Kinetic DX Wins Viewer’s Choice Award 2026
There are awards that recognise engineering. There are awards that recognise innovation. Then there are awards where the final choice comes from the people themselves. The Kinetic DX has been named the Viewer’s Choice EV Scooter of the Year at the Times Drive Auto Summit & Awards 2026.
This recognition is significant for Kinetic EV—not simply because it adds another milestone to the Kinetic DX journey, but because it reflects how the Kinetic DX has been embraced by the people it was designed for. A scooter can have all the right specifications on paper, but true success is measured by how it performs and connects with people in the real world. What truly matters is how the Kinetic DX feels when people see it, ride it and begin to imagine it as part of their everyday lives. That is where the Kinetic DX story becomes truly meaningful.
Why the Viewer’s Choice Award matters
The words Viewer’s Choice give this award an identity that separates it from all others. It represents the opinion of people who follow the world explore new vehicles and form their own views about what deserves attention.
For the Kinetic DX, being recognised in the electric scooter category is a meaningful milestone at a time when electric mobility is becoming an increasingly important part of everyday transportation in India. The Kinetic DX brings together the best of both worlds—something familiar and something entirely new. The familiar part is the name. The new part is everything that powers it forward.
Familiar name ready for a generation.
In India, Kinetic is a name that needs no introduction. The brand has been part of the country’s two-wheeler journey for decades, becoming a familiar presence on Indian roads. For an entire generation of riders, the DX name carries memories of a distinctive era in mobility.
Bringing the DX back was never simply about recreating a scooter from the past. It was about understanding what made the original so memorable and thoughtfully reimagining those qualities for the needs, expectations and lifestyle of today’s riders.
That meant creating a scooter that distinctly reflects the Kinetic identity while bringing together the technology, convenience and practicality expected by today’s riders. “The Legend Is Reborn” truly represents this evolution.
Kinetic is not simply about moving forward; it is about taking something people remember and giving it a meaningful place on today’s roads.
What makes the Kinetic DX different?
The Kinetic DX has been created with one idea: everyday electric mobility must be practical, comfortable and enjoyable. Its all‑metal body gives the Kinetic DX a solid look while its design adds familiar Kinetic DNA to a more modern shape.
The story does not end with just how the Kinetic DX looks. The Kinetic DX has been developed around the needs of its riders with features that make regular journeys easier.
Designed for convenience
The Kinetic DX has 37 litres of under‑seat storage giving riders plenty of space for the items they truly need.
Whether it is a backpack, shopping bags, daily essentials or other small items having storage can make a big difference when the Kinetic DX is used daily. The flat floorboard of the Kinetic DX adds to its practicality making it easier to get on and off and giving flexibility for everyday items.
Technology that stays simple
Modern tech is useful only when modern tech makes life easier. Modern tech should not make life more complicated.
The Kinetic DX offers features like Easy Key, which gives start and passcode control. Easy Charge is also there designed to make charging easier. With the MyKiney app riders can stay connected to the Kinetic DX check info and track journeys, battery health and charging status.
These features are not tech, for tech’s sake. They are there to make owning the Kinetic DX a bit.
Electric mobility with an identity
The Kinetic DX runs on Range-X LFP battery technology. This brings together Kinetic’s electric mobility vision with a battery solution known for lasting and staying safe.
Technology is just one side of the story. The other side is how well the scooter fits into life.
It could be the morning commute to work, a quick stop at the market, a ride to drop someone off, or simply crossing town with the freedom to go wherever the day takes you. The best technology is the kind that feels effortless—you don’t have to think about it; you simply use it. Bridging Kinetic’s heritage with an electric future, the Kinetic DX holds a special place in the brand’s evolving story. The original DX became a familiar name among Indian families at a time when scooters were an integral part of everyday travel. Today the roads are different. The technology is different. The way people think about moving around is different, and electric vehicles are starting a completely new part of the story. The Kinetic DX is right in the middle of that, it has the name and the style that people connect with Kinetic while being made for a future that’s more and more electric
That balance matters because a rich history should never mean standing still. Its true value lies in giving us the confidence and inspiration to move forward.
A recognition at a time for electric mobility
Indias electric two‑wheeler segment has grown a lot. India’s electric two‑wheeler segment sees riders choosing electric vehicles for their daily commute.
As options increase the expectations from scooters are also changing. People are looking beyond range.
- They want design.
- They want convenience.
- They want technology.
- They want practicality.
- They want a vehicle that feels right for their everyday lives.
The Kinetic DX has been created with these expectations in mind. Winning the Viewer’s Choice EV Scooter of the Year recognition at the Times Drive Auto Summit & Awards 2026 is therefore a milestone, for the product and the larger Kinetic EV journey.
More than a trophy
An award is a moment of recognition. But a product earns its place every single day. The Kinetic DX will continue to prove itself where it matters most—on the roads it was built for, through the everyday journeys of people riding to work, college, the market and everywhere in between. That is where the real connection begins: between a scooter and the person who rides it. For Kinetic the journey is not about making a great scooter. It’s also about creating an electric mobility experience around that scooter. Every step of ownership counts. From dealerships to service support from customer care to product testing.
Because reviving a name carries a big responsibility. You have to make sure the new story lives up, to the one. The next chapter must be worthy of everything that came before.
The road ahead
The Viewer’s Choice Award marks a special moment for the Kinetic DX, but it is not the destination. It reflects how the vision behind the product has resonated with the people it was created for. A name that feels familiar. A new electric heart that powers the journey. Technology that is modern and smart. Functionality that fits into life. A design that speaks honestly, no hiding, no pretending. That mix of traits is what makes the Kinetic DX stand out.
As Kinetic EV grows in India’s electric mobility scene the purpose stays clear: build vehicles that people love using while helping to define how India travels in the future. The Kinetic DX started as a name that people recognized and now this is shaping an era of mobility. Winning the Viewer’s Choice EV Scooter of the Year 2026 brings pride for mobility. The real story goes deeper, for electric mobility.
It is about a legend returning to Indian roads in a bold new avatar. The past gave it a name. The present gave it a purpose. The road ahead is ready. The Legend Is Reborn.
