Fact Check: Is Patanjali E-Cycle Really Coming? Or Just Fake News on the Loose?

“Bro! Patanjali Just Dropped an E-Cycle for ₹5,555!”

Wait… what?

Yep. That’s what half of India’s internet was screaming last week.

From WhatsApp forwards and YouTube shorts to Reels with flashy red arrows and AI voiceovers — everyone was going crazy over the news that Patanjali is launching an electric cycle that costs less than a month’s groceries. Some even claimed it could run up to 440 km on a single charge. For context — even premium EVs don’t pull that off.

So, the real question is: Is any of this true? Or are we all being taken for a digital ride?

Let’s clear the air — like friends chatting over chai. ☕


Modern electric bicycle with 'FAKE NEWS' stamp — Patanjali EV rumor
This image represents the false claims about a Patanjali electric cycle launch in 2025.

The Big Fat Rumor

The buzz started with a bunch of short-form videos that looked… believable enough.

  • Voiceover? Robotic.

  • Images? Probably from Pinterest.

  • Link in the bio? Sketchy at best.

  • And the specs? Honestly, too good to be true.

These videos claimed:

  • Patanjali launched an electric cycle for ₹5,555

  • It has a range of 150 to 440 km

  • It’s already available for booking

  • And it’s “Made in Bharat” revolution by Baba Ramdev himself

It all sounds so patriotic, affordable, and Swadeshi-awesome — until you take a closer look.


So… What’s Actually True?

Spoiler alert: None of it. Not even a little bit.

Let’s break it down gently:

❌ No product exists

There is no e-cycle listed on Patanjali’s official website. Check it yourself. Nothing. Zero. Zilch.

❌ No announcement from Baba Ramdev

The man speaks on everything from yoga to politics to food habits. But not once has he hinted at an electric vehicle—cycle or otherwise.

❌ No official media coverage

Major news outlets like NDTV, TOI, Indian Express, Hindustan Times? Not a single story.

❌ No real product page, specs, or launch date

You’d think something this big would have… I don’t know… a landing page? A tweet? A press event? Nope.


️ People Across India (and Abroad!) Fell for It

This wasn’t just limited to Delhi or Lucknow. We saw it trending across:

  • Uttar Pradesh

  • Bihar

  • Madhya Pradesh

  • Maharashtra

  • Even Indian communities in UAE, Qatar, and Nepal started asking:

“Can we get this cycle in Dubai?”
“Where’s the international booking site?”

The fact that people from all over genuinely believed it shows how powerful a well-timed fake video can be.


Why Are So Many Falling for It?

It’s not just clickbait. This story works because it taps into three powerful emotions:

  1. Hope – Affordable, eco-friendly transport? Sounds like a dream!

  2. Trust – People trust Patanjali. It’s been in Indian homes for years.

  3. FOMO – “If I don’t book now, I’ll miss the deal!”

But the internet plays tricks. And this time, it fooled millions.


The Dark Side of AI-Generated Content

Let’s be real: this isn’t just gossip—it’s engineered virality.

Fake creators now use AI voices, AI scripts, and even AI-generated images to build fake products. It looks “newsy.” It sounds “official.” But it’s all fluff.

Some of these clips even link you to shady pages where they try to steal your data or push you toward scammy e-commerce sites.

Pro tip: Don’t trust any “book now” links that aren’t on official brand websites.


✅ What You Should Do Instead

If you’re reading this, you already care about facts over forwards. Here’s how to keep it that way:

  1. Always Google before you forward
    Even if your uncle sent it to the family group.

  2. Visit official websites
    If Patanjali was launching an e-cycle, it’d be everywhere.

  3. Think twice before clicking “Order Now”
    Especially if it’s under ₹10,000 and sounds too magical.


FAQs: Answering Your Burning Questions

Q. Is Patanjali really launching an electric cycle in 2025?
A. Nope. There’s no real product or official statement. Just viral hoaxes.

Q. But I saw a YouTube video with a real cycle!
A. That was likely a random stock video reused to sell the story. Clever, but not real.

Q. Can I pre-book this cycle?
A. Absolutely not. If you see a link — don’t click it. You’re being targeted.

Q. Will Patanjali launch EVs in the future?
A. Who knows! But as of July 2025, they haven’t stepped into the electric vehicle space yet.


Final Word: Breathe. Verify. Then Believe.

India’s EV revolution is very real. Brands like Ola, Ather, Hero, and TVS are pushing boundaries every month. So it’s not crazy to believe that Patanjali might enter the game someday.

But for now? This electric cycle you’re hearing about?

❌ It’s fake.
❗ It’s misleading.
✅ And now, you know better.

So do your part — don’t just forward the rumor. Forward the truth.

Disclaimer (Just Between Us):

Hey, just putting this out there — this blog isn’t sponsored, endorsed, or connected to Patanjali Ayurved or any brand mentioned. Everything you’ve read above comes from hours of research, trusted public sources, and a whole lot of fact-checking (yes, even at 2 AM with chai in hand ) — as accurate as possible up to July 2025.

We’re not lawyers, we’re not influencers — just real people trying to keep the internet a little more honest. Any names, logos, or images belong to their original owners — we’re simply here to make sense of all the buzz. For anything official, always check the brand’s real website or legit media.


Note to You (Yes, You Reading This ):

Let’s be real — the internet’s full of noise. Every day there’s a new “big thing,” and it’s hard to tell what’s true anymore. That’s why we wrote this — not to jump on a trend, but to cut through the confusion and help someone (maybe you) avoid getting misled.

So if you learned something here today — awesome. If it made you pause before forwarding that next viral video — even better. And if it helped protect someone from falling for fake news — then this little article did something good.

From one internet user to another:
✨ Stay curious.
Double-check before you share.
And never stop asking, “Is this actually real?”

Because truth doesn’t need clickbait — it just needs someone to read it, believe it, and pass it on.

Thanks for being that someone. ❤️
