Tork Motors has officially pulled the covers off the 2025 edition of its electric motorcycle, the Kratos R, bringing in a fresh wave of updates that signal its growing maturity in the Indian EV space.
The Pune-based startup, which made headlines as one of India’s early electric motorcycle manufacturers, seems to have taken customer feedback seriously with this update.
Sharper Design and a Cleaner Look
The 2025 Tork Kratos R doesn’t reinvent the wheel but makes subtle changes that go a long way in improving its street presence. The overall silhouette remains familiar, but the design now feels more cohesive and futuristic. One of the most noticeable tweaks is the redesigned headlamp unit, which now sports a sleeker LED setup that gives the bike a more aggressive stance. The body panels have also been refined for better aerodynamics and a cleaner finish.
Tork has introduced new color options with bolder graphics, aiming to give the bike a youthful appeal without making it overly flashy. The updates aren’t dramatic but are enough to make the motorcycle feel fresh for 2025.
Improved Range and Efficiency
While the design refresh is welcome, it’s the performance and range upgrade that will likely grab the most attention. The Kratos R now claims a real-world range of up to 150 km, which is a slight but meaningful jump from the previous model. This enhancement is reportedly due to software optimization and improved battery management systems.
Tork has also worked on the bike’s thermal efficiency, which should help in better performance during long commutes or in hot weather — a crucial factor considering India’s varied climate.
Better Features, But Not Overloaded
In terms of features, the 2025 Kratos R continues with its minimalist but functional approach. It retains its digital instrument cluster, smartphone connectivity, and ride modes. However, the UI of the display has been updated to be more intuitive and user-friendly. OTA updates are expected to play a bigger role in the future, as Tork seems to be building towards a more connected ecosystem.
The regenerative braking system has also been fine-tuned for smoother operation, and the improved motor controller now delivers more consistent throttle response, especially in city riding conditions.
Built for Indian Roads
Tork claims that the chassis and suspension have been adjusted slightly to offer better comfort and control. With Indian road conditions in mind, the Kratos R maintains its durable underbody and high ground clearance, something riders in cities with unpredictable road surfaces will appreciate.
Braking duties are still handled by disc brakes at both ends, with CBS (Combined Braking System) offered as standard. While some expected ABS in this update, it seems Tork is still reserving that for future iterations.
Aiming at the Daily Commuter
With its range improvements and refined design, the Kratos R continues to target the daily urban commuter. It’s not trying to compete with high-end performance bikes but rather aims to offer a reliable, stylish, and eco-friendly alternative to petrol-powered motorcycles in the 150cc segment.
Price and Availability
While the official pricing of the 2025 edition hasn’t been drastically changed, the company is expected to reveal introductory offers in select cities soon. Bookings are open through the brand’s official website and experience centers.

Final Word
The Tork Kratos R 2025 edition may not be a complete overhaul, but it shows steady progress in a segment that’s becoming increasingly competitive. With a slightly longer range, smarter electronics, and a sharper design, it brings just enough to stay relevant and appealing. For Indian riders exploring an electric alternative that’s homegrown and practical, the Kratos R continues to be a name worth watching.
