E-rickshaws are a common choice for short city and town trips, and the battery is one of the main factors affecting how many trips they can complete between charges and how consistently the vehicle stays in service. Okaya's current e-rickshaw battery range has five tubular, ICAT-approved models from 120Ah to 145Ah, with 7 to 15 months of warranty. This guide explains what daily urban use demands from a battery and how to choose from Okaya's range.
An e-rickshaw battery supplies the energy for a day's trips. Its capacity, build and condition are important factors affecting daily range and battery-related downtime. Urban use is demanding: frequent stops and starts, passenger loads and daily charging cycles all put repeated stress on the battery.
Because the vehicle runs on a battery rather than a fuel engine, it produces no exhaust at the point of use, but its day-to-day performance still depends significantly on using the right battery size and keeping the battery properly maintained.
Look for the right capacity and voltage for your vehicle, a build designed for daily deep cycling, and a warranty period that matches how heavily you use it.
Capacity (Ah): a higher capacity stores more energy per charge, which helps on longer or heavier routes.
Construction: tubular batteries are designed for repeated charge and discharge in daily commercial use. Okaya's e-rickshaw batteries are 100% tubular and ICAT approved.
Warranty: a longer warranty period gives longer defined coverage, which you may prefer for daily commercial use.
Service: buy from an authorised dealer so service is available locally.
If you are not sure how many batteries your vehicle needs, the guide on how many batteries an e-rickshaw uses explains it step by step.
Okaya's current range has five models in four series: ECO Rider, PRO Rider, PRO+ Rider and MAX Rider. Capacity runs from 120Ah to 145Ah and warranty from 7 to 15 months. Older material mentions models such as 130Ah, 145Ah PRO+ and 150Ah, which are not part of the current range.

Okaya states that its e-rickshaw batteries typically deliver 70 to 120 km on a full charge, depending on capacity and driving conditions such as passenger load, road condition and driving style. A standard charger usually takes 8 to 10 hours, making an overnight charging window practical for many daily-use schedules.
Consistent charging and basic checks matter more than any single feature:
Charge fully after the day's run and avoid leaving the battery deeply discharged.
Use a charger suited to your battery pack's nominal voltage and battery type.
Keep terminals clean and tight, and look for swelling or leakage.
Avoid regularly overloading the vehicle.
