Mahindra the serial EV Retrofitter… now seems to have retrofitted the MoJo brand

People on the autoblogging sites have been going head over heels over the Mahindra Mojo Electric motorcycle. Is it a vehicle that has been designed as an electric motorcycle or has the MoJo motorcycle (that did not sell) got retrofitted into Electric motorcycle (just like most Mahindra electric cars)?

Mojo is the big flop motorcycle brand of Mahindra two wheelers which was launched in October 2015. Till date it has very little impact on the motorcycle market although rivals like Bajaj Dominar, etc continue to enjoy growth.

Earlier this year, they divided the Mojo range into two – XT300 and UT300, trying to make the brand accessible to more buyers in the segment… yet the sales have not improved.

The Mahindra Mojo electric motorcycle prototype you see above, was clicked by Cartoq reader, parked outside the Bosch factory in Bangalore.

Should the govt give Mahindra the licence to retrofit vehicles of ALL make and size? That is what Mahindra seems to have acquired an expertise in?
