When India becomes the new California and former Tesla engineers finally make a bike you can afford even if you're not the son of an oil tycoon. It's the Zeno Emara ADV!
Woman was founded by former Tesla executive Michael Spencer, who worked on the Model 3/Y and the Supercharger network. The team, made up of experts from Lucid, Apple TV, Gogor, and Sun Mobility, is building the vehicle. Zeno Emara ADV, which wants to surpass 150 cc petrol racers – but remain affordable. A different goal than a “trendy” bike – practical and robust.
Power and range – a blast without compromise
The Zeno Emara ADV is powered by 10 kW (13.4 hp), which gives it a top speed of 100 km/h (62 mph). This thing pulls you uphill without caveman rhythmic tactics – it has no trouble with up to 30° incline tests.
The main LFP 4 kWh battery provides a real-world range of 60 miles (100 km), and with 2 additional batteries (hot-swap) you can increase the range to 120 miles+ (200 km). Charging at home takes 5–6 hours, with fast DC chargers only 90 minutes.
Zeno Emara ADV chassis: ready for mud and bumps
A 19-inch wheel on an upside-down fork, 190 mm of ground clearance – plus an adjustable mono-shock – means that no need to bend over rocks or take a dusty walk. Dual disc brakes, a robust frame structure and frame protection allow you to ride on gravel without fear of damage.
Advanced “smart” equipment for serious adventures
Color TFT screen, Bluetooth, GPS navigation and USB ports – this is not a gold-plated button for Instagram, this is real technology that actually works in practice. LED lights illuminate the path in fog and darkness, and the cockpit makes you feel not just like a tourist – but like a more modern driver.
Practical as a Swiss Army Knife – Zeno Emara ADV
The empty weight of 160 kg means that you can easily move the Zeno Emara ADV by hand. Load capacity up to 250 kg - you can easily take your partner, luggage and tent. Optional up to 150 l of additional luggage space. The human engineers really went all out - this is not just a motorcycle, this is a personal expedition unit.
A price that brings a smile – and ignites thought
The base Emara costs between ₹64,000 and ₹119,000 (~₹1,999-₹2,399), and is currently being launched with full-ownership or BaaS (Battery-as-a-Service) packages. The Emara ADV, with an expected price of around ₹1,700-₹2,000, will still remain below the magic luxury mark, but with features you won't find elsewhere.
An ecosystem, not just an engine
Zeno builds charging stations, swap stations, flexible battery subscription models – all with the goal of enabling accessibility in cities, rural areas, homes without a stable network. Swap takes ~25 seconds.
Comparison with the competition
For a similar price, you only get maxi-scooters or outdated equipment that counts more for glitter than functionality. ADV segment for 2,000 $? Nothing like that offers Bluetooth, swappable battery, 19-inch wheels and 250 kg of payload combined.
Conclusion – Emara ADV as a silent revolutionary warrior
It’s not just an engine – it’s a hard-working, functional system for moving people and goods where other drivers drive in the stillness of EV hype. If the Zeno delivers on its promise of a sub-£2,000 $ price, you get: enough power, range, off-road capability, tech features and a real ecosystem for everyday use. No noise, no smell, no filling up at gas stations – and with enough character to pay for it with a smile.
Gasoline romantics? They say it has no soul – but this is electronics with a purpose. The Emara ADV is not a sleek gold-plated alternative – it is a beefed-up version of the engine that long-distance riders ride every day. Silence can be revolutionary.
