BGauss OoWah
The BGauss OoWah is a low-speed electric scooter priced from Rs 89,990 to Rs 1,17,990 ex-showroom, aimed at riders who want a simple, home-chargeable runabout for daily errands and short commutes rather than a highway machine. It comes in two variants, EX and MAX, with ARAI-claimed range of 105 km and 145 km respectively; BGauss has not published independently tested real-world figures for either, so treat these as claimed, not confirmed, numbers. With a 60 kmph top speed and a removable lithium-ion battery you can charge indoors, it is built for people who want an EV that fits an apartment lifestyle without installing a home charging point.
Is the BGauss OoWah right for you?
Best for
- First-time EV buyers who want a removable battery they can carry indoors and charge at a normal wall socket, with no dedicated home charger install
- Daily city commutes and errands within a 60 kmph speed cap, where the MAX's 145 km ARAI range gives a comfortable multi-day buffer between charges
- Budget-conscious buyers shopping under Rs 1.2 lakh who prioritise a lower entry price - the OoWah EX starts at Rs 89,990 - over maximum range or speed
- Riders who charge overnight and do not need rapid top-ups, since the standard charger takes 5 to 6.5 hours for a full charge
Think twice if
- Anyone needing highway or open-road speed - the 60 kmph top speed limits the OoWah strictly to city and town use
- Buyers who need quick charging on the go - the standard 500W charger takes about 5 hr 9 min (EX) to 6.5 hours (MAX) for a full charge, and the faster 1350W charger that reaches 80% in roughly 2 to 2.1 hours is an optional extra, not standard equipment
- Buyers who want every spec confirmed online before visiting a showroom - BGauss's official listing is thin on detail beyond the headline numbers, so verify warranty, service network and fine print at the dealer

FAQ
What is the real-world range of the BGauss OoWah?
BGauss has not published independently tested real-world range for either variant. The only figures available are ARAI-claimed: 105 km for the OoWah EX and 145 km for the OoWah MAX. Expect real-world range to run lower than these claimed numbers, as is typical for ARAI test-cycle figures.
How long does the BGauss OoWah take to charge?
On the standard 500W charger, the EX takes about 5 hours 9 minutes for a full charge and the MAX takes about 6.5 hours (roughly 5 hr 15 min to 80%). An optional 1350W fast charger cuts this to about 2 to 2.1 hours for an 80% charge, but it is not included as standard - you pay extra for it.
Should I buy the OoWah EX or the OoWah MAX?
Pick the EX (Rs 89,990, 2.3 kWh battery, 105 km ARAI range) if your daily riding is short and you want the lowest entry price. Pick the MAX (Rs 1,17,990, 3 kWh battery, 145 km ARAI range) if you ride longer distances regularly or want fewer charging cycles per week. Both use the same 2.4 kW motor, so performance is similar; the difference is battery size and price.
Can I charge the BGauss OoWah at home without installing a charger?
Yes. Both variants use a removable lithium-ion battery pack that you can take out and charge on a standard AC socket indoors, which is useful if you live in an apartment without a dedicated EV charging point.
Is the BGauss OoWah good value against rival electric scooters?
At Rs 89,990 to Rs 1,17,990 ex-showroom, the OoWah undercuts many rivals on entry price and offers a removable battery for flexible charging. The trade-offs are a 60 kmph top speed that rules out highway use and no verified real-world range data, so weigh it against rivals with tested range figures before deciding purely on price.
