The Qora is made from aerospace grade aluminum, providing strength with a low weight. At 14 kg, it is light enough to carry upstairs, onto a bus, or in an office. It has a three step fold, making it easier for riders living in small urban apartments to have a well thought out wrap around tool for urban mobility.
This makes the Qora more than just a toy scooter, but a real mobility tool for adults and students.
The 250W BLDC hub motor produces smooth acceleration and when combined with the 540W peak output gives enough power to tackle city slopes and bridges. With a top speed of 25 km/h the fully folded Qora hits the sweet spot, fast enough to be convenient in an urban context but still guaranteed to be safe below licensed speeds.
The rear disc brake provides strong relyable stopping power, allowing rider's confidence in even in emergency braking situations. Radisolid tyres provide controllability with low maintenance consistentity.
The 36V 8.7Ah lithium-ion battery allows the scooter to run 15–20 km with each charge. While this may not seem like a lot compared to larger e-scooter models, this distance is exactly what is needed for last mile commuting—office trips, colleges, runs for metro stations, errands, etc.
The charging process only takes 4–5 hours from a traditional plug point, making it easy to charge overnight, or when you have a break during work. It's Battery Management System (BMS) also works to protect the battery from overheating, overcharging, or fluctuations in voltages, on top of enhancing safety and longevity of the battery.
The Qora is designed to be exceptionally functional in Indian cities:
With a 100 kg load capacity, adults will be able to ride comfortably and will not cause stress on the frame.
Owning a foldable EV typically means worrying about service. Vortech has taken the worry out of the equation by offering:
All of this means the Qora is nearly maintenance free, and the ownership cost is quite a bit lower than a petrol alternative.
Switching to Qora is not only convenient but green as well:
Over a year, using the scooter regularly for short rides can save you much of the initial cost by saving on fuel and maintenance.
