Yatri Motorcycles has offered a first-of-its-kind test ride for motorcycle enthusiasts in Kathmandu. Staying true to the idea of reinventing urban mobility, customers were given the opportunity to ride Yatri’s upcoming Project One (P1) dual-sport electric commuter motorcycle and check out the near-final version of the much-awaited Project Zero (P0) premium electric motorcycle. The most anticipated P0 is launching on 23rd April 2021.

The event was a sneak peek into an exciting future from Yatri Motorcycles that have the potential to reinvent urban mobility.  The main highlight of the event was the test-ride session of the upcoming Project One (P1) prototype motorcycle. According to the company, the P1 is lightweight, super agile with great suspension, built for the roads of Nepal, and decidedly more accessible to more people than its bigger sibling (P0).

The compact chassis, high ground clearance, fat tires, and long-travel suspension of the P1 should make it ideal for our terrain. Yatri has provided the P1 with a very stylish look when compared to other dual-sport bikes.  The final version of the P1 will approximately deliver 19 bhp of power and a range of 120km. Although Yatri is tightlipped about the pricing of the P1, we expect the P1 to be a budget-friendly model.

Similarly, Yatri Motorcycles also showcased the soon-to-be-launched Project Zero (P0),  a premium electric motorcycle made in Nepal which was showcased in 2019. Targeting the urban areas, Project Zero upgrades the cafe racer design with modern connectivity tools and an elegant, forward-looking aesthetic that is sure to turn heads.

Yatri’s Project Zero features an exceptionally strong chromoly steel trellis frame. The motor delivers 48kW (approximately 64hp) of power and 120 Nm of motor torque. The top speed is rated at 140 km/h. This is all made possible by an 8.0 kWh battery. The motorcycle will reach 0 to 60 km/h under 2.5 seconds. It also gets a powerful onboard 3.3 kW charger that allows you to charge the battery to 80% in less than 2 hours. Well, with their DC Fast charging you can get the battery to 80% in a matter of 20 mins. Project Zero will give u an approximate range of 230 km on one full charge.

Another unique and important design feature is their Yatri Hub (app) which you can access through their beautiful 7″ Full-HD display. This will equip you with all the necessary telemetry data along with a deeper insight into several interesting stats, in-built 4G connectivity and navigation, keyless start, and OTA updates.

Yatri Motorcycles, meanwhile,  plans to organize similar pop-up test rides in the coming weeks too. To participate in the event, interested individuals should fill an online form on the company’s website.
