MATTER has officially launched its flagship electric motorbike—the AERA—in Bengaluru. The launch follows the successful inauguration of MATTER’s world-class Manufacturing Hub and signals the brand’s intent to accelerate market expansion and redefine the future of mobility across India. The MATTER AERA is now available at a pre-registration showroom price starting from ₹1.88 lakhs. As part of a limited-time launch offer, the first 500 riders in Bengaluru can own the AERA at a special price of ₹1.79 lakhs. This exclusive deal also includes a free lifetime battery warranty worth ₹15,000—a bold move that reflects MATTER’s gratitude to its early adopters.
To bring the experience closer to the city’s passionate riders, MATTER is set to open its first Experience Hub in BTM Layout – 2nd Stage, near Vysya Bank Colony on 100ft Road. This interactive space will offer potential customers the chance to explore the AERA up close, take test rides, and engage with the brand’s vision for sustainable mobility.
Speaking at the launch, Mohal Lalbhai, Founder and Group CEO of MATTER, shared his excitement:
“There’s no better city to lead this journey than Bengaluru—where innovation isn’t just an idea, it’s a way of life. Every lane, every rider here resonates with purpose and progress. The AERA isn’t just a bike—it’s the 22nd-century motorbike. It delivers the thrill of a rocket and the practicality your pocket loves. With our in-house developed Hypershift manual gearbox, liquid-cooled powertrain, and connected tech, AERA brings together performance, emotion, and sustainability like never before.”
Bookings are now live on matter.in and will also be available at the upcoming Experience Hub in BTM Layout. Deliveries are scheduled to begin soon.
The MATTER AERA sets a new benchmark in electric mobility, breaking conventional stereotypes. Designed specifically for Indian roads and riders—and fine-tuned for a dynamic city like Bengaluru—the AERA blends cutting-edge performance with intelligent features and emotive design.
