Tork Motors, India’s first electric motorcycle maker, has appointed former Yamaha India Senior Vice President Roy Kurian as head of Sales & Marketing, of its flagship product T6X. Roy will focus on introducing T6X to the world with its launch from the Pune office. He will also focus on strategic tie ups, marketing & distribution of the forthcoming models.
Roy joins Tork Motors after his 15 years stint at Yamaha India, a player in scooters & premium segment motorcycles. Kapil Shelke, CEO & Founder, Tork Motors, said, “We are delighted to have a veteran like Roy join our team. We are set to achieve a strong impact on launch of India’s first electric motorcycle and are banking on the wealth of information and experience Roy brings to the table."
“I am excited to be a part of the ‘future’ and it is the right time to dive in, learn & create a path for the inevitable EV space,” said Roy Kurian. Work on T6X began in mid 2015 and the first prototype was unveiled in September 2016. With Bharat Forge coming on board as a strategic partner in early 2018, Tork Motors has made progress on two fronts rapidly - technology and skilled resources. With T6X in its final stages, Tork plans its launch in Pune followed by Bangalore and other cities in India soon.
