Simple Energy have filed trademarks for not one, but twelve names in India. These new names could be used as names of new EV products from the company or a class of products planned to be unveiled in the coming months and years.
Simple Energy files 12 trademarks
Bengaluru-based EV start-up, Simple Energy, has filed trademark applications for as many as 12 brand names, hinting at its possible future line-up of electric scooters. The company has applied trademarks for Simple Two, Three, Four, Five, Six, Seven, Eight, Nine, Ten, Gravity, Vision, and Vision25.
Looking at such a large number of trademarks, it appears that Simple is setting up the base for their future products and/or platforms of products. The filed trademarks from Two to Ten are unnamed and can be swapped with the particular name of the product or the platform the company will plan to introduce in the future.
Simple Energy made its market debut with the launch of the Simple One electric scooter in August 2021. While its deliveries were initially about to begin in June this year, after multiple delays, the company is now claiming to start deliveries in the first quarter of 2023. It is offered in two variants with launch prices ranging from Rs 1.10 lakh to Rs 1.45 lakh, ex-showroom.
Speaking of the deliveries of the Simple One electric scooter, they are delayed till Q1 2023 yet again. Simple Energy have recently announced the delay in the commencement of deliveries of their One electric scooters. They have pushed the deliveries to Q1 2023, i.e. anywhere from January to March 2023.
The reason stated by Simple Energy for this further delay of 3 months is the new battery safety guideline introduced recently by MoRTH. Simple Energy says that their decision to delay the delivery will allow them to ensure that the Simple One electric scooter complies with the new safety standards.
