Altigreen has entered India’s electric two-wheeler market with the launch of the Minsara, a multi-utility electric two-wheeler priced from Rs 1.24 lakh (ex-showroom). Launched on Wednesday, November 4, 2026, the Minsara is aimed at a very different buyer from the typical city commuter: small business owners, delivery riders, farmers and fleet operators who need a two-wheeler that can work as hard as they do.
The Bengaluru-based company, now part of the JAKSON Group, is best known for its neEV range of electric cargo three-wheelers. With the Minsara, it is moving into two-wheelers for the first time, and the pitch is practical rather than flashy: a tough, load-ready machine that covers daily transport and business duties on a single charge.
Three variants, up to 165 km of range
The Minsara comes in three variants, each built around a different kind of use. The base Minsara S gets a 2.78 kWh battery pack with a claimed range of 125 km. Step up to the Minsara S+ and the battery grows to 3.8 kWh, pushing the claimed range to 165 km. The third variant, the Minsara SE, takes a different route altogether with a battery-swapping configuration, aimed at riders who cannot afford long charging stops during the working day. Altigreen has not yet disclosed the battery capacity or range for the SE variant.
Across the range, the electric drivetrain produces 172 Nm of peak torque, with a claimed gradeability of 33 percent, which should help the scooter handle inclines and rough, loaded runs. Top speed is 75 kmph, and the Gross Vehicle Weight Rating stands at 264 kg, a figure that underlines its load-carrying intent.
Built for work, not just commuting
Look closely at the hardware and the work-first brief becomes obvious. The Minsara rides on 17-inch alloy wheels with telescopic suspension and a rib-caged chassis, a combination designed to stay stable and durable on urban streets, semi-urban market roads and rural routes alike. Safety equipment includes a crash guard, dual disc brakes with a Combined Braking System, a main stand and a side stand with a safety alert.
Deepak Thakur, CEO of JAKSON Green Vehicles, said the Minsara was developed for users who depend on two-wheelers for business operations and daily transportation. Amitabh Saran, CTO and founder of Altigreen, said the vehicle is engineered from the ground up to be a segment leader and described it as a timely addition to the company’s existing neEV three-wheeler cargo series, backed by Altigreen’s 3S dealership network and after-sales infrastructure.
Price, warranty and deliveries
The Minsara is priced starting at Rs 1.24 lakh (ex-showroom) and comes with a standard warranty of three years or 30,000 km, whichever comes first. Extended warranty options are also planned, according to the company.
- Bookings: Now open through Altigreen dealerships in Bengaluru, Vijayawada and Noida
- Deliveries: Scheduled to begin on December 1, 2026, in these three cities
- Warranty: Three years or 30,000 km as standard
- Top variant range: 165 km claimed (Minsara S+)
The choice of launch cities is telling. Bengaluru, Vijayawada and Noida give Altigreen a foothold in the south, east and north, covering tech-driven delivery demand as well as smaller-town commercial use, before a wider rollout.
Why this launch matters
India’s electric two-wheeler market has grown fast, but most of the attention has gone to personal commuting scooters. The multi-utility corner, machines that double as a shop delivery vehicle in the morning and family transport in the evening, is far less crowded. That is the gap Altigreen is targeting, and it is a large one: millions of Indians earn their living on two wheels, from vegetable vendors and service technicians to rural entrepreneurs and last-mile delivery riders.
The company has also indicated plans to enter the passenger three-wheeler segment in the near future, signalling that the Minsara is the start of a broader expansion rather than a one-off experiment.
For buyers, the honest test will be real-world range under load, charging convenience and service support in smaller towns. On paper, though, the Minsara arrives with a clear identity: a workhorse EV at a price that sits within reach of the small businesses it is built for.
