The Kinetic DX electric scooter is a rebirth of the household name Kinetic Honda DX of the 80s and 90s adapted to the electric age. As its deliveries have already begun after its launch in July 2025, the new DX indicates that Kinetic is taking the Indian market of the booming electric two-wheeler seriously. The DX has a combination of both nostalgic and futuristic elements to give commuters an engaging and green alternative with smart features and a practical range.
The Smooth Design Is combined with functionality.
The Kinetic DX is classic in its nature yet offers modern features such as full LED lighting and alloy wheels and tubeless tires to enhance safety and style. Its metal body frame gives it the durability and the clean proportions and ground clearance of 165 mm make the scooter fit very well in the city and also occasionally to avoid potholes.
The 37 liters of underseat storage are vast enough to pack in helmets and everyday items, and the plush seating and handlebar positioning all make the bike comfortable as one rides along with a relaxed posture even in the case of extended commutes to the city.
Advanced Electric Drive powered.
The core of the Kinetic DX is a hub-mounted 4.8 kW electric motor of BLDC which uses a 2.6 kWh battery of lithium iron phosphate (LFP). The LFP option is not only safer and better thermally stable, but also has a lifecycle of 2500-3500 charge cycles, so the scooter will last years.
The DX has a realistic top speed of 90 km/h, and the base model is claimed to have a range of 102 km with the premium DX+ model reaching about 116km per full charge. Interestingly, with a so called cruise lock mode that is activated at constant speeds of 25-30 km/h, riders can extend the range up to 150 km in ideal conditions- excellent news on budget conscious commuters.
The charges are competitive, a full charge can be had in approximately 4 hours and a charge of 0-80 percent can be completed in only 3 hours, which is suitable to the normal routine of use such as overnight charging or charging at the office.
Intelligence in the Connected Rider.
The Kinetic DX has been equipped with numerous contemporary tech options that will ease the process and make the ride more enjoyable. The full digital instrument cluster (8.8 816) gives real-time information such as speed, battery, trip analytics, etc. Riders are provided with keyless ignition to start the engine easily and with Bluetooth connection they are able to connect their smart phones with their cars so that they can have more control over the vehicle and also get notifications.
The proprietary Telekinetic connectivity system of Kinetic provides a range of high-tech features like geo-fencing, to notify the riders whenever the scooter is going outside of a designated zone, intruder warning, vehicle location tracking, and ride data analysis. The listed convenience and security features make DX unique in its own segment.
Moreover, the scooter has three riding modes ( Range, Power, and Turbo) that enable the riders to focus on efficiency, balanced performance, or exhilaration based on their needs.
Safety and Comfort Innovations.
Safety has also been given the necessary consideration with front disc and rear drum brakes that have been synchronized by a Combi Brake System, which has ensured that the car will have the necessary stopping ability when in the urban traffic. The suspension system is equipped with telescopic forks in the front and adjustable twin shock absorbers in the back providing the system with a comfortable ride regardless of the conditions in the Indian roads.
The Kinetic DX scooter also has convenient features such as external Bluetooth music on-the-go speaker, reverse assist, to ease parking in small spaces, hill hold, and daytime running lights that help in enhancing visibility.
Dealer network and Availability.
Delivery has been started slightly later than originally announced; however, Kinetic is actively opening up its dealerships network with more than 50 dealerships in such major cities as Pune, Mumbai, Delhi, Jaipur, and others. It is planned to establish more than 200 dealerships all over the country by the 2026-27 fiscal year, which will guarantee the further accessibility and after-sales services.
Kinetic DX is priced competitively at ex-showroom of ₹1.11 lakh base DX and ₹1.17 lakh DX+ with all the recent technologies in the electric scooter at a reasonable cost.
Summing up The Name with Future-Ready Edge A historic Name.
The Kinetic DX electric scooter is the re-entry of a brand that used to be a revolution in the Indian commuting on two wheels. Combining heritage design and the latest battery technology and smart connectivity, the DX provides a distinctive offer on the electric scooter market.
Its combination of good range, convenience, and a decent top speed render it a perfect piece of gear to be used by urban commuters who want to switch to green mode without sacrificing on convenience and style. The Kinetic DX will be reestablished as an iconic product as its sales and service networks continue to expand to provide riders with the electric future of India.
