Vlektra Bolt vs. Road Prince E-Go vs. Jolta eBike: How Does It Compare?
Vlektra claims the Bolt is the fastest electric motorcycle in Pakistan, but how does it stack up against more affordable options like the Road Prince E-Go and Jolta eBikes?
Here’s a quick side-by-side breakdown:
| Feature | Vlektra Bolt | Road Prince E-Go | Jolta JE-70L |
| Top Speed | 105 km/h (claimed) | ~100 km/h (disputed) | ~60 km/h |
| Range (Per Charge) | Up to 150 km | ~100 km | 100–110 km |
| Charging Time | 3–3.5 hours | 4–5 hours | 3 hours |
| Motor Power | 3,000W BLDC | 1,500W (approx.) | 1,500W BLDC |
| Battery Type | LiFePO₄ (72V) | Lithium-ion (72V, 24Ah) | LiFePO₄ (60V, 30Ah) |
| Estimated Price | PKR 584,000 | PKR 260,000 | PKR 225,900 |
What This Means for You
- Speed and Performance: If you’re looking for highway-capable speed, the Bolt clearly outpaces others at a price. Road Prince E-Go might come close, but it lacks consistent real-world validation.
- Battery and Range: The Bolt offers a claimed 150 km range, surpassing most rivals. However, both Jolta and Road Prince hover near the 100 km mark—adequate for daily city commutes.
- Price Gap: The Bolt is over twice as expensive as the E-Go or Jolta. Whether that’s worth it depends on your need for speed, style, and extended battery life.
While the Bolt positions itself as a premium performance EV, Jolta and Road Prince cater to budget-conscious riders looking for practical urban mobility.
End Note
The Vlektra Bolt enters Pakistan’s EV market with strong claims – high speed, long range, and quick charging.
If those numbers hold true in real-world use, it could become a milestone for local electric mobility. For now, it remains a promising but yet-to-be-proven contender in Pakistan’s push toward cleaner transport.
