PURE EV eTryst 350
The PURE EV eTryst 350 is a low-speed electric motorcycle priced at Rs 1,49,999 ex-showroom, aimed at first-time EV two-wheeler buyers who want the cheapest way onto an electric motorcycle without chasing performance. PURE EV claims an ARAI range of 140 km per charge, but real-world range hasn't been independently tested, so treat that number as a claimed ceiling, not a promise. With a single variant, three ride modes, and a full charge that takes about 6 hours on a home AC socket, it's built for short city runs and overnight charging, not highway distance.
Is the PURE EV eTryst 350 right for you?
Best for
- First-time EV buyers who want the lowest entry price into an electric motorcycle, at Rs 1,49,999 ex-showroom
- Short daily city commutes and errands, where an 85 kmph top speed and ARAI-claimed 140 km range are sufficient
- Households with a dedicated home AC socket for overnight charging, since there's no fast-charging option at all
- Riders who value ride-mode flexibility (Drive, Crossover, Thrill) and basic safety aids like hill-start and downhill assist over outright speed
Think twice if
- Highway or long-distance riders - 85 kmph top speed and a roughly 6-hour full charge make it unsuitable for anything beyond city and suburban roads
- Anyone who needs a verified real-world range number - PURE EV publishes range as a marketed 'PUREMileage' band rather than an independently tested figure, so the 140 km ARAI claim should be read as best-case
- Buyers outside cities with an established PURE EV service network, given the brand's limited nationwide service footprint

Charging and living with it
Charging: AC home-socket charging; approx 6 hours for a full charge; no fast charging. Battery fixed. Most owners charge overnight at home; plan public or workplace charging for longer trips. Charging is strictly a home affair: plug the fixed 3.5 kWh battery into a regular AC socket and budget about 6 hours for a full charge, since there's no fast-charging option. That makes overnight charging the norm rather than quick top-ups on the move, so plan parking around access to a socket.

FAQ
What is the real-world range of the PURE EV eTryst 350?
PURE EV claims 140 km per charge under ARAI testing. There's no independently verified real-world figure yet, and PURE EV itself markets range as a 'PUREMileage' band rather than a single fixed number, so actual distance will vary with rider weight, speed and terrain.
How long does the eTryst 350 take to charge?
About 6 hours for a full charge from a standard home AC socket. There is no fast-charging option, so it works best with overnight charging rather than quick top-ups during the day.
Which variant of the eTryst 350 should I buy?
There's only one variant, priced at Rs 1,49,999 ex-showroom with a 3.5 kWh fixed battery and a 4 kW motor, so there's no trim decision to make. The only daily choice is which of the three ride modes - Drive, Crossover or Thrill - suits your ride.
What is the running cost like compared to a petrol motorcycle?
PURE EV hasn't published a specific running-cost figure for the eTryst 350, so an exact per-km number isn't available. In general, electric two-wheelers with small batteries like this 3.5 kWh unit cost a fraction of petrol per kilometre to run, and charging happens overnight at home instead of at a pump.
Is the eTryst 350 good value against other electric motorcycles?
At Rs 1,49,999 ex-showroom, it's positioned as one of the most affordable electric motorcycles on sale in India, backed by an optional 10-year/50,000 km battery warranty, hill-start and downhill assist, and reverse mode. Its 85 kmph top speed and 6-hour charging keep it a city commuter rather than a highway option, so value depends on whether you need range and speed or just an affordable daily runabout.
