Surge 32. (Doc. Riderpart)

JAKARTA - MotoCrop Hero, a motorcycle manufacturer from India, continues to present the latest innovations in the two-wheel segment. This time by introducing the concept of Surge 32, a vehicle that is considered an antimainstream.

Launching Rideapart, Friday, February 2, Hero described S32 as a modular electric vehicle that can function as an electric scooter for personal mobility or as a three-wheeled vehicle for cargo or passenger transportation.

The S32 consists of two main components, namely an independent electric scooter and a front-wheeled vehicle. In other words, the S32 buyer actually gets a two-in-one vehicle. Another uniqueness is the manufacturer's claim that it only takes three minutes to convert the scooter into a three-wheeled vehicle.

Both scooters and the back have their own motorbikes and batteries. When combined, the driver can use the handlebar and scooter controls to drive this vehicle through an electronic connector that connects the scooter with the rear compartment.

Specifically, the S32 lattice has up to 6 kW of power or about 8 hp, while the back with different weights has 13.5 hp of power. Battery technology comes from Hero EV subsidiary, Vida.

It should be noted that Surge S32 is currently still in concept, and there is no specific launch date yet. However, the collaboration between Hero MotoCorp and the Ministry of Transport of Indian Roads to create a new vehicle registration category, called L2-5, shows their seriousness in realizing this concept come true.
