styling, featuring a straight handlebar, long tank, single-piece seat, and a tall windscreen. It also includes a low-slung rectangular headlamp with LED projectors and DRLs, along with a sleek LED tail lamp. This design is aimed at providing both style and comfort. I think the blend of classic cruiser looks with modern electric tech is quite appealing.

Saturday, 29 June 2019 11:53 AM The Blacksmith B2 is powered by a 5KW asynchronous motor and a high energy density NMC battery pack, producing 96Nm of torque. It has a claimed top speed of 120kmph and offers a range of 120km on a single battery and 240km with an optional dual-battery pack. The bike also features an Artificial Intelligence System and various smart apps. I believe the combination of power and range will make this bike a strong contender in the Indian market.

Saturday, 29 June 2019 07:50 PM Blacksmith Electric plans to launch the production version of the B2 in India in 2020. The company has emphasized innovation and new design approaches to ensure the bike is both safe and performant. With its extensive testing and unique features, the B2 is expected to attract a lot of attention. I think the 2020 launch will be highly anticipated by electric bike enthusiasts in India.

Saturday, 29 June 2019 06:53 AM The Blacksmith B2 includes several advanced features such as GPS, an Artificial Intelligence System, and a high-efficiency AC controller. It also comes with safety features like a side stand sensor and occupant sensor. The bike has alloy wheels, telescopic suspension, and a loading capacity of 200 kg. I believe these features will enhance the overall riding experience and safety of the bike.
