The new Mahindra Racing 2016 MGP3O motorcycle made its global debut at the Auto Expo. This motorcycle is the first product that has emerged from Mahindra Racing’s development centre at Besozzo near Varese in Italy. The 2016 MGP3O has improved power delivery, acceleration, top speed and handling, besides a host of other changes to improve the quick serviceability of the motorcycle. A new engine, gearbox and aerodynamic package is matched by refinements to the chassis and electrical components. All these changes combine to offer better performance, in tune with a new double exhaust system developed by Arrow.
The innovative GenZe 2.0 is a smart and connected fully electric vehicle that made its US debut in January this year. It has a removable lithium-ion battery that can be recharged at any standard electrical outlet. It has best-in-class 0-48.3 km/h in 8 seconds, 48.3 km on a single charge, excellent turn radius and the ability to handle payload capacity of up to 34 kgs. As an urban vehicle, it travels up to a max speed of 48.3 km. The GenZe 2.0 has a 7″ Cruise Connect touch screen display and allows continuous monitoring of more than 95 vehicle parameters, including battery state-of-charge, range estimation, remote diagnostics, alerts for theft, distress and customized navigation features. This vehicle is a part of a global initiative of smart transport solutions. It has been launched in the USA in the Bay Area and in Portland, and currently is not available in India.
