Pune, 09 September 2022: India’s first and fast-growing electric motorcycle manufacturer, Tork Motors, has officially rolled out its unique mobile service van – PIT CREW. Tork PIT CREW is aligned with the theme of the World EV Day of celebrating sustainable E-mobility. The van will cater to customers’ sales and after-sales requirements at their doorstep. The PIT CREW is a part of the brand’s ‘Experience TORK initiative’ that offers the unique joy of owning the Tork Motorcycles.

Taking inspiration from the motorsports heritage of the brand, the PIT CREW is designed with a sole agenda to offer ease, convenience, and peace of mind to the KRATOS® owners. Currently functional in Pune, the PIT CREW will also act as a compact showroom and service center on wheels with the capability to do the periodic maintenance of the motorcycles.

Introducing the PIT CREW, Mr. Kapil Shelke, Founder and CEO of Tork Motors said, “We are delighted to bring in this smartly designed service initiative for our customers on this World EV Day. Customer satisfaction has always been our priority at Tork Motors, and the PIT CREW is designed to offer just the same. With this, we are sure to reach out to our customers located in distant areas as well as offer a convenient solution for urban customers who are always on the run. It is our endeavor at TORK to offer a sustainable EV ecosystem to our customers.”

“Moreover, the multipurpose PIT CREW will be the first touch point to connect with customers for our impending dealer partners across India, as they can start operations while the showrooms are getting ready. With this distinctive business model, we are looking at fostering our service network as well as extending our reach across cities”, added Mr. Shelke.

Tork Motors’ one PIT CREW van can accommodate three motorcycles at a time for delivery purposes. It also carries all the necessary tools, spare parts, and other consumables to support immediate and last-minute vehicle maintenance requirements.

The GPS and WiFi-enabled vehicle is thermally insulated to maintain a lower temperature inside the van. The hi-tech vehicle is also connected to the cloud to detect any software error and to provide any necessary updates for the motorcycles while servicing, similar to the racetrack pit crew experience. It is equipped with a 4000-Watt Inverter with 5.4 kWh of battery and has two motorcycle chargers of 700-Watt for on-the-spot vehicle charging requirements. Additionally, dry cleaning and polishing of the motorcycles can be done inside the van with a considerable amount of space divided into office and service areas.

Tork Motors will roll out the PIT CREW vehicles in Bangalore, Hyderabad, Mumbai, and Ahmedabad by the end of this financial year.

Tork Motors launched its flagship products – KRATOS® and KRATOS®-R earlier this year. Since its launch, the company has received an overwhelming response to its indigenously developed electric motorcycles through numerous bookings. The company has also started delivering motorcycles to customers in a unique 1:18 scale box, reviving childhood memories that are much of an experience.

TORRANCE, Calif., November 22, 2021: American Honda confirmed today that the Navi miniMOTO will be offered in the U.S. market for the 2022 model year. Small, accessible, enjoyable, and priced extremely competitively, the Navi appeals to a wide range of customers, especially those just learning to ride. The model has a fuel-efficient, user-friendly 110cc engine and an automatic transmission – so no shift lever or clutch lever.

The look is sporty and fun, and the seat has a low, 30.1-inch height, so most riders can touch the ground with both feet. The combination is a bike that’s nimble for navigating city traffic, easy to carry on an RV bumper rack, and lightweight to simplify maneuvering into tight parking spots. There’s even a storage bin for stowing a jacket, snack, or textbooks. Already very popular in some markets, the Navi is now available in the United States.

“From the original Cub to the Grom, Honda has a proud legacy of producing miniMOTO models that open doors to new riders, and the Navi is set to extend that trend even further,” said Brandon Wilson, Sports & Experiential Manager at American Honda. “This miniMOTO checks all the boxes for new riders, like a simple operation, a fun design, low operating costs, and Honda reliability – all for well under $2,000. We’re pleased to make motorcycling possible for more riders by offering the Navi in the U.S.”

The Navi will be on display at this weekend’s IMS Outdoors motorcycle show in Costa Mesa, California, where it will also be among the models included in the Motorcycle Industry Council’s Ride With Us Moto Intro experience, giving new riders an opportunity to try motorcycling.

NAVI

Somewhat of a mix between Honda’s Ruckus and Grom (each of which is popular enough to have developed its own subculture), the Navi has the styling of a motorcycle and some convenience features of a scooter, including Honda’s V-Matic automatic transmission – just twist the throttle to go! It’s all wrapped up in an appealing miniMOTO package that’s fun and easy to personalize, for example with Honda Accessory graphics produced in collaboration with Icon.

The Navi also has an amazingly low MSRP and gas-sipping performance, putting it within reach of almost any customer. With Honda’s proven quality and reliability, it’s also a dependable way to get around town – far more convenient than public transportation or carpooling. There’s never been a better way for new riders to discover just how enjoyable, convenient and practical motorcycling can be.

MSRP: $1,807

Colors: Red; Grasshopper Green; Nut Brown; Ranger Green

Availability: January 2022 (February in California)
