Okinawa Praise is an electric scooter that wants to stay ahead of the game and give tough competition to the market leaders like Honda Activa and TVS Jupiter. Here are a few things to know about the scooter.

The electric scooters we have seen so far in India have frankly been doomed partly due to their looks but Okinawa Praise is no regular competitor. With premium looks and an edgy design, it also offers a full LED headlamp and tail-lamp cluster which puts it in the league of best-looking scooters in India.

Features Of the Electric Scooter

Okinawa is a relatively new player in the market and it knew that for its electric scooters to stand out in India they had to load it up with features. The Okinawa Praise hence comes with a fully digital instrument cluster, side stand sensor, and keyless entry which are a first in the competition.
