The official Gogoro Jego price in Nepal starts at Rs. 2,29,900 for Single Battery Option and Rs. 2,44,900 for Dual Battery Option.

Nebula has opened its first showroom at Naxal, Kathmandu. It will launch two models: the Gogoro Jego and Gogoro Pulse Ultra.

In addition, Nebula is moving forward with an ambitious plan to establish 45 battery swapping stations across the Kathmandu valley, strategically placing them every 2-3 km for maximum convenience.

To access those swapping stations, users are required to buy subscription plan which starts at NRs 799 for 30 days, with various options designed to meet different needs, whether for students, professionals, or daily commuters.

Pricing is based on the energy used, calculated by the Ampere-hour (Ah) rate, ensuring that each plan is tailored to the user’s specific travel and energy requirements.

Gogoro Jego Price in Nepal

Dual Battery Option Rs. 244900

Talking about competition, one of the competitors for the Gogoro Jego will be the Segway E125.

From a performance standpoint, both the Gogoro Jego and Segway E125 deliver similar power outputs. However, while the E125 takes up to six hours to charge, the Jego offers swappable battery technology, eliminating the need for long charging times.

This feature alone could be a key deciding factor for consumers when choosing between the Jego and the E125 or other electric scooters.

That said, the E125 comes packed with more advanced features than the Jego, including Cruise Control, a Smart Battery Management System, Remote Key Control, and ABS, making it a compelling choice for those prioritizing features.

Segway E125 price in Nepal is Rs. 3.91 Lakhs, but Gogoro Jego price in Nepal starts at Rs. 2.29 Lakhs which makes Jego even more appealing.

Considering all the factors Jego appears to be a more persuasive choice offering greater convenience and practicality for urban mobility with its battery-swapping technology and price.
