Proudly designed, engineered, developed, and manufactured entirely in India, the Rorr EZ exemplifies our commitment to the ‘Make in India’ mission. Understanding the needs and expectations of daily commuters, the Rorr EZ is crafted to provide the reliability, efficiency, and modern features essential for navigating city life with ease and style. As the automotive landscape has evolved from geared scooters to gearless models and cars transitioning from manual to automatic, it’s time for motorcycles to embrace this innovation. The Rorr EZ signifies this important shift towards automatic riding in motorcycles, providing an easy to ride and stylish solution that empowers riders to embrace the future of mobility with confidence.”

The Oben Rorr EZ also gets an optional comprehensive warranty package, with coverage up to 5 years or 75,000 kms.
