This noise and pollution-free scooter has a load carrying capacity of 150 kilograms with the added convenience of under-seat storage space, and could be the utilitarian answer to urban mobility in the near future. The Ridge is available in eye-catching colours, and is endowed with alloy wheels, tubeless tyres, a telescopic suspension and an anti-theft system. Okinawa have plans to introduce future models with an extended range of up to 200 kilometres, accident detection, app-based vehicle maintenance and other smart features. The scooters are built using contemporary Japanese technology and processes, at a manufacturing facility in Bhiwadi, Rajasthan.
With no fuel and engine oil consumption, not only do the Okinawa scooters make economic sense, they also take a step away from our reliance on fossil-fuels, and could contribute to a cleaner, greener future.
