okla ORBIT

Battery and motor

The okla ORBIT is an entry-level electric scooter priced from Rs. 162,000. Both versions use a 1000W hub motor and have a quoted top speed of 45 km/h. The base ORBIT runs on a 72V 20Ah graphene battery with a claimed range of 80 km and a charging time of 6–8 hours. The ORBIT LFP, at Rs. 225,000, switches to a 64V 33Ah lithium iron phosphate battery, claims 70–80 km of range, charges in 5–6 hours and lists 80 Nm of maximum torque. These ranges are OKLA’s figures under ideal conditions, so expect less with a passenger, in summer heat or in heavy stop-start traffic.

Size and practicality

OKLA gives a seat height of 780 mm, which should suit most adult riders. The company highlights generous leg space, a rear rack, aluminium hydraulic suspension and storage for small items, so the ORBIT is set up for everyday errands. Overall dimensions, kerb weight and load capacity are not published on the official site.

Equipment by variant

Both variants share the same body and a display that shows speed and battery level. OKLA’s FAQ lists a reverse function, a remote control and overcharging protection. The LFP version’s spec sheet confirms a front disc brake and rear drum brake; the graphene version’s brake set-up is not listed separately. Some marketing text on the ORBIT page mentions ABS and a 120 km/h speed, but these do not match the spec tables and look like copy errors, so do not rely on them. Colours offered in the online shop are Black, White, Mica and Pink.

Warranty

The motor has a 2-year warranty on both versions. Battery cover is the biggest difference: 18 months for the graphene battery and 3 years for the LFP battery, with terms and conditions. Under OKLA’s warranty policy the controller and charger are covered for 12 months or 10,000 km. Water damage, pressure washing, overloading and repairs at non-authorised centres are not covered, so keep the warranty booklet and invoice safe.

Which one to buy

In our opinion, the graphene ORBIT is the budget choice if you want the lowest price and ride short distances. The ORBIT LFP costs Rs. 63,000 more, but its longer battery warranty, quicker charging and the generally longer life of LFP cells make it the safer long-term buy for daily commuters. If you can stretch a little further, compare it with the ONYX LFP 10-inch, which adds a rear disc brake for Rs. 10,000 more.
