Introduction

In India, the electric revolution is underway; this transformation is most striking where it matters most: on the nation’s busy urban roads.

Urban areas in the nation are witnessing a revolution in the adoption of EVs, with customers looking for more innovative, economical alternatives to traditional petrol scooters.
