I’m excited to tell you about the new n-First Electric Scooter from Numeros Motors — a fresh, Italian-styled urban EV that just hit the headlines. We first saw it unveiled in Bengaluru on Nov 6, 2025, and there’s a lot to like: an attractive price for early buyers, Italian design input, modern connected features, and a focus on everyday city use. In this post I’ll walk you through the key specs, pricing offer, real examples and what it means if you’re thinking of booking one.
Launch, pricing and early-bird offers
The n-First Electric Scooter was launched at an event in Bengaluru on November 6, 2025. Numeros announced a very clear intro offer: the first 1,000 buyers can get the scooter at an ex-showroom introductory price of ₹64,999. Bookings are open now with a refundable booking amount of ₹499. The company says deliveries will begin from January 2026, so you won’t be waiting long if you reserve early.
Why does this matter? For price-sensitive city riders, an EV under ₹65k is eye-catching. But remember — the special price applies only to the first 1,000 buyers. After that, the regular price will apply, so if you want the discount, you’ll need to act quickly.
Design and build: Italian styling, Indian testing
One of the n-First’s standout points is its styling. Numeros worked with Italian design studio Wheelab, and you can see the influence: clean lines, compact silhouette and a youthful look. Unusually for a scooter, it runs on 16-inch wheels, which the company says improves stability and ride comfort compared with smaller wheels.
But Numeros didn’t design the n-First only for show. They tested it across harsh Indian conditions — desert heat, mountain cold and busy urban stop-start riding. The scooter also has reported durability features like an IP67 water/dust rating in some communications, and a robust build from their plant near Bengaluru (Narsapura).
Variants, batteries and real-world range
The n-First comes in multiple variants. Media coverage mentions three main trims — Max, i-Max and i-Max+ — while some company notes hint at up to five options. Colour choices reported so far include Traffic Red and Pure White.
Battery sizes and claimed ranges are important for city buyers. Here are the key numbers:
| Variant | Battery (kWh) | Claimed Range (IDC) | Charging Time |
|---|---|---|---|
| Lower/Standard (e.g., Max) | ~2.5 kWh | ~91 km | ~5–8 hours |
| Top (i-Max+) | 3.0 kWh | ~109 km | ~5–8 hours |
These ranges are based on the IDC (Indian Driving Cycle) numbers published at launch. In my experience with scooters, real-world range can be lower if you ride aggressively or use lots of accessories and connectivity features. Still, a claimed ~91–109 km is strong for daily city commutes.
Performance, tech and practical trade-offs
The n-First uses a mid-mounted permanent-magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) with a chain drive. Lower variants are reported at around 1.8 kW peak, and the top i-Max+ has a more powerful motor. Top speed for mainstream trims is around 55 km/h, which is plenty for city use.
Connectivity is modern: you get OTA software updates, theft alerts, geofencing and other connected features. There’s even a reverse mode and a smartphone holder for navigation. Numeros is pitching this as a youth-focused, urban scooter with a focus on accessibility and women riders.
But there are trade-offs. To fit the 16-inch wheels and the slim design the n-First sacrifices some under-seat storage and has a smaller floorboard. If you regularly carry a large bag or need big storage, you’ll want to test this in person.
Numbers, availability and what I’d check before booking
Here are the headline facts again so you don’t miss them:
- Launch: Bengaluru event on Nov 6, 2025.
- Intro price: ₹64,999 for the first 1,000 customers.
- Booking: Refundable ₹499 to reserve.
- Deliveries: Begin January 2026.
If I were booking, I’d take three practical steps:
- Confirm which variant gets the ₹64,999 price and whether on-invoice paperwork reflects that exact figure.
- Ask the dealer for the full, final spec sheet (motor power, battery type, warranty, IP rating and any exclusions).
- Do a short ride test to check the floorboard, seat comfort and under-seat storage — those areas vary by user needs.
Also note that early coverage shows some small discrepancies in reported variant counts and specs. That’s normal on launch day. The safest move is to verify the final on-invoice specs with Numeros or an authorised dealer.
Case example: commuter math
Let me give you a real example. I commute roughly 30 km per day. If I used the mid battery (~91 km IDC), a single full charge could last about three days of commuting. If electricity costs are ₹7 per kWh and the 2.5 kWh battery needs a full top-up from empty, a full charge would cost about ₹17.5 — less than a typical tank of petrol. That’s a practical win for urban cost savings.
Also consider time: a ~5–8 hour full charge means you can recharge overnight at home or top up during a workday if your office has a charger. If you need faster turnaround, check whether Numeros plans accessory fast-charging or battery-swap options later.

Final Thoughts
The n-First Electric Scooter is an interesting new entry in India’s urban EV market. With Italian styling by Wheelab, practical testing for Indian roads, and a very tempting early price of ₹64,999 for the first 1,000 buyers, it’s worth a close look if you’re shopping for a city EV. Deliveries start in January 2026 and bookings are open with a refundable ₹499 reservation.
Before you commit, I recommend confirming exact variant specs and taking a short test ride. If you want, I can fetch the official Numeros launch press release or compare the n-First vs specific rivals on price, range and features — which would you prefer?
