Speaking on the development, Rushii Senghani (CEO and Founder of Earth Energy) said
“We are really happy with the way the Glyde SX & SX+ variants have performed. Our vehicles have been put through 7 lakh testing kilometres and even today the bike has performed admirably, with it being put rigorously through its paces. The Glyde is a no fuss, reliable and efficient modern scooter that is made for the modern commuter.”
