Whenever we hear the name of Jio, the first thing that comes to mind is cheap and fast internet. Since 2016, when Jio launched 4G data plans, the company has changed the lives of millions of people. While the internet was earlier considered a luxury for many people, Jio has made it available to every home and every person.
Now the company does not want to be limited to just internet and mobile. Jio is now bringing an electric cycle. Think about it, the company that made mobile internet cheap for everyone is now trying to make cycling and e-mobility accessible to the common man.
So let us know what will be special in this electric cycle of Jio, how can it make your everyday life easier and by when will it be seen in the market.
Jio Electric Cycle – Long Distance Companion
According to reports, Jio is going to provide a 3.8 kWh battery in its electric cycle. The battery is the most important part of the cycle because it decides how far you can go after charging it once.
This Jio cycle will give a range of about 130 km once fully charged. Now just think –
- If your office is 10 km away from home, then you can go to and come from office for about 6 days without charging on a single charge.
- This battery will also prove to be very beneficial for people living in villages who often go to market or school 5–7 km away.
This range is still seen in expensive e-bikes or scooters, but if Jio offers it at a lower price, it will really revolutionize the market.
The fun of fast charging
In today’s fast-paced life, no one has time to charge the battery for hours. This is the reason why Jio is also preparing to bring fast charging technology in its electric cycle.
According to reports, this cycle will be fully charged in just 1.5 hours. This means –
- If you have to leave for office early in the morning and have forgotten to charge it at night, then the cycle will be charged just by the time you get up, take a bath and have breakfast.
- In villages where electricity sometimes comes for a limited time, this fast charging feature will be very useful.
Smart and safe features
It would be a mistake to consider this electric cycle of Jio as just an ordinary cycle. In this, the company is going to provide many smart and important features –
- Front and rear disc brakes – so that even if sudden braking is applied, the bike does not slip and feels more safe.
- Digital speedometer – So that you can clearly know at what speed you are traveling and how much battery is left.
- LED headlamp and taillight – Clear light and safe ride even at night.
- Mobile connectivity and location tracking – This feature will be especially helpful for those parents who want their children to be safe.
With Jio’s smart SIM card, you will also be able to control this cycle with a mobile app. Like –
- Where you have parked, it will be known immediately on the app.
- If the battery is getting low, you will get a notification.
- If it is stolen, you can track the location and find it immediately.
Price – the biggest strength
As soon as the name of Jio comes, this is the first thing that comes to mind – great facility at a low price. The company is going to adopt the same strategy with electric bicycles as well.
If reports are to be believed, the price of Jio electric bicycle can be between ₹ 3799 to ₹ 5999 only.
Now let’s compare –
- The price of other electric bicycles available in the market usually ranges from ₹ 20,000 to ₹ 50,000.
- Some e-bikes cost more than a lakh rupees.
If Jio really launches a bicycle at such a low price, then it will fit in everyone’s budget – whether it is a city office-going youth or a village farmer.
Launch date – when will it come to the market?
Jio has not yet officially announced it. But many reports say that this cycle can come in the market by the beginning of 2026.
Look at Jio’s record – whenever the company brings a product, first rumors fly, then suddenly launch it and the market gets shaken. So it is possible that the electric cycle may also be launched suddenly in the same way and people line up at the shops to buy it.
Why is Jio electric cycle special?
- Affordable price – Fits in the budget of the common man.
- Long range – It is impossible to get a range like 130 km at this price.
- Smart features – Things like mobile connectivity and tracking are usually found in expensive vehicles.
- Better for the environment – No expenditure on petrol and diesel, no smoke, less pollution.
Most beneficial for whom?
- School and college going students – Cheap, light and safe.
- Young people going to office – to save petrol and get out of traffic easily.
- Village people – To reach the market, school, market and farm quickly.
- Families with households – to meet everyday short distance needs.
Impact on e-cycle market in India
If Jio electric cycle really comes at such a low price, it will change the entire e-mobility market.
- Big companies will be forced to reduce prices too.
- People in villages and small towns will be able to experience electric cycles for the first time.
- People who spend on petrol and diesel will gradually shift to e-cycles.
This will be just like Jio did with the internet. Earlier data was expensive, people used it thoughtfully. But after Jio came, everything changed.
Conclusion – Aam Aadmi Ki Sawari
In short Jio Electric Cycle is not just a cycle, but can prove to be a revolution.
Low price, strong range, smart features and Jio’s trust – all these make this cycle easily accessible to people of every class.
Just like Jio made internet accessible to everyone, now it has the potential to make affordable and smart e-mobility accessible to every street and every village of India.
