Best electric scooters in India: In most parts of India, petrol prices have crossed the dreaded Rs 100 mark, making it hard for people to commute daily. The high fuel price is finally forcing people to consider alternative modes of transportation, and for two-wheelers, electric scooters are now looking more attractive. These run on electricity which is easily available in most houses, and running costs come down dramatically. Add to that, many state governments are now offering special subsidies for buying EVs in the country. So, if you want to kickstart the EV journey, here are some of the best budget electric scooters you can buy in India for under Rs 70,000.
