The E-Luna is available with three battery options - 1.7 kWh, 2 kWh, offering 110 km of range and a 3 kWh unit with 150 km range. The company claims a running cost of 10 paise per km.

A 2.2 kW hub motor enables the electric moped to reach a claimed top speed of 50 km/h. It rides on 16-inch wire-spoke wheels with a telescopic fork at the front and dual shock absorbers at the rear.

In terms of features, the Kinetic E-Luna comes with a digital instrument console with a Distance to Empty (DTE) indicator, a USB charging port, three riding modes, a side-stand sensor and a combi-braking system.
