The electric scooter market in India is going to see another big addition as ZELIO E Mobility is set to launch the facelifted version of its popular Legender e-scooter in July 2025. The updated model promises to deliver better performance, modern features and extended range to cater to the growing needs of urban commuters.
Design and Visuals
The upcoming Legender facelift gets a complete design overhaul and transforms the scooter’s visual identity. ZELIO has added new vibrant graphics and refined body styling to give the scooter a more sporty and modern look. The design team has focused on creating a sportier look that appeals to younger riders while keeping the practical elements that made the original model successful.
The refreshed design includes new color options beyond the traditional red and black. These new options give riders more customization choices so they can pick the one that suits their style. The visuals extend to improved lighting and refined body panels that adds to the scooter’s modernity.
Performance and Range
At the heart of the new Legender is a 60/72V BLDC motor that provides reliable performance for urban commuting. The scooter has a top speed of 25 kmph which puts it in the low speed electric vehicle category. This speed limitation is a big advantage for Indian consumers as vehicles in this category don’t require RTO registration or driving license to operate.
The highlight of the facelifted Legender is its 150km range on a single charge. This extended range addresses one of the biggest concerns of electric vehicle adoption and makes the scooter suitable for daily commuting, weekend trips and extended urban travel without range anxiety.
Energy efficiency is another strong point of the updated model as the scooter consumes around 1.5 units of electricity per full charge. This is extremely low and means very low operating cost making the Legender an economical option for budget conscious consumers looking for sustainable transportation.
Advanced Features and Connectivity
The July 2025 facelift comes with several modern convenience features that makes the overall experience better. The addition of USB charging port addresses the need of the hour for device connectivity. Riders can charge their smartphones and other electronic devices while on the move. This feature is super useful for students, professionals and delivery personnel who use their mobile devices throughout the day.
Security features include anti-theft alarm system that gives users peace of mind while parking their vehicle at different places. Keyless ignition system eliminates the need of traditional keys and reduces the risk of key related issues. Central locking system further enhances security and simplifies the vehicle access.
The digital instrument console shows speed, battery level, trip distance and other relevant information in a simple and easy to read format. Parking gear adds an extra layer of convenience to help you park your scooter in different parking scenarios.
Technical Specifications and Build Quality
The new Legender has telescopic front forks and hydraulic rear suspension for a smooth ride on various road surfaces. This is very important for Indian roads which have uneven surfaces, speed breakers and varying terrain.
The braking system has disc brakes at the front and drum brakes at the rear for reliable braking in all riding conditions. This mixed braking setup balances performance and cost while meeting safety standards for urban commuting.
The scooter has alloy wheels with tubeless tyres for stability, maneuverability and puncture resistance. The wheel size is 12 inches at the front and 10 inches at the rear for a perfect balance of handling and ride comfort.
LED lighting technology provides visibility and safety through efficient headlight, tail light and turn signals. Daytime Running Lights (DRLs) adds to the visibility during day time and to the scooter’s modern looks.
Market Positioning and Pricing
The current Legender variants are priced between Rs 60,073 and Rs 85,500 depending on battery and feature combinations. The facelifted version will be priced in the same range and will offer more value with better features and performance.
The pricing positions the Legender as an affordable option for middle class people looking for electric mobility solutions. When you consider the low operating cost, minimal maintenance and potential fuel savings, the total cost of ownership becomes very attractive compared to petrol powered vehicles.
Environmental Impact and Sustainability
The environmental benefits of the Legender goes beyond zero emissions during operation. The energy efficiency means that every km travelled requires minimal electricity consumption, reducing the overall environmental footprint even when you account for power generation emissions.
As India’s electricity grid becomes more and more renewable, the environmental benefits of electric scooters like the Legender will only get better. The reduced noise pollution compared to internal combustion engine vehicles also makes for better city living.
Market Outlook and Competition
The July 2025 launch of the updated Legender comes at a time when the Indian electric scooter market is growing rapidly. Government incentives, rising fuel prices and increasing environmental awareness are driving demand for electric mobility solutions.
ZELIO E Mobility’s focus on designing vehicles for Indian roads gives the Legender an edge over brands which adapt international designs for the Indian market. The company has over 200 outlets across urban, semi-urban and rural areas for comprehensive coverage and service support.
Conclusion
ZELIO Legender facelift is a big leap in affordable electric mobility for Indian consumers. With extended range, modern features, design and license free operation, it checks all the boxes of consumer requirements and is economical.
July 2025 launch will attract urban commuters, students and professionals looking for reliable, economical and eco friendly transportation. The vehicle’s specs and pricing will compete in the low speed electric scooter segment and contribute to India’s electric mobility growth.
