The Ampere Magnus 60 lead-acid variant has been discontinued from the Indian market. The company has replaced the scooter with a new and better-equipped Lithium-Ion model of the electric scooter, called the Ampere Magnus Pro.
The Magnus 60 was one of the company's low-speed electric scooters and It retailed at a starting price of Rs 44,699 (ex-showroom). The Magnus 60 electric scooter came equipped with a 60Volt 20Ah lead-acid battery pack.
