After much anticipation—six years' worth, in fact—Indian electric mobility brand Tork finally unleashed the Kratos in 2022. The electric naked bike just completed its rookie season but that isn’t stopping Tork from upgrading the platform in 2023. That means the new Kratos X premium variant replaces the previous base model while the Kratos R benefits from minor updates.
Debuting at Auto Expo 2023 in Greater Noida, India, the performance-oriented Kratos R returns with refined styling and a blacked-finished battery and motor. On the electronic front, the R trim also earns a new live dash, fast-charging port, and upgraded front and rear indicators. The new fast-charging capability allows the e-roadster to regain 80 percent of its 4-kWh lithium-ion battery’s capacity in one hour.
