Yatri Motorcycles
Reimagining the Digital Experience for Nepal's Premier Electric Motorcycles
about yatri motorcycles - instrument cluster
The Yatri P2 Instrument Cluster project delivers an intuitive dashboard interface for Nepal's pioneering electric motorcycle. I designed a clean, functional display that communicates critical riding data like battery status, range estimates, and performance metrics while maintaining Yatri's premium aesthetic within limited screen space.

challenge
Beyond the visible problems of limited display space, missing ride data, and UI inconsistencies, deeper challenges included:
Technical constraints of the onboard computer system
Designing for varying lighting conditions and riders in motion
Addressing range anxiety through intuitive battery visualization
Maintaining Yatri's premium design language
Prioritizing critical alerts without distracting riders
process
My approach followed a structured methodology:
Research & Discovery
Analyzed competitive motorcycle interfaces
Collaborated with engineers to understand technical limitations
Interviewed riders to identify information priorities
Information Architecture
Created hierarchy based on rider needs and safety requirements
Developed screen flows for different riding modes
Mapped critical versus secondary information placement
Wireframing & Testing
Developed layouts testing different information arrangements
Validated designs through simulated riding scenarios
Iterated based on visibility and comprehension testing
Visual Design Development
Created a cohesive visual system with consistent iconography
Designed for both day and night viewing modes
Implemented animation concepts for transitions
Prototype & Validation
Built interactive prototypes simulating riding conditions
Tested with Yatri team and potential customers
Refined based on usability findings and technical feasibility
Outcome
The redesigned instrument cluster successfully delivered:
Enhanced rider confidence through clear battery status and range indicators
Improved safety with more quickly viewable critical information
Successful implementation within technical constraints
Strong alignment with Yatri's premium brand positioning
Significantly improved user satisfaction and intuitive operation
The instrument cluster now serves as a key differentiator for Yatri in the premium electric motorcycle market and has become a signature element of the P2's rider experience.
