In Gujarat, the firm has over 5,000 customers and plans to treble that number by 2022. The Okinawa Ridege+, Okinawa Praise Pro, and Okinawa iPraise+ are the three scooters that the business sells. These scooters have smart features including an anti-theft sensor, a side-stand sensor, keyless entry, and a “Find My Scooter” GPS tracker for increased user safety.

The Okina Praise Pro is now Rs 57848 (down from Rs 84,795), while the Okina Ridge+ is now Rs 44,391 (69,000) — a Rs 24,609 reduction. The Okina iPraise+ is currently available for Rs 79,708, a saving of Rs 37,892 over the initial price of Rs 1,17,600. The revised rates will take effect on July 1, 2021.
