Launch early 2020

Assembled in India by Mahindra, the Peugeot e-Ludix epitomizes the new electric offering of the Lion brand. Equivalent to a 50cc electric scooter powered by a motor and a removable battery provided by German supplier Bosch, this small electric scooter has a top speed of 45 km / h and promises up to 50 kilometers of battery life on a single charge.

In France, its deliveries will begin in early 2020 for individuals with a no-deposit offer of 99 euros per month. Companies will also be able to access the e-Ludix Pro version, which will go on sale a little later this year.
