Luna, an iconic name in the Indian moped market, is set to make a grand comeback. Kinetic Energy, a leading company in the electric vehicle industry, is reviving the adored model Luna.

In a nostalgic tribute to the Luna’s rich heritage, Motwani shared a picture on Twitter, featuring her father, Arun Firodia, riding the iconic Luna, along with a vintage Chal Meri Luna advertisement. “A blast from the past!! ‘Chal Meri Luna’ and it’s creator.. my father, Padmashree Mr. Arun Firodia! Watch this space for something revolutionary & exciting from Kinetic Green….u r right …it’s “e Luna,” read the caption of the post.

Enthusiasts and industry watchers have been eagerly awaiting a glimpse of the e Luna, and their patience has finally been rewarded with the recent leak of an image online. The leaked photo provides a tantalising first look of the vehicle. From the image, it is pretty evident that the e Luna retains the original model’s signature design cues, including a tubular frame.

The e Luna features a square headlamp housing and an instrument console on top, reminiscent of its classic predecessor. The comfortable riding experience is ensured with a two-piece flat seat and a spacious horizontal footboard, providing ample room for riders. Kinetic has infused the e Luna with a touch of sophistication by using a black base color contrasted with vibrant red accents, adding a modern twist to the timeless design.
