Yatri, Nepal’s prominent EV startup, is planning to upgrade the range of its cafe racer venture P1. The company also plans to launch its second-generation electric motorbike, P2, soon.
Yatri could soon bring the upgraded variant of the P1 motorbike to the market. After the Transport Management Department started registering EVs with a new working procedure, Yatri geared up to roll out an upgraded Yatri Project 1 EV in the market. The cafe racer-themed EV was launched back in April 2021 alongside its senior sibling, Yatri P0.
The Nepali-owned company has 100 of its P1 units plying the roads.
For now, the current Yatri P1 offers 110 kilometers of range. After the upgrade, the two-wheeler EV will offer 200 kilometers on a full charge. The company said to upgrade the range to address the demands of the customers.

Despite the monumental upgrade, the price of the motorbike will stay the same. The upgraded variant will arrive in the markets after around 6 months.
Yatri Project two (P2) launch date
Yatri could launch P2 (Yatri Project Two) electric vehicle in late 2025. The company hasn’t disclosed an exact time frame for it, but the testing has started with a temporary registration number plate.
