We all know Electric is the Future! Electric Vehicles are getting really very popular in the Indian market in recent times. Though the EV ecosystem in India is still in the nascent stage, people have started considering them as an affordable personal green mobility solution. The automakers, especially two-wheeler makers now want to have at least one EV in their portfolio. So, today in this article, we have listed for you the Top Five Upcoming Electric Scooters in India in 2021.
Upcoming Electric Scooters in India in 2021:
Hero eMaestro Edge
Hero MotoCorp - India's largest two-wheeler manufacturer, doesn't have any electric two-wheeler in their portfolio yet. We got to see the new Hero eMaestro exclusively last year and we believe it might be launched in India this year. The eMaestro will share its cycle parts with the regular Maestro but will get new mechanicals. There are no details about its specs as of now but we expect to deliver around 80-100 kms of range on a single charge. It is expected to be priced around Rs. 1.20 lakhs, Ex-showroom Delhi.
Suzuki Burgman Electric
The upcoming new Suzuki Burgman Electric has been spied on test in India several times. The Burgman Electric will be most likely the first electric two-wheeler offering from this Japanese two-wheeler manufacturer in India. It will get an electric motor coupled with a lithium-ion battery pack. It might also deliver around 80-100 kilometres of range on a single charge and a top speed of around 80 kmph. The Suzuki Burgman Electric will be most likely launched this year and will be priced around Rs. 1.30 lakhs, Ex-showroom.

Ola Electric Scooter
Ola is betting big on its upcoming electric scooter. The company has set up a new manufacturing plant in Tamil Nadu and it is claimed to be the world's largest scooter plant. The upcoming new Ola electric scooter will look quite futuristic and it is expected to be a re-branded or an enhanced version of the Etergo BV's Appscooter. It is expected to have a riding range of around 200 kilometres on a single charge with connected tech features. The new upcoming Ola EV is expected to be launched in India by June this year.
Okinawa Electric Cruiser
Okinawa Scooters is one of the fastest-growing electric two-wheeler makers in the country. The company has a lot of li-ion electric scooters in its Indian portfolio. Okinawa also showcased an electric maxi-scooter (cruiser) at the Auto Expo 2020 and it is expected to be launched in India this year. The new Okinawa Electric Cruiser will get a 3 kW brushless electric motor with a top speed of 100 kmph. It will get a 4 kW lithium-ion battery which will take 2-8 hours for a full charge, depending on the charger.
Honda PCX-based Electric Scooter
Finally, the last electric scooter in our listicle is the Honda PCX Electric. The Japanese two-wheeler manufacturer recently patented this electric scooter in the Indian market. However, we believe Honda won't launch the PCX in India, instead, they will be getting into the EV space of the country with an all-new electric scooter that will be developed specifically for the Indian market. There aren't any details but we expect it to deliver around 80-100 kms of range per charge and price around Rs. 1.40 lakhs, Ex-showroom.
