MATTER Aera
MATTER Aera is India's first-ever geared electric two-wheeler, and the company has introduced 22nd century smart ownership plans: P-a-a-S and BNPL. So, let's talk about each of these in detail:
P-a-a-S
Customers have the option to get the Aera 5000+ at an introductory price of Rs 1.29 lakh and pay just Rs 1.16 per km for battery usage. Essentially, youre renting the battery and paying based on how much you ride - similar to the Battery-as-a-Service model seen in cars.
BNPL
In this scheme, MATTER says customers can pay a portion of the total cost upfront and then pay the remaining amount through low-cost, flexible EMIs via financing, making ownership easier on the pocket.
Mohal Lalbhai, Founder & CEO, MATTER Group, said:
"With the Aera 5000+ and our 22nd Century Ownership Plans, electric mobility is no longer just environmentally smart - it's financially smart too. Riders can now separate what they pay for the vehicle from what they pay for battery usage, making EVs an affordable, future-ready choice. Quite simply, EVs are always smarter and more cost-effective than petrol bikes. At MATTER, we are redefining the present and reimagining the future - not just in tech innovation, but also in the way you can own the technology."
- HyperShift Gearbox - 4-speed manual + 3 ride modes = 12 dynamic combinations.
- Liquid-Cooled Powertrain - Engineered for India's climate & traffic.
- Smart 7 Touchscreen Dashboard Navigation, calls, music, ride stats, OTA updates.
- 5kWh Battery Pack - IDC-certified 172 km range.

Verdict
We all know that nothing can replace the experience of shifting gears and feeling the power and torque take us to high speeds. That break and rush of torque are irreplaceable, and no electric motor can surpass that. Thankfully, the engineers at MATTER cared about this fact and created India's first-ever 4-speed gearbox e-bike, built with smartness.
