Kinetic Green Luna Superstar
About
The Kinetic E Luna is the electric reincarnation of the iconic Kinetic Luna moped. It features a tubular frame, a telescopic fork at the front, and twin shock absorbers at the back. The vehicle is equipped with a 1.7 kWh battery pack and a 1.2 kW motor, with a claimed top speed of 50 kmph. It has a digital LCD instrument console, a USB port for charging, and a dual seat that can be removed for additional luggage space. The E Luna also includes a side stand indicator and a safety lock. However, it struggles with poor brakes, inconsistent throttle response, and a lack of comfort due to its soft padding and awkwardly placed pillion footpegs. Despite its utilitarian design, the E Lunas performance and reliability issues make it a less appealing option in the competitive Indian market.

Kinetic Green Luna Superstar: Pros & Cons
Cons
- Limited Sales & Service Outlets
Our take on this /// Verdict
The Kinetic E Luna, while nostalgic and simple, falls short in several critical areas. Its design, though cute and nostalgic, is marred by poor build quality and weak components, such as the drum brakes and budget suspension. The vehicles performance is spartan, with lethargic acceleration and inconsistent throttle response. The range, claimed to be 110 km, is realistically around 50-55 km, which is a significant discrepancy. Additionally, the E Luna is not rain-friendly, and the lack of proper servicing centers and customer support is a major concern. At a price of Rs 74,990, it competes with entry-level commuter motorcycles and is more expensive than its chief rival, the TVS XL 100. While it may appeal to a niche market looking for a moped-style EV, it needs significant improvements to be a viable option for most buyers.
Price
The Kinetic E Luna is priced at Rs 74,990 ex-showroom in India. When you factor in the on-road costs, including registration, insurance, and other charges, the price can easily cross Rs 80,000. This pricing puts it in a competitive segment where it faces stiff competition from both electric scooters and entry-level petrol motorcycles. Given its features and performance, the price seems on the higher side, especially when compared to more affordable options like the TVS XL 100, which starts at Rs 45,000. For buyers looking for a cost-effective and reliable mode of transportation, the E Lunas pricing may be a deterrent.
Mileage
Wednesday, 20 November 2024 04:12 AM
The mileage of the Kinetic E Luna is a point of concern for potential buyers. Despite the companys claim of a 110 km range on a single charge, real-world usage indicates a range of around 50-55 km. This significant discrepancy can affect the vehicles appeal, especially for those who need a reliable mode of transportation for daily commutes. The actual mileage also varies based on riding conditions and modes used, but overall, it falls short of the promised range.
