The Muv-E is a freight e-cycle that Hero Lectro, a division of Firefox Bikes Ltd., has stated would be introduced to improve last-mile delivery operations. The Muv-E, which comes in a black version, has several strong features designed to make it practical and efficient in urban distribution environments. It has an impressive 120 kg overall load capacity, which includes the rider. Its front basket can store up to 10 kg, while its back carrier can handle up to 25 kg. Because of this, the Muv-E is perfect for effectively moving a variety of items across urban environments.
The Hero Muv-E’s key features include a removable 14.5 AH battery that can provide up to 70 km of range with pedal assistance and a speedy 8-hour charge period, which guarantees delivery staff little downtime and maximum productivity. Interestingly, the e-cycle has a mobile charging capability that lets users charge their gadgets while they’re out and about, which is useful for drivers with hectic schedules.
Sriram Sundresan, CEO of Firefox Bikes, emphasised the strategic vision behind the Hero Muv-E, stating, ‘The Muv-E is more than just a vehicle; it’s a pivotal step towards transforming urban mobility. With its remarkable efficiency and minimal operational costs, this e-cycle stands out as a sustainable solution, promising to significantly reduce carbon emissions in urban areas.’
Safety is paramount in the design of the Muv-E, which includes a key ignition system, a high-power 40 LUX front light for enhanced night-time visibility, and anti-skid pedals with reflectors that adhere to safety norms. Additionally, the model is equipped with a 7-speed Shimano gear system that facilitates smooth gear transitions, an 80 mm travel suspension, and a 26-inch alloy unisex frame, ensuring a stable and comfortable ride for all users.
The economic advantages of the Muv-E are clear, as it operates at the cost of only one rupee per 14 kilometres, offering substantial savings over traditional delivery vehicles. Furthermore, its maintenance costs are negligible when compared to motorised two-wheelers, making it a cost-effective option for delivery businesses.
