A Game-Changer for Indian Electric Motorcycling
Matter has redefined the electric motorcycle landscape in India with the launch of the Aera, the country’s first geared electric bike. Priced between ₹1.83 lakh and ₹1.94 lakh (ex-showroom), the Matter Aera combines the thrill of manual shifting with the efficiency and innovation of electric mobility, targeting riders who want both performance and cutting-edge technology.
Powertrain: Electric Performance Meets Manual Control
At the heart of the Matter Aera is an 11.5 kW liquid-cooled Interior Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor paired with a 4-speed manual gearbox—a first for an Indian EV bike. The 5-kWh fixed lithium-ion battery delivers a certified range of 172 km on a full charge, while fast charging can replenish the battery in just 2 hours.
Advanced Features and Smart Connectivity
The Aera stands out with its 7-inch TFT touchscreen display that offers Bluetooth and WiFi connectivity, navigation, call/message alerts, and advanced ride statistics. Riders can choose between Eco, City, and Sport modes to tailor performance to their needs. The bike also supports OTA updates, keyless ignition, and features a unique 3.5L underseat storage compartment.
Safety, Comfort, and Riding
Dynamics Safety is prioritized with single-channel ABS, petal-type disc brakes at both ends, and a robust chassis. The Aera uses telescopic front forks and twin rear shock absorbers for a comfortable ride, while 168 kg kerb weight and 183 mm ground clearance ensure stability and versatility
Design, Variants, and Warranty
The Aera is available in two variants—5000 and 5000+—with color options like Cosmic Blue. Both variants share the same powertrain and features, with minor differences in tech and finish. Matter offers a 3-year standard warranty on the battery and roadside assistance for added peace of mind.
Why Matter Aera Stands Out:
India’s first electric bike with a 4-speed gearbox
Liquid-cooled motor and battery for optimal performance
Comprehensive digital and connectivity suite
Practical range and fast charging for daily use
Competitive pricing and robust warranty
With the Aera, Matter has set a new benchmark in India’s electric two-wheeler space, blending the familiarity of gears with the future of electric mobility. The Aera is not just an EV—it’s a statement for riders who want innovation, excitement, and everyday practicality in one bold package.
