Best electric bikes and scooters in India that you can buy right now



With the petrol prices reaching sky-high in India, many of you might have started considering the value of buying an electric vehicle. While the four-wheeler segment is yet to take off, the two-wheeler market has a wide array of options for buyers. An electric scooter or bike gives you the liberty to use the vehicle without hunting for a gas station. And that is a big money saver these days. You can consider brands like Ather, Bajaj, TVS and Hero, which are catering to the demands of all riders in the EV market. So, here are the best electric bikes and scooters you can buy in India.

Best Electric bikes and scooters in India
1. Ather 450/450X



Ather from India introduced the 450 electric scooters that epitomised how the segment is likely to develop in the country. The company has since then come out with the upgraded Ather 450X model for buyers. This scooter features a 2.7kWh battery that promises a riding range of up to 116 km, depending on external conditions. The built-in battery takes around 5 hours to fully charge which is pretty decent for an EV bike or scooter these days. And your riding range is also dependent on how fast you are moving. The top speed notched by this best electric scooter is 80 kmph. Ather 450 and 450X score heavily because of their looks. The futuristic design adopted by the company has appealed to many buyers, who are willing to overlook the total cost of owning the scooter.
Ather 450 starts Rs 1.27 lakh (ex-showroom Delhi). In addition to this, you have to pay Rs 2,000 or more that takes care of maintenance, spare part and repair cost.

2. Revolt RV400

The Revolt RV400 looks like a regular sports commuter motorcycle but turn the ignition on and you notice it doesn't make any noise. That's because it is an electric bike. Revolt RV400 packs a 4kW electric motor, offering 170Nm torque, with a claimed top speed of 85km/hr and a riding range of up to 150km per charge. The bike gets a 3.24kW removable battery, which is charged inside homes in under 5 hours. For safety, it has disc brakes on both sides.

Getting a Revolt RV 400 will look cheaper because you pay a fixed amount of over 3000 per month to the company. The total cost comes to well over Rs 1,40,000 in the market.
