Electric two-wheelers are not only becoming mainstream, but they are now being preferred too, at least in metro cities. With new electric two-wheeler launches almost every month, we list out the best electric scooters that you can buy in India today. 

 

TVS X

TVS X 37

The TVS X is India’s latest and most expensive electric scooter right now, priced at Rs. 2.5 lakh (ex-showroom). The X has been developed from the ground up at TVS Motor’s R&D facility, claiming segment leading vehicle dynamics, performance, software, and features. It gets a 4.4 kWh battery pack combined with an electric motor which is ram air cooled and produces peak power of 11 kW (approximately 14.75 bhp), and continuous power output of 7 kW (9.38 bhp). Peak torque is rated at 40 Nm and claimed acceleration from 0-40 kmph is in just 2.6 seconds with a claimed maximum speed of 105 kmph. The X has a claimed IDC (Indian Driving Cycle) range of 140 km on a single charge, and the Smart X Home rapid charger is claimed to deliver 0-50 per cent charging in just 50 minutes. The TVS X gets a 10.25-inch TFT console loaded to the gills with customisable options, apart from all the required features you can think of from a contemporary electric scooter. Bluetooth connectivity with music playback and built-in navigation system through the NavPro system are a given. And when the X is stationary, you can also access entertainment like playing games and watching games on the console, using the PlayTech entertainment system. There’s cruise control, hill-hold, as well as reverse assist on the X.

Ather Energy launched the Ather 450X Gen 3 electric scooter earlier this year, and the version introduced some important updates. It now gets a 3.7 kWh battery which is good enough for a true range of 105 km per charge. Both variants of Ather’s scooter are identical in a mechanical sense. The base 450X employs the same 3.7 kWh battery as the 450X Pro Pack. As a result, it also offers the same, ARAI-certified range of up to 146 kilometres (real-world range of up to 105 km). Even the base 450X’s peak motor output remains the same at 6.4 kW (8.58 bhp) and 26 Nm of torque and indicated top speed (90 kmph) as well as the 0-40 kmph acceleration time (3.3 seconds) are also identical to the top-spec 450X Pro Pack’s. The Ather 450X is priced at Rs. 1.45 lakh while the 450X Pro is priced at Rs. 1.65 lakh (ex-showroom).

Bajaj Chetak

Bajaj Chetak

The Bajaj Chetak is the oldest scooter in this list, launched in 2020. It has a nice retro look and is built solidly. The centre-piece on the Chetak is the circular negative LCD display which shows a decent bit of info but is not the easiest to read, especially in bright daylight. It gets a decent set of features as well. The Chetak gets a 2.884 kWh battery and 3.8 kW of max power along with peak torque of 20 Nm. The scooter has a maximum range of 108 km, which is perhaps the lowest in this list and a top speed of 63 kmph. It has a charging time of four hours. Currently, it is priced at Rs. 1.15 lakh (ex-showroom, Bengaluru), which makes it affordable.
