India’s electric motorcycle market is heating up, and the latest wave of interest is aimed at the Tork Kratos X, an upgraded offering from Pune-based EV manufacturer Tork Motors. With bookings seeing a notable surge in metro cities like Mumbai, Bengaluru, Delhi, and Pune, the company has finally revealed the expected delivery timeline – and it’s sooner than many anticipated.
Let’s break down what’s causing the buzz and when buyers can expect to see the Kratos X on roads.
Bookings Pick Up Pace in Metro Hubs
Since its unveiling earlier this year, the Tork Kratos X has quietly but steadily gained attention, particularly among urban youth and daily commuters looking for electric alternatives that don’t compromise on performance. According to reports from dealers and company sources, tier-1 cities have shown an 80% spike in bookings over the last two months.
In cities like Bengaluru and Pune, the numbers are leading the chart. The strong presence of a tech-savvy population, better EV infrastructure, and rising fuel costs appear to be key reasons for the growing demand. Tork Motors has already ramped up dealership networks in these locations to handle the influx.
Delivery Timeline Officially Revealed
Amid the booking frenzy, Tork Motors has officially announced that deliveries for the Kratos X will begin from August 2025 onwards, starting with cities where demand is highest. Bengaluru and Pune will be among the first to receive the initial batch, followed closely by Mumbai and Delhi.
Customers who booked in May and June are expected to get priority delivery slots, while newer bookings may see a wait time extending to September–October 2025. The company confirmed that production is already underway and is being scaled up to match the rising demand.
What’s Driving the Kratos X Craze?
Unlike many other electric motorcycles that play it safe with conservative specs, the Kratos X comes packed with upgrades. Key features that have caught attention include:
- A more powerful electric motor compared to the previous Kratos R
- Updated digital instrumentation and connected tech
- New riding modes and improved regen braking
- Sleeker design with enhanced aerodynamics
What’s also working in Tork’s favor is its Indian origin. Many buyers in major cities are now looking to support homegrown EV startups, especially those offering real-world usability, decent range, and good after-sales service.
Charging Infrastructure in Tier-1 Cities a Boon
Another reason for the booking surge is the improved charging ecosystem in metros. Cities like Delhi, Bengaluru, and Mumbai now boast better availability of public fast chargers, making EV ownership more convenient. Tork has also partnered with select charging providers to ensure Kratos users can plug in at multiple touchpoints across the city.
How the Competition Reacts
While Ola Electric and Ather are leading the electric scooter space, the motorcycle EV segment remains relatively untapped. With only a few players like Revolt RV400 and Ultraviolette F77 in the mix, Tork Kratos X has found a sweet spot between affordability, performance, and brand recall.
Market watchers believe that if delivery and service quality meet expectations, Tork could potentially set a benchmark for urban electric motorcycles in India.

Conclusion
The Tork Kratos X is no longer just an underdog story. With bookings climbing and delivery dates officially locked, this homegrown electric motorcycle is all set to make its presence felt on Indian roads. For tier-1 city buyers seeking an alternative to fuel-powered bikes, the wait may finally be worth it.
