Features8

The new Kinetic DX will certainly appeal to those who were fans of the original, and would like to revisit the old days on a modern rendition. Sure, it may not emit the same 2-stroke drone, and there’s no smoke either, but this appears to be a very tastefully-done resurrection of an icon from the past, and expectations are high. LU: The Kinetic DX has come back in an electric avatar, featuring the familiar design evoking a sense of nostalgia, but with modern touches here and there. It is also equipped with properly-modern features and the price point is quite attractive.

Kinetic DX Detailed Review

Looks And Design 8

• The Kinetic DX evokes a sense of nostalgia with its familiar design, which can be traced back to the 1990s. However, there are some modern touches, such as the new LED headlamp with turn indicators in the shape of the Kinetic logo, along with another lighting element placed on the apron. The front apron has also been redesigned slightly, and it gets a smoother minimalist treatment keeping current design trends.
• The new DX retains the familiar side profile, which consists of flat and smooth panels devoid of any decals and creases. The air vents from the original DX have also been retained, and it also gets flush-fitting retractable footpegs. The tri-air vents towards the rear have also been retained, further making it more recognisable.
• The rear section of the DX also remains familiar. However, the DX electric does not come with a spare wheel mounted on the grab rail, unlike the original DX.The tri-section tail lamp has also been replaced with a modern LED unit featuring the Kinetic branding embossed in the middle.
• There are a total of five colour options to choose from on the new DX. These include Black, Blue, Red, White, and Grey. These colours are a callback to the original DX, which was also available with similar paint schemes back in the day.

• Unlike its predecessor, the new Kinetic DX is powered by a hub-mounted electric motor which produces varying output figures depending on the variant.
