When we think of electric two-wheelers in India, low power scooters with short-range come to mind. However, this is no longer the case for loyal automakers launching powerful electric scooters in the country.
While the electric bike division is still lagging behind in terms of options, that will change very soon. Hero, EeVe, and Evolet showcased their electric bikes at Auto Expo 2020, promising a few launches this year.
Before we take a look at the upcoming electric bikes in India, let's take a look at the Revolt RV400, an existing electric bike, its features, and range.
